Subject:LVC - Yakima Full Swing Bike rack write up

Hey Folks

I picked up a Yakima Full swing bike rack just before my trip out west.   I put pics of the rack and its operation on the van blog

Overall - I think the rack is Excellent.  The swing away feature is invaluable.  Even when i am sure I am finished in the hatch area - I find myself back in there 3-4 times after loading up the bikes.  A very solid rack that holds up to four bikes securely.  A built in lock feature will lock down the 4th bike for theft prevention. [ Not helpful if you are carrying only one bike..]

The rack worked perfectly with the Dennis Haynes Hitch.  [ 2" receiver ]

Prices online range around $380 - $450  but after shipping - i found it at my local bike shop cheaper...
