The Yakima RampUp is a very cool addition to your Yakima StageTwo. This is gonna help you get the heavier bikes or just your normal bikes up and loaded onto the carrier. After a long ride, you're usually pretty gassed, but also if you just have a heavy e-bike since the StageTwo can handle the heavy e-bikes, this is gonna be a great way to do it. The ramp is just gonna make it a lot easier to make the whole entire experience a little bit better. I like what we did down here. There's not a big jump from the ground to here.
It's a very gradual slope. And the width of it is about four inches, but what I do like about this ramp compared to some of the others is it's not like a bowl. It does have these hard edges because a lot of the times your tire tries to kind of walk off to the side. So having these ray sides, which are about an inch tall, really helps keep that tire inside the ramp. The ramp is pretty long.
When it's completely extended, the length of it's gonna be 65 and a quarter inches, but we can take it out of this little groove spot. And if you flip it over, we have these knobs here. What we have to do is take the knobs off both sides. And these are metal knobs, which I like, so they're not gonna strip out or anything. And then, it'll condense down to right here, which the measurement of this right here at the smallest point it's gonna be 38 and three quarters of an inch.
We can take the knobs, screw 'em back on, and then we can store this in the back. So if you have a trunk, it's gonna fit in that. If you have a back hatch, it's definitely gonna fit in there. And it can even fit underneath some of your seats. There are some bike racks that have a ramp that stays on the bike rack, but those aren't near as long as this one.
I think having a longer rack for a taller vehicle is almost essential just because this is around the same size as the Thule EasyFold ramp, which is kind of not really usable. You're gonna have to still use a decent amount of force to get it up there, so it being a very long ramp is very, very nice. The length is also gonna come in handy just because we have a stadium style bike rack, meaning every single cradle's gonna be a little bit taller than the one closer to the vehicle. So if you have the two bike version of the StageTwo, you can use it on both. So just notice where the arm is. It's gonna be on the opposite end of that. But if you do have the four bike version, the length is gonna be really nice to extend out just because it starts getting higher and higher. So for every single bike that you have on this rack, we can use the ramp to help load us. At the end of the day, whatever makes the whole entire activity a little bit easier is something that I kind of look for. This is a nice bike rack, and this is a nice little addition to it, just to get those heavier bikes off and on a little bit easier. And that's pretty much it for our look at the Yakima Ramp for your Yakima StageTwo bike rack..

This ramp for your Yakima StageTwo bike rack makes it easy to load and unload heavy bikes. Simply insert the ramp into the end of a tray and roll your bike onto the rack.An amazing product, sturdy, is easy install, rides great and most of all I feel safe having my bikes attached to the rack!
UPS lost my first order so when I called etrailer back they shipped out a replacement with ni issues.
Need to adapt to the rack I am using it on. Good quality and quick shipping.
I have had Thule, Hollywood, and Saris and the Yakima is the easiest , lightest and holds the bike the best. The connection to the hitch is very firm. The latches that hold the tires and the frame are easy and quick to place on. The ramp makes even a heavy bike easy to get on.
delivery prompt..these are to aid in balancing rv, and have yet to be used, but certainly going with us on next trip as construction, stackability and quality make these an easy choice.
