Hello, the teeth on the strap seem large for the fullswing I have. Mine is maybe 4 years old - were there straps different for an older version? Thank you, Tom

@TomN Those are the correct straps for the FullSwing Bike Rack # Y02465 manufactured before 2015 with standard cradles. After 2015 Yakima switched to their SuperCush cradles and use the ZipStrip Straps # Y55XR. The SuperCush cradles will have a black release button while the standard cradles had a gray release button.

Answer 1

I wouldn't be very happy if I just go a new damaged Yakima BackSwing, part #Y02483, either. The good news is that yours actually isn't. The BackSwing has an intentional bend in it that looks like a dent. Yakima designed it that way on purpose…

Since you got the FullSwing in 2016, and your cradle has a black release button (thank you for the photo by the way), unfortunately the 8890297 you got are incorrect. So what you need are the Replacement ZipStrip Straps for Yakima SuperCush Bike Rack…

I do have a solution for you other than getting rid of the whole Yakima FullSwing Bike Rack #Y02465. But unfortunately, in order to change out the lock core, the locks would need to be unlocked. You would either need to drill out the lock core and…

I have a solution for you, but unfortunately the Yakima HangOver 4 Bike Rack #Y02484 only works with bikes that have suspension forks. A nice carrier that you could look into is the Swagman 4 Bike Rack for 2" Hitches #S64940. This is a very easy…

Looks like you have an older Yakima SwingDaddy so the correct replacement spring pin would be the part #8890314. If instead you are looking for a replacement hitch pin that secures it to the trailer hitch you would want the part #889-0231

Answer 11

The anti-rattle device/locking device of the Yakima Ridgeback bike racks like the part #Y02459 that you referenced are basically combined and if the anti-rattle is unlocked that knob is disconnected from the anti-rattle and will spin freely. So what…

I do have an option for you but the SpeedKnob is not something that you can just replace with a standard hitch pin lock. The SpeedKnob serves two purposes, to lock the bike rack inside the receiver tube and to wedge the shank against the inside of…
