Yakima Ridgeback 2 Bike Rack Length When Folded for Storage
Updated 06/04/2014 | Published 06/03/2014
Question:
Im thinking about buying the Ridgeback 2 bike carrier for a 2013 Toyota RAV4 but am wondering about the dimensions of the main pole of the rack when the rack is folded up i.e. off the vehicle for storage. Im mainly trying to determine if the rack will fit in the back of the SUV when taken off or if it would be too wide laid on its side. Ive attached an image of the dimension Im interested in. Thanks.

I spoke to my contact at Yakima and he informed me that the length of the Yakima Ridgeback 2 bike carrier part # Y02457 that you referenced is 42 inches when in the storage position.
I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out also.
