I have a different bike rack recommendation for you, but Yakima has discontinued line of Yakima DoubleDown Ace bike racks.

For a similar two bike rack offered by Yakima, I recommend the Yakima RidgeBack 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting # Y02457 which can accommodate two bikes weighing up to 40lbs each. This rack has quite a few great features such as being able to tilt to allow you to access the rear cargo area of your vehicle, the speed knob with the included lock that allows you to secure the rack to your vehicle, and anti-sway cradles which use included ratcheting zipstrip straps to secure the bikes frame in 3 points to keep them from moving around while driving down the road.

Adding the Yakima HandCuff Cable Lock # Y02466 allows you to secure your bikes to the rack for additional security.

I included videos to both of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
