One thing to make a note of is that a hitch bike back is required for this set-up, but is sold separately.  The Yakima FullSwing works very well and is highly recommended to support this set-up.  It’s important to be aware of the fact that the Yakima Hitchski is not compatible with: 2 bike hitch racks, Ridgeback 2, Ridgeback 5, DoubleDown 2, DoubleDown Ace 2, HighLite 2 or 3, SpareJoe, SpareTime, or SpareRide Spare Tire Racks. This is a fantastic cost effective option for those who already have a compatible bike hitch carrier laying around. The Yakima HitchSki removes the need of a full vehicle rack system and cargo box or ski attachment, potentially saving you a bunch of money!
