You really can afford a totally sweet upright bike mount without totally depleting your budget. That means you’ll have plenty of cash left over for life’s other necessities – like inner tubes, cheap brewskis and ramen noodles.
* Fits 1” to 3” diameter downtubes (most shapes and frame materials)
* Secures wheels with ratcheting wheel straps
* No problem handling

Pros
Holds bikes, lasted 10+ years still going. Service is great.
Cons
Does not stay black, replacement keys are expensive.
Review
I have the discontinued rack. You do not need to remove the front wheel so it is faster and if your bike is muddy, cleaner.

Review
Easy to remove from the car rack if you are going to carry big stuff on your rack like canoes or plywood. Great as an extra or add on tray. The "Areo" version of this rack is a few bucks more, but it comes with the Yakima "mighty mounts" so it will fit factory rack cars.

Pros
Easy To Attach To Car, Easy To Secure Bike
Cons
Stiff Wheel Tiedown
Review
Affordable bike carrier for the Yakima lineup. Fits many styles of frame design and easily adjustable for different sizes. If your bike does not have quick release front wheels, or you have a disc brake that limits the number of carriers you can choose from, this is a good alternative.
