WHAT DOES THIS RACK HAVE IN COMMON WITH MEMBERS OF A CHEERLEADING SQUAD? IT�S, LIKE, SO TOTALLY POPULAR! IN FACT, IT�S THE MOST POPULAR BIKE MOUNT ON THE MARKET. HERE�S WHY.

Fits Yakima round bars only. Tool-free installation. Unless you�re a tool, in which case one tool is required. Not that we think you�re a tool. In fact, we�re willing to bet you aren�t.

I had Steelheads many years ago and when I needed a rack for my new car I decided to get another set. I leave the rack on my car for extended periods and need the extra security that this mount offers. Unfortunately, I discovered that Yakima does not sell replacement parts for the clamping head. Over time, exposure to the sun has caused the red plastic levers to crumble to pieces, and Yakima Customer Service told me that I would have to buy an entire replacement head which is about half the cost of a new mount. How eco-friendly is that? Luckily, it can be fixed with a stainless worm screw hose clamp threaded through the slot and around the head to keep the halves together. It doesn't look as nice but it's probably stronger than the original design. It would get 5 stars if Yakima provided service parts for the heads.

Got this rack for my girlfriends Trek 7300. The right fork bottoms out on the Steelhead before it reaches the top of the fork cut out. The fork cut out (or whatever it's called where the front wheel mounts to the fork)is 1 inch deep on the Trek 7300. Now here's the kicker. I still used it and it worked OK. We tried the Copperhead and that wouldn't work at all on her bike. If I had a 2008 or newer Trek, I wouldn't bother with any Yakima rack lower end than the Viper. Since I've had the Viper, Steelhead, and Copperhead, I know that the Viper is the only one of the three that works for her 2008 Trek 7300.
