Hanging Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2015 Subaru Outback Wagon
Question:
Would you kindly confirm that the RidgeBack will work well with OEM hitch on 2015 Subaru Outback? Thx

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Yakima RidgeBack part # Y02457 would fit and work well in the hitch of your 2015 Subaru Outback whether it is a 2 inch or 1-1/4 inch hitch.
Check out the review video I attached for this rack as well.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
