If your car doesn’t have roof racks, doesn’t have a tow ball and doesn’t have enough inside space to stash your bike, Yakima’s new FullBack rack could be your answer. Its unique design means that it fits cars of all makes and models, from a Maserati through to a Mini. The FullBack carries up to 3 bikes and it’s absolutely loaded with nifty features that ensure your bikes are transported secure and safely, and also ensure that your vehicles doesn’t get marked or damaged in anyway.

And being a kickass Yakima product of course also means that the rack features a built in bottle opener!
