Yakima FullTilt Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Zip Strips are Not Long Enough To Secure Bike
Question:
do you guys make a longer zip strip? The zip strip supplied is not long enough to secure the rear part of the fork on my road bike. If not, what do people use to secure this part of the bike and keep it from swaying?

Expert Reply:
Yakima currently only makes the one size Zip Strip for the bike racks that use them. If they are not long enough you may be able to use the 12 inch long hook and loop strap # SR54FR. Or you could use set # 63135. These are 17 inches long. This is going to be the best option for this situation.
