Hey Sarah! Yes, you can remove the bike rack from the Yakima EXO Swing Away 2 Bike Rack w/ Enclosed Cargo Carrier # Y34ZR and add an extra Yakima GearLocker # Y44VR to the top. Are you wanting to use both configurations? If you only want the two cargo boxes it is available in that configuration as well # Y74ZR.

Hey Sarah, how did your setup go with the Yakima EXO Swing Away system? Did swapping the bike rack for the extra GearLocker work the way you wanted? Your update could make it easier for others planning a similar combo.
