hi everyone, new yeti owner here,

my yeti has the spare tyre and lid fitted, can i still fit the internal bike rack?

has anyone here got one? thanks

 

I have the internal bike rack and find it a bit fiddly to be honest...it was so tricky I had to go back to the dealer to sort it out....it can be difficult to screw in the locking pins.....I don't have spare tyre fitted

I've been considering one as well, so I'll be interested in other people's thoughts and experiences with this.

sniperkona - sorry but think you will find bike rack is not compatible with spare wheel option.

 

KBPhoto - I have one and would not be without it, however andyml's point about the locking pins is very valid, they are a bit of a pain, though marking them and a bit of practice makes it easier.  Also the supplied clamps for the seatpost etc are too small for any of my road bikes so I just use bungees.  Bottom line is if like me you are thinking of generally leaving it installed, happy to discard the supplied straps and use bungees, generally only carry one bike, then its a good piece of kit.  Oh and it helps if you can find a barely used one on fleabay for half price. 

thanks s1 exiger, could you do me a favour and take a pic of the rack , no bike fitted , just inside the boot lid, the main bracket, so i can see exactly how it goes in?

I had one but sold it a long time ago. I never used it. Prefer to carry muddy bicycles behind the car.

^ +1.  Not muddy bikes necessarily.  Madam will tolerate a surprisingly solid 'winter coat', as some here describe it, on the outside, but she has to be persuaded to accept even a pair of muddy boots into the car.
