## Description

desertcart.com : Yakima Steel HoldUp Tray-Style Hitch Bike Rack, Fits Up to 2 Bicycles, 1.25" Hitch Size : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Very happy with HoldUp Tray (with two suggestions) - I did a lot of research before I decided to purchase the Yakima HoldUp Tray Style Bike Rack. During my research phase I happened to be in Summit County in the mountains of Colorado. The local buses has bike racks for riders and all the buses have tray style mounts. It made me shift from a hanging style rack to tray. If buses choose try style given the endless variations of bikes there must be a reason. I studied the physics of bike carriers and realized the hanging style racks that connect via 2" or 1.25" hitch mount put a lot of stress on the rack and trailer hitch. Certainly they are engineered for the stress, but why put needless stress into the equation in the first place. I also noticed the tray style racks actively manage the sway and inter-play between bikes. The hanging style allow bikes to sway and potentially knock into each other. They require bungie cords or straps to hold the front tires in place. Tray mounts on the other hand actively hold the bikes preventing swaying and knocking into each other. The final reason I chose a tray mount was visibility. All the hanging mounts obstruct the rear windows of the vehicle. This obstruction is guaranteed when bikes are mounted. The tray style does not obstruct the window and in many cases the bikes don't raise the the level of obstructing the rear windows. This obstruction or lack thereof does have a downside for tray style. They are not visible when backing up creating an increased risk of backing into something. After all my research it came down to two choices; 1) YAKIMA 2) THULE. Both offer "Systems" that enhance the synergy of purchasing bike rack, roof cargo carriers and kayak holders. Things like universal keying (one key for all locks) and common tools which is convenient. Both have excellent quality reputations. What swayed my decision was two things: 1) Quantity of bikes - the Yakima tray system allows up to four bikes 2) Bike, Cargo and Kayak systems - we plan to purchase all three mounting systems and strongly desire the ability to key them all the same YAKIMA The HoldUp Tray Bike Rack is extremely well made. From the gauge of steel to the paint to the securing mechanisms everything is high quality. This quality comes at the cost of weight. The rack is rather heavy and that is especially the case when you add the additional 2 bike attachment (allowing 4 bikes to be carried). Assembly was straightforward and the instructions clear and easy to follow. It took me about 60~90 minutes to assemble. I took my time first unpacking all the parts, reading through the instructions twice and slowly assembling the unit. It could easily be assembled in approximately 45~30 minutes if you have two people. Mounting is obviously easy simply inserting the bike rack into the trailer hitch. It can be cumbersome given the weight. The mounting pin (inserts through the rack and trailer hitch) is threaded and screws in easily. The final tightening can be tedious because there is little space between the pin/bolt, the mounting rack and the hitch mounting apparatus. The mechanism to swing the loaded tray mount down to access the rear vehicle doors is very very nice. It is easy given the squeeze clip-n-pin. Of course swinging the rack back up into place loaded with bikes requires significant strength (you are lifting bikes and the heavy gauge tray mount after all). The mechanism to fold the rack up up against the vehicle is nice when not carrying bikes. It interfered with my SUV's backup sensors so I was force to toggle those off when I had the empty tray mount folded upwards. SUGGESTIONS After mounting and unmounting the rack several times I made a changes to make it much easier. A) I purchased separate ratchet wrench (not socket but ratcheted wrench) making it much much easier to thread and tighten/untighten the mounting pin. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND purchasing a ratcheting wrench. B) I bought a Sharpie Oil-Based Paint Marker Medium Point Silver and once I had the rack inserted properly into the hitch I drew a line with the marker on the hitch and mount. This line allows me to single handedly insert the rack into the hitch exactly the right depth without having to stop, check, and push/pull the rack to align the mounting hole. Given the marker was permanent and a bit "runny" I chose to surround the areas I was drawing on with masking tape. This kept excess marker ink from bleeding all over the metal around where I was drawing. I like my stuff to look good. If these two changes are not clearly described simply respond and I'll get a couple photos uploaded. These changes makes the process of solo installing and uninstalling much easier and faster. Yes they involve a $6 permanent paint marker and a $20 wrench, but well worth the investment.
Review: Solid, quality rack, worth the $ - I love this rack. The bad. Its heavy and awkward to carry and store. The good. It heavy, as in SOLID. Rack doesnt move, bikes dont move. I was skeptical at first but as long as you have the front tire locked in at the right position near the front fork, you are good to go. Mounting the bikes is a piece of cake. I wish the security cable was longer and thicker but I purchased an additional cable to wrap both bikes to the rack in addition to the ones on this. The rack locks to the hitch and the bikes to the hitch. Only complaint is that tilting rack with bikes on is difficult and they do make a version with a tilt mechanism in the front but at a higher cost. This is a nice rack that is well worth the price. And my previous rack was a Yakima. And they came through for me on a warranty issue without a problem. That is another reason I picked this one over Kuat and Thule. Purchase with confidence.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Met all my expectations and more
*by J***R on June 2, 2014*

Was on the fence between this Yakima and the Thule 917 and decided to go Yakima. I dont have experience with either one so my decision was really just based on videos I saw on how they work. I have to say I've used the rack twice so far and am pleased in every way. The quality of workmanship, and operation is just perfect. Put two heavy touring bikes on the rack (which is installed on my Mini Cooper btw) and worked great! I should note that this is the 1 1/4" version, NOT the 2" version but other than the hitch mount size, they are identical. The 2" allows you to add an extension for two additional bikes but my car cant handle the load of 4 bikes hanging off the back so I went with the smaller mount size. I will say that even with two heavy bikes, with the mount bolt tightened adequately, which doesn't take a lot of effort (you just tighten down so the washer catches) there was NO movement on the road of the rack at the hitch point. There is a TINY amount at the join of the where the rack tilts up but this is expected and was still WAY less than I thought. I had an old Saris hitch type rack where the bikes hung from the top tube and this is about 1000% better in my opinion. Easier to get the bike in, and they dont move side to side to bang into each other at ALL. Plus, no contact with the frame at all which means no rub marks in the bikes paint, or scratches. Take a look at the video for how it works and installs. Otherwise, cant say enough good things about this rack. Holds any kind of bike and works like a charm!
