[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Yakima RidgeBack Tilt Away Hitch Bike Rack was lightweight and compact. The bike rack came fully assembled with easy mounting instructions. I found the zip strips convenient and very easy to lock bikes on rack. Having the tilt feature, made it easy to access the hatchback of my expedition and my tailgate of my pick up truck. I did however, have an issue with a 2 1/2 inch receiver. I was not able to get the locking pin all the way through to the other side(it was secured, just not all the way through) also the only other negative I could find was YAKIMA sticker was already falling off and probably would not last. All in all the bike rack worked and did it purpose by carrying my bikes I would recommend this product if you're looking for a lightweight easy to use bike rack, 
It’s ok

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this for my vehicle to haul my kids bikes around when they want to go on a bike ride I just wish it was a lot bigger and more stability and durable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was able to install them on my wife’s car onto her hitch with no problems. I was unsure if I would be able to do it as I’ve never attached anything to the hitch. Once attached it seems very secure which was rather surprising to me. She has no problem opening up her trunk with the bike rack since it can fold out of the way. We go camping and bring the kids bikes usually in the back of my pick up truck but my wife can now enjoy her car and not give up any space in her vehicle if she needs to bring bikes. This is a quality product and so far I am very happy with it. Went up north this weekend and drove over 400 miles (back and forth) on the highway with no issues whatsoever. Great product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Writing this review after first installing so I will come back and update the review if necessary. I have to say, this thing is rock solid and study. The bike rack is heavy enough that you know it is made with strong materials while still being light enough for easy installation. The bike rack came fully assembled and took about 2 minutes to install and that was because I did not realize that the lock mechanism came locked already and needed to be unlocked prior to install. The folding feature is amazing and will allow quick access to the trunk without taking the rack off. The arms that hold the bikes fold down when not in use. I can see myself keeping the bike rack on all the time. I will definitely be ordering more Yakima products including their roof top basket as they appear to make high quality products.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recommend it. It is durable, easy to install. The weight is medium and it unifies the space. It can withstand heavy weight and does not scratch the car. The price is reasonable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bicycle rides are my families most favorite past time! But we are a large family with 2 adults, 3 young adults, and 2 tiny tots - getting that many bicycles loaded up has always been a challenge until now. YAKIMA RIDGEBACK TILT-AWAY HITCH BIKE RACK HOLDS 5 BIKES FOR CARS, SUVS & TRUCKS saved us completely! This design is made to gracefully tilt out of the way when not in use ensuring you have access to your trunk space. Anti-sway cradles on board will help prevent the bikes that are mounted from clashing into one another. Simply attach to any 1.25 inch or 2 inch hitch receiver and enjoy the endless possibilities and adventures with your family and bicycles!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very cool and sturdy item! It’s been a bit too cold for bike riding so we haven’t gotten to install it yet but it appears to be large enough and of good quality. We also really love the locking feature that gives added security. Can’t wait to use it all summer!
It’s great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This particular bike rack has a large capacity, it’s extremely easy to install as it already comes pre installed. It feels extremely durable and holds in the bikes very securely. I will be getting the rod that goes on my bike to sit straight on the rack instead of being slanted I wish it came with it instead. It has a belt that ties from the tire to the rod of the bike so the steering wheel doesn’t move while sitting on the car while driving. This particular rack o my fits big bikes and not small children bikes. Overall I’m extremely happy with this bike rack. Disclaimer: I got this bike rack to try out for myself and give out my honest opinion.
Sturdy!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This bike rack is pretty heavy so I definitely needed my husbands assistance in putting this on. I love that it can tilt back so I can access my trunk without having to remove the entire thing. It holds 5 bikes so we can travel with friends in one vehicle which is great. The only thing I didn’t realize was that for the type of bikes we have, we did need to purchase the tube top for this rack to work for us(seen in the bike photo). My only complaint is that the decals are already peeling off as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item from Influenster and Yakima "free" in exchange for my honest review. This 5 bike rack is really awesome! It's easy to install and heavy-duty built with 150 lbs. capacity. I can easily put bikes on and secure them in place with the zipstrip straps it can with. Has anti-sway cradles to prevent bikes from touching one another. Love that the rack tilts down for easy access to the car's hatch. Comes with a limited lifetime warranty. Highly recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this bike rack holds five bikes, as it is a hassle to go biking anywhere, not local, for a full family. Now we are able to explore more than we were once able to. 
Easy install great for all bikes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I actually had the 2 prong model and worked great for me and my family but I needed 1 more extra space and then this was offered as a claim item and now I'm super happy with this! It's good, study, let's me still have access to the back of my car. I will say, thin frames might get a little scratched I had 3 bikes on it and it was fine even off road. I think overall it's a great option for people who travel with their bikes and need something secure with an ease of mind. The installation isn't that bad if you already have a hitch but we didn't so hubby had to install that so it took longer than usual. I love it and I'm so excited to use it often!
This is exactly what I needed!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, it’s awesome! 👏🏽 I can confidently and easily fit all bikes without the worry of them not locking right or yet alone worrying about this accidentally scratching my truck. It’s far apart from anything or potentially hitting the paint. I love how it’s so sturdy. I am so happy & can’t wait to use it a lot this summer for our family camping trips.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is heavy which gave me confidence that it could hold 4 bikes (2 x adults and 2 x child). It was easy to load onto my car and felt really sturdy. I was able to drive without any issues or concerns. I would definitely recommend this bike rack.
Great for Full-size Mens Bikes Only

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start, this thing has some weight to it! It’s not cheaply made at all. The pin that holds this into the hitch, however, is tiny. The entire rack is held into the hitch using opposing pressure, kinda like how drum brakes work. It’s not very confidence inspiring. The rack will only hold full sized men’s style bikes. Kids bikes and bikes with the top bar angled down will not fit. This is a huge disappointment. The tilt away feature is incredible and easy to use. The built in bottle opener seems like throwing in one last item to pump up the feature list. I wish they would have made the rack able to hold variations of bikes instead.
Great find!

User friendly tilting bike rack for a big crew

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Yakima RidgeBack Tilt-Away is a sturdy and convenient bike rack designed to make transporting bikes easy and user friendly. This rack can carry up to five bikes of many sizes and styles, making it ideal for family outings or adventures with friends. It features an amazing tilt-away design, which allows easy access to the rear of your vehicle even when the bikes are loaded. This comes in handy when you need to access your trunk or rear hatch without having to unload the bikes! I’m so excited for spring to be able to really put this to the test. We don’t have the hitch on our family vehicle yet but the installation process is straightforward, and the rack securely holds your bikes in place during transport. There are accessories available to accommodate specific kinds of bikes that harder to hook onto most bike carriers.
