This review is from: Yakima DoubleDown 5 Bike Rack (Sports)
The previous reviews helped a lot. The rack was advertised as being capable of carrying 5 bikes but since I knew I had my wifes bike and kids bikes I really only expected to get 4 bikes on it. Overall, it fits my bikes really well (road bike and adult mountain bike) and with some creativity most other bikes fit. I also agree with other reviewers that you should really plan on adding some additional rags and/or tie downs if you don't want your bikes scratched. I found myself securing the bikes to each other at a few places to ensure they would not rub/bang against each other while traveling. This worked great. I did not receive enough of the Yakima tie downs for 5 bikes which is likely gonna bother me at some point... but for now I am only putting on 3-4 bikes anyway.
