I have an older Holdup model, but this current one fits just perfect. They have improved the wheel strap design, and include a few extra parts—such as the hitch pin, and pin that locks the rack in the upright position. It was nice to replace a few beat up parts! The keyed locks did not match my original, but Yakima has a process to request new ones. Really happy with it—and glad etrailer doesn’t have an oversized freight charge for shipping!



by:

This rack is heavy once attached to the base unit, but ROCK SOLID! I have no worries of bikes shifting or bouncing around. It takes two people to install and remove the rack when set up for all four bikes. If i am only taking 1-2 bikes, I definitely remove this from the base unit to make it more manageable.



by:

Very happy with etrailer and the add on bike carrier. Excellent communication throughout and felt very comfortable though the shipping and receiving even though it was during shortages and covid.



by:

Great price on the +2 extender for my Holdup. Just installed with no issues, thanks to clear instructions from the etrailer.com website.



by:

Ultra heavy-duty setup and the weight capacity crushes everything else on the market. Pair the four bike setup (HoldUp and a Plus 2) with a BackSwing for the ultimate bike hauling experience. Works with large and heavy bikes, ala electric.



by:

Did not get this far. Wrong hitch bolt



by:

Great to purchase from etrailer as always. Prompt service and delivery. Will always do business with them.

Super fast shipping. Arrived in 2 days. Excellent product. Function, fit and finish is great.

  • Recommended Add-On Kit For Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack
    In order to add an extension to be able to carry an additional 2 bikes on a Yakima HoldUp bike carrier like part # Y02443, you would need a bit more than just part # Y8890279 and the wheel trays. You would need the upright masts needed to secure the bike frame to the extension, so I recommend part # Y02446 to make sure you have all the components needed to be able to carry 2 more bikes.

    To convert your Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack for 2" Hitches # Y02443 so that it will fit a 1-1/4" hitch receiver you need the Replacement Tongue # 8880581 along with the Hardware Kit # Y90195.

  • Comparing the Yakima HoldUp 2 Part # Y02443 with the Kuat Transfer 2
    For your 2017 Lexus NX, the best bike rack for you is going to depend on the type of bikes you have and how often you plan to carry them. Both the Kuat Transfer 2 part # KU74FR and the Yakima HoldUp 2 part # Y02443 are excellent bike racks that will work well for you. However, I recommend the Yakima HoldUp as it has a bit more features that will work with your bikes and vehicle better than the Kuat Transfer will. For starters, the HoldUp can carry bikes weighing up to 60 lbs each whereas...

  • Quality Hitch Bike Rack Recommendation for 4 New Mountain Bikes with Disc Brakes
    Another 4 bike rack I would have you consider is the Yakima HoldUp, item # Y02443, along with the Plus 2 Adapter for HoldUp 2 Bike Carrier, 2 inch Hitches, item # Y02446. This rack is a wheel mount style for ease of loading and unloading the bikes and secures the bikes, keeping them from contacting each other or the back of the vehicle. This style is also a good choice for mountain bikes with suspensions because it is it does not compress the frame of the bike and wear the shocks.

  • What is the Difference Between the 2 Yakima HoldUp Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Racks
    The Yakima HoldUp comes in 2 versions: one only fits 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receivers, # Y02445, and the other only fits 2 inch trailer hitch receivers, # Y02443. Also, on the 2 inch version you have the option to add an additional 2-bike extension, # Y02446. You cannot add the extension to the 1-1/4 inch version. Other than that they are exactly the same. I have included video review links for both versions for you. If you do not know the size hitch receiver you have, measure the width...

With your concerns of damage to your bikes painted surface this is good option since it secures the bikes without frame contact.

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver and Platform-Style Bike Rack for 2012 VW Golf
    When one of the available hitches for your 2012 VW Golf is installed, the receiver will be located so that it's hitch pin hole sits about 6 to 7 inches forward of the furthest rearward part of the bumper. Because it's recessed under the bumper pretty far, unfortunately the shank of the Thule TH44VR Helium wouldn't be able slide into the receiver tube far enough for the hitch pin hole in the shank to line up with the hole in the receiver. I do have a combination that would work for you....

  • Can the Thule Apex XT Bike Rack Carry a 50 lb E-Bike
    While the Thule Apex XT 5 Bike Rack # TH9026XT does have a weight capacity of 150 lbs, this is for when it is fully loaded to 4 or 5 bikes (30 lbs - 35 lbs per bike). The individual cradles won't be able to handle a 50 lb bike so we'll need to find an alternative to transport your E-Bike. An alternative option from Yakima is the HoldUp 2 Bike Rack # Y02443 which can carry up to 2 bikes weighing 60 lbs each. If you need to carry more bikes the you can then use the Plus 2 2-Bike Add-On #...

    For your Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" Hitches - Platform Style - Tilting # Y02445, the Replacement 2" Hitch Adapter for Yakima Carriers # Y8890174 will not work according to my contact at Yakima and it is no longer available.

  • Recommended Platform Bike Rack Compatible With EcoHitch Invisi-Hitch on 2013 Subaru Impreza
    I'll start by saying that because the EcoHitch # 306-X7211 is a completely hidden receiver on your 2013 Subaru Impreza Sport, you're going to need to use a bike rack that has a bit longer shank and will get it out away from the vehicle in order to have full functionality. The length of the shank in front of (towards the exhaust) is still important, but the distance available behind the hitch pin hole is going to be more important in determining the functionality of the rack. Because of...

  • Does Saris Freedom Bike Rack Have 2-Bike Add-On Extension?
    The Saris Freedom Bike Rack comes as a 2-Bike rack # SA4412B or a 4-Bike Rack # SA4414B. Saris designed it as one or the other and not as add-on extensions. If you want a 2+2 style bike rack, we do have some other options. The Yakima HoldUp # Y02443 is a similar style bike rack and can be extended to carry 4 bikes with the # Y02446 Add-On. This will allow you to carry bikes weighing up to 60lbs each, but you will be limited to 200lbs overall bike weight. I included videos of the Yakima...

  • Will Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Carrier # S64665 Allow Rear Hatch Access on a 2013 Toyota 4 Runner
    The Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Carrier for 2-inch hitches, part # S64665, does have tilting upright masts to allow hatch access when not loaded with bikes but the main horizontal structure can drop only to a level position (as with bikes loaded and going down the road). It does not tilt down below the level position. With your four bikes loaded you will not be able to open your rear hatch. A better option for rear hatch access is the Yakima HoldUp 2-bike carrier # Y02443 partnered with the matching...

  • Comparing the Thule T2 and Yakima HoldUp Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Racks for a 2011 Mazda CX-9
    Bike racks are not vehicle specific there are just some that vehicle owners purchase more often for certain vehicles than others. Since you have a 2 inch trailer hitch on your 2011 Mazda CX-9, you can use the Yakima HoldUp, # Y02443. The Thule T2, # TH83GC will also fit. I have linked video reviews of both racks for you. The Holdup has a capacity of 60 pounds per bike and the T2 has a 50 pound per bike capacity. The HoldUp will accept 14 to 29 inch bike wheels. The T2 will accept 20 to...

  • Maximum Tongue Weight Capacity of 2019 Honda Odyssey With Trailer Hitch for Bike Rack
    The tongue weight capacity - or the most a bike rack and loaded bikes can carry - is going to depend on the specific trailer hitch. For your 2019 Honda Odyssey the best hitch to use for a bike rack is the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch Receiver # E98855 which has a tongue weight capacity of 525 lbs. The etrailer hitch # E98855 is the best option to use a bike rack because it offers the best bumper clearance with a distance of just three inches from the hitch pin hole to the bumper, as you...

  • Comparing the Yakima HoldUp 2 and the Kuat Sherpa 2.0
    Between the Yakima HoldUp 2, part # Y02443 and the Sherpa 2.0, part # SH22G, I personally like both, however, they are built around different bikes and uses. The Yakima HoldUp is a better rack if you have kids bikes, heavier bikes, or could possibly need a 4 bike carrier in the future. The rack is expandable to carry a total of 4 bikes with part # Y02446, or the two out of the base model. The HoldUp is also able to carry bikes with 14 to 29 inch wheels, covering a wide grouping of family...

  • Yakima HoldUp Plus Two Extension Part # Y02446
    The Yakima HoldUp Plus 2 is intended to be used with the Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike rack, part # Y02443. It slides into the end of the bike rack, and is held in place by a retaining pin. The wheels of the bike rest in the wheel hoops, and the padded ratcheting hook secures the bike from the top of the wheel. I will provide a link to the instructions for the HoldUp. You can find the links below. I have also linked you to some product demonstration videos you might find helpful.
