Have used the block head bike mounts by Yakima on trips of 800 to 1500 miles with no incident. Easy to mount the bikes and they have not released even on bumpy roads. Great product for my truck box and bikes are always in view.
Easiest way I have found to transport our bikes

The Yakima racks are still performing great. I did stiffen up the truck box with a 3/4 aluminum angle on the interior to prevent metal fatigue of the box lid flexing a little. Preventive precaution: The bikes ride with security, safely, and with a quick glance in the rear view, I have complete viewing for my RV. 3000+ miles so far on bikes and racks.

With a little adaption the Yakima brackets mounted to my built in bed rails on my 2010 Nissan Frontier. With my truck cap this makes my bikes safe and secure, out of sight out of mind.

Do you have a short bed? I am looking for a mounting solution that will fit a kennel and two bikes, one on either side.Thanks,Peter



by:

I ordered five (5) Yakima Blockhead Mounts for my trailer to carry bikes to include a tandem these worked great. etrailer fullfilled the order and shipped them quikly. I recommend etrailer to everyone :)



by:
1996 Toyota Tacoma

Works great! It would be nice is it came with the mounting hardware, however. eTrailer.com shipped the product immediately.



by:

I got my part it is in great shape and is exactly what I wanted. The delivery was quick and even though the money was held in my account, it was not officially transferred until the part was delivered.



by:

This is a very versatile product, for any cycling enthusiast. I've used these for several applications that require imaginations to get the bikes from place to place.

They work great and easy to apply for those DIY.

Thanks



by:

This is a good, solid product. The customer service from etrailer was outstanding. Shipping was faster than I expected!



by:

Mounted on a jet ski trailer. Product works great! Allows me to haul bikes and jet ski at same time.



by:

Great service and product! No problems what so ever! Could not find this product locally instock and when a store locally could order it, it would take three weeks to get it. With etrailer, I got it in three days.

Thanks,



by:

Great serviceEtrailer provided excellent communication and prompt delivery. The product was exactly what I expected



by:

Fantastic item and fast shipping. Well handled by etrailer.com!!!



by:

Fast shipping, no hassles. The item was just what I needed. I will do business again with etrailer.com.

Ford F-150

SOLID construction ... this thing is a beautiful little block of metal with a robust skewer and clamp. I’ll be using mine mounted to a 2x6 running across the front of my F150 bed floor. Very nicely made. 1” lag bolts fit well under the curved shape.



by:

Works wonderfully. Very solid. Product has high quality of machining.



by:
2009 Nissan Murano

Fit perfect for my Cannondale SL2



by:
2005 Chevrolet Silverado

Very good quality. Just what I needed at a reasonable price.



by:
Toyota Tundra

works perfect... and got shipping was fast



by:

Delivered quickly and secure. Strong, solid product. Thank you!



by:

Easy to install...fast shipping and great service



by:

Worked as claimed. Have a 2 5/16" rolled hitch lip, so I had to remove the insert filler. Fits good. Trailer is stored in a open storage lot. Cheap deterrence. Delivered on time.



by:

The deadbolt lock provides higher level of security than the original hitch lock. I wanted to protect the bottom of the hitch and prevent someone from grabbing the trailer by using a ball type receiver or a 'C' type receiver on their vehicle. New lock installs in less than a minute.



by:

This lock was received exactly as described, is made of extremely high-quality components. I was also very pleased that this item could be keyed alike with other DeadBolt locking products such as the hitch receiver lock. I strongly recommend this item without reservation.



by:

Purchased to secure my vintage Avion travel trailer. I have invested some money and labor in it and don’t want it to disappear! The lock fits the original coupler with a little side to side play. I purchased another lock that did not fit and was pleased that this one did, as discribed. Quality appears very good.



by:

So I had been looking for a keyed a-like lock set for my trailer and hitch/receiver for a few months. Well finally after not finding what I wanted and getting to the point of exhausting my internet search I called etrailer. I spoke with Ashley E. and she got to work on finding me EXACTLY what I needed!!! I purchased the DeadBolt™ trailer coupler (not in-use) lock, trailer coupler (in-use) lock, and hitch lock all keyed the same. They all worked great, looked great (quality), and best of all they were made in the U.S.A.!!!!!!!!!



by:

This small bit of hardware is easy to use and gives me a little more security than not using a hitch lock.
Any pro who really wants to take your trailer can do so, but if there are a number of trailers together, this might be enough to make them decide to go try another one instead.

  • Availability of a 4 Bike Truck Bed Mount Bike Rack that Will Fit a 2010 Nissan Frontier
    We have numerous truck bed mount bike racks, and I am sure that one of them will be the right fit for your 2010 Nissan Frontier. First, if your truck DOES NOT have the tie down track system in the bed, you will be able to use the Truck Bed 4 Bike Carrier - Topline, # UG2500-4. If your truck does have the tie down system, then you may be interested in The Claw Fork Mount Bike Carrier, # S64700. You would need 4 of them for 4 bikes and it will require removing the front bike wheels, but...

  • Will a Bike with Disc Brakes Fit the Yakima BlockHead Y01117
    The Yakima BlockHead # Y01117 works with some bikes with disc brakes but not all. Since I can't guarantee that it will work with your specific disc brake bike I recommend looking at some other options. The similar Hollywood racks carrier, # HRT970, shows that it is compatible with both disc brake bikes and non-disc brake bikes so it is one option. I have linked a video review for you.

  • Will Yakima BlockHead Truck Bed Mounted Bike Rack, Part # Y01117, Work with Ladies Beach Cruiser
    The Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack, Part # Y01117, is intended as a universal carrier that can fit the majority of bicycle sizes and types when mounted in a truck bed. The horizontal skewer rod is 9 millimeters thick; as long as the bike axles are not thicker than this the fork prongs will fit. The typical trunk-mount type bike racks that mount to the rear of a passenger vehicle often do have compatibility issues with the curved frame tubes on beach cruisers. However,...

  • Bike Carrier That Can be Added to Cargo Platform
    Lippert does not offer a bike carrier add-on for their Tailgate Storage System LC404069 but other companies do have such items. For instance, Stromberg Carlson offers their cargo carrier Bike Rack Adapter kit # CC-125 which handles two bikes. This kit simply bolts to the bottom metal mesh decking of a cargo system like the Lippert. Hardware for installation and tie-down straps to secure the bikes are included. Please check out the linked video to see more on this item. This rack does...

  • Fork Mounted Bike Rack Mount Recommendations for the Bed of a 2003 Nissan Frontier Crew Cab
    To install the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack, part # Y01117, you will need to use the included template and drill two holes in the bed of your truck near the back and then run the bolts through those hole and use the included fender washers and nuts to attach this from the underside of your bed. To access the underside of your bed you will most likely need to crawl underneath the rear of your truck. Having a buddy help you out at this point would be nice. One guy...

  • Will the Yakima Locking BedHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack Attach to a 2020 Honda Ridgeline?
    I confirmed with Yakima that the Locking BedHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack Y01133 will fit on your 2020 Honda Ridgeline RTL-E as long as the height of the rails are less than three inches thick. You can attach an additional Yakima Locking BedHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack Y01133 to attach another mountain bike. The bikes will sit securely in the rack with a skewer that tightens on the bike's fork. Also, the installation is very efficient because it does not require any...

  • What is the Weight Limit for Yakima Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Bike Rack
    I have a solution for you, however, my technical contact at Yakima stated the heaviest bike they would recommend mounting on the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Rack Mount # Y01117 would be 35lbs. He said he would definitely not mount a tandem bike due to not only the weight of the bike but also the amount of sway which is a result of the highway speeds combined with the weight of the bike. My technical contact at Thule suggested the Insta-Gater Pro # TH93VR. The provisions on this is that...

  • Hardware Size to Install the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack
    The hardware for the Yakima BlockHead bike rack, # Y01117, is not included. Basically you can use any hardware that will fit and that is appropriate for the surface you wish to mount the rack on. I recommend a fastener that requires an uncommon tool to help deter theft. The instructions mention using 1/4 inch (6mm) bolts or screws, washers, and locking nuts. I have included a link to the installation instructions for you.

  • Do You Have a Folding Bike Rack That Will Work on a Horse Trailer Rib?
    I have a solution for you. Unfortunately, with the oblong shape of the internal rib of your horse trailer, we do not carry anything that will allow bikes to be securely fastened and fold down. For your situation, I recommend the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack - Bolt-on # Y01117. The BlockHead is great because of the versatility of the drill-on installation. Once installed, you can mount your bike vertically with the fork attached at the top and the wheel end on the...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation that is Compatible with a 4 x 8 Snow Bear Trailer
    We have not tested the Topline 2 Bike Carrier Truck Bed Mounted Expandable Bike Rack, # UG2500, on a Snow Bear trailer, so I cannot say whether or not it will work for that application. But if the trailer has side rails like those on a truck bed that the clamps of the rack can secure to, then it would most likely work. I have included a link to a video review for reference. You could also use something like the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack, # Y01117. This would...

  • Options for Carrying 4 Bikes In a 2010 Toyota Tacoma Truck Bed with Rail Track Tie Down System
    We do have some truck bed mounted bike racks that will work with your 2010 Toyota Tacoma with rail track system, but the Topline system will not fit because direct access to the bed rails is needed to secure the clamps. For in bed 4 bike transport you could use four of the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Racks, item # Y01117. Another option for your truck would be a hitch mounted bike rack like the Thule Camber, item # TH9056. If you need a hitch for your truck we have...

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack Recommendation for a 1999 Chevrolet S10 Extended Cab Pickup
    As long as the front wheel on your bike is connected to the front fork with a 9-mm quick mount skewer, you can bolt the Yakima BlockHead bike carrier, # Y01117, to any part of the truck bed that is sufficient to carry the bike, normally the truck bed rails. This carrier requires drilling and bolting the head to your truck bed. I would recommend the Thule Bed-Rider 2, # TH822XTR, fork mount rack, that can be easily installed and removed, and uses the same style of fork mount attachment....

  • Recommendations for Carrying 5 or 6 Bikes on a 5 ft by 8 ft Trailer
    To carry five or six bikes in your trailer, I would recommend picking up five or six Yakima BlockHead truck bed bike mounts, # Y01117. These bike mounts can mount to the side rails or floor if you have an open utility trailer or they can mount to the walls or floor if you have an enclosed trailer. The fork mount design allows you to mount multiple style and sizes of bikes on the same mount. You could also take a different route and install a cargo control system like the E-Track, # E19148,...

  • Will the Swagman Truck Bed Bike Rack Fit a 2008 Ford Sport Trac?
    I spoke with my contact at Swagman and he said the Truck Bed Mount Bike Rack part # S64702 is adjustable down to 50-1/4 inches. So if your 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac has a bed that measures 50 inches wide it is going to be a very tight fit. Another option would be the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack # Y01117. This rack is intended as a universal carrier that can fit the majority of bicycle sizes and types when mounted in a truck bed.
