Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

While some customers consider it a great value, others find it not worth the cost. The rack receives mixed feedback regarding ease of assembly, with customers finding the straps hard to fasten, and several customers report issues with wobble and instability.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2023Inferred Variation Dimension 1: 4 HitchVerified PurchaseThe YAKIMA DoubleDown 4 Tilting Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack is nothing short of awesome! As a proud owner of this fantastic bike rack, I can't help but sing its praises.
First and foremost, the ease of use is truly remarkable. From the moment I received it, I was impressed with how straightforward it was to set up and install on my vehicle's hitch. The included instructions were clear, and the whole process took just a few minutes. No complicated tools or extensive assembly required!
Loading and securing my bikes onto the rack is a breeze. The individual cradles and secure straps ensure that my bikes stay in place, preventing any wobbling or potential damage during transportation. I have peace of mind knowing that my precious bikes are safe and sound.
The tilting feature is a game-changer. It allows me to access the rear of my vehicle without removing the bikes or the rack itself. This convenience has saved me time and effort, especially during road trips when I need to access the trunk frequently.
The build quality of the YAKIMA DoubleDown 4 is top-notch. It feels sturdy and well-constructed, and I have no doubt that it will last for years to come. The finish also holds up well to the elements, maintaining its sleek appearance.
Speaking of capacity, accommodating four bikes is a real bonus. Whether I'm riding solo or with friends and family, this rack has space for everyone's bikes, making it a fantastic choice for group adventures.
In conclusion, the YAKIMA DoubleDown 4 Tilting Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack is a fantastic addition to any cyclist's gear. It's easy to use, sturdy, and offers excellent bike transportation capacity. The tilting feature adds extra convenience, and the build quality is outstanding. This bike rack is an absolute winner and deserves a solid 5-star rating without a doubt!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2024Inferred Variation Dimension 1: 4 HitchVerified PurchaseIt’s been discontinued. I will get to why this is an issue in a sec.
First ever trailer hitch, bike rack, and first time installing and I did all myself with the exception of tightening the big important bolt. it is very easy to figure out even if you lack basic mechanical skills like myself. It held two E Bikes through curvy mountain roads, stop and go freeway traffic up to 85 miles per hour and did it without wobbling or scaring the bejesus out of us while driving. The BIG exception is the big important bolt that holds everything in place is threaded and you need a 19 mm socket and small handled socket wrench to tighten it properly and even with The appropriate tool if you don’t have the hand strength to turn that thing super tight in a very awkward position you’re SOL and you have to get help from somebody else. I’m not a weakling and I could not for the life of me get in that awkward place with a big socket wrench, which doesn’t come with it by the way. Most trailer pins are just that pins they aren’t threaded and because it requires a threaded pin getting a pin that locks is near impossible. THIS IS WHY it being discontinued is a problem, the part for this unit is a Yakima DeadLock and there is ONE place you can order and it takes weeks to arrive. You cannot purchase a universal locking pin the nigh before you are leaving! The good news is you don’t really need a locking pin because it is SO awkward and impossible to unscrew the pin without laying under the car with the specific socket wrench thing and working up a substantial sweat to get it undone so it’s unlikely it will get ripped off. Nothing to lock your bikes to the rack while traveling though. For all of that it’s still an absolute bargain for a very decent bike rack.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2025Inferred Variation Dimension 1: 4 HitchVerified PurchaseI’m so glad I returned my original bike rack purchase and went with the Yakima Hitch Mount Tilting 4-Bike Rack. From the moment I took it out of the box, I could tell it was built to last. It’s super easy to use right away—no complicated assembly or setup. Once installed, it doesn’t shimmy or shake at all, even on longer trips. I always make sure to tighten the secure bolt with a socket for that extra peace of mind, but honestly, this thing doesn’t budge. It’s way lighter and easier to handle than the first rack I bought, and I love how simple it is to tilt and access the trunk when needed. Definitely a game-changer for transporting bikes!
