Which Bike Rack Will Fit L Trek Farley Fat Bike With 5 Wide Tires?
Published 01/11/2021
Question:
Can you confirm if a Yakima Single speed hitch rack will work with a size L Trek Farley fat bike. I know the spec says fatbikes with tires up to 5 inches but Farleys have 27.5 inch wheels with 4.8 inch tires. Ive read comments on some sites where customers say it wont work with their Farley. Yakima was no help. They said it should work .

The Yakima Single Speed # Y02481 will work great for your L Trek Farley fat bike.
This bike rack allows up to 5" wide tires and up to 29" tall wheels, so you will not have to worry about fitment issues.
The Yakima Single Speed comes with very long wheel straps in order to wrap around very wide tires on fat bikes.
I have attached a demonstration video for this bike rack.
