Yakima Quickback Rack

[RADaines]

Does anyone have any experience with Yakima's Quickback or KingJoe bike racks? I am looking for a trunk-mount rack for 2 bikes that will work on both 2008 Honda Civic 2 dr and 4 dr models. I can get a single bike inside my Civic 2 dr, but not two. TIA.

They are very good racks, but be careful-- a lot of the Quickback "fits" require placing the lower suuport on the license plate which is a no-no in most states. Not sure about your Hondas. Good luck

Thanks for your comment. Believe it or not, their are very few options for a trunk mount rack for the Civic. Thule won't touch them, they want you to buy a roof rack set. This is a problem as we have sun roofs and also because of the cost. Yakima appear the only reasonable option.

Yakima was listing both the Quickback and the "King Joe" series for both of your Hondas so you should have no probelm getting a fit. Just watch out for the license plate issue.
