Comparing the Yakima HalfBack 3 Bike Trunk Mounted Rack to the FullBack 3 Bike Rack  

Question:

Hello, I am looking at the Yakima 3 bike rack. Will it work for a 2017 Ford Escape.

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633 is not a fit for your 2017 Ford Escape. Instead, you could use the Yakima HangOut 3-Bike, Trunk Mounted with Adjustable Arms # Y02638. This 3-bike trunk rack features a QuickTrigger hub system for easy setup on your Ford Escape. The adjustable arms help to keep bikes level. StableCradle anti-sway cradles with removable ChainStraps allow for easy bike loading. Folds flat for storage.

I also recommend the Softride Soft Hook-and-Loop Tie Downs # SR54FR to secure the front tire to the frame and bike adapter bar # 64005 for any women's, children's, and alternative frame bikes. This will create a frame rail between the seat post and handlebars for level transport and proper ground clearance.
