Best Bike Rack for Day 6 Bikes with Long Wheelbase
Question:
My wife has a Day 6 bike strong pedal forward with distance between wheel point of contact to be about 59 to 60 inches versus my other bikes of 44 to 46. Do the trays extend that far on the Yakima 4 timer tray bike rack? This will be used on rare occasions on a Honda Odyssey. I bought my RV bike rack Yakima Long Haul from you last summer, and am pleased with your service and support. Thanks.

The wheel trays on the Yakima FourTimer 4 Bike Platform Rack part Y02469-FB can be moved. However, they can only accommodate a bike with a max wheelbase of 48". Therefore, I instead recommend you take a look at my personal favorite bike rack, the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 4 Bike Platform Rack part # HR1400Z. The Sport Rider can accommodate bikes with a max wheelbase of up to 60" so it will work just fine with your wife's Day 6 Bike. When compared to the FourTimer; the Sport Rider is more cost effective, has a higher weight capacity, offers more ground clearance, and can be used on a motorhome.
