Question

Question:

Hello, I’m looking for the strap replacement for my Tesla bike rack. It’s made by Yakima. Do you know if the ones from the link fit? https://www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Yakima/Y8890297.html

Hello Gilberto,

Thank you for the links, they were most helpful. The Tesla bike rack that you have is identical to the Yakima FullTilt 4. Yes, the Replacement ZipStrip Straps for Yakima Standard Bike Rack Cradles - Qty 2 # Y8890297 are the correct strap replacement.

What kind of bike do you have? Do you have a trail near by you like to ride? We have the Katy Trail here in Missouri, and it is always loaded with bikes!

Hey Gilberto, Did the Replacement ZipStrip Straps work well with your Tesla bike rack? I'm curious because it could help others with similar racks make the right choice.

@KateF Hi Kate, thank you for your help, I just bought them 2 weeks ago and they are the right ones. They work for the Tesla bike rack. If you need, I can send some pictures. Regards.
