Will the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack Clear the Bumper on a 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness?

Question:

Will this bike rack work with a a 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness with a 2” receiver? Will it clear the hatch? Or do I need an extension?

Congrats on the new car! It should work just fine but it depends on what hitch you have installed. I can tell you exactly what to measure to confirm though. The closest portion of the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # Y75AR is 5-1/2" from the center of your hitch's hitch pin hole. You'll want to measure from your Subaru's hitch pin hole out to the edge of your bumper. If it's any distance less than 5-1/2" you'll be good.

What kind of bikes do you have?

@Jk You're welcome! Happy to help! Those are nice bikes. Looks like none of them have fenders so the wheel hooks on the StageTwo item # Y75AR are going to be perfect.
