I have this system and im telling anyone thinking about getting the wheels for the basket GET IT. Using it as a giant wagon is the greatest thing for camping even using it to pack your car with camping gear. At my campsite this past weeked i used this thing to move my dc fridge, heavy ass tent and ez up , placed my 200 watt pecron solar panel on it and easily move it towards the sun. The kids were also pulling and riding the wagon. Also wheeled it to the beach with umbrellas and chairs on it. I swear it is the greatest camping tool i used so far. I do hope yakima makes a rear bigger cargo box that just sits flush ontop of the basket. I looked at the gear locker in person and its a bit small for my families needs so opted to get the skybox nx 16 instead

welcome to the Rack Attack family! The Yakima EXO Back Deck makes a great addition for camping or picnic days. www.rackattack.com/car-tent-accessories/yakima-exo-backdeck/

@@rackattack thats one of my next adds! GREAT product, will definitely be adding the back deck. Currently adding my roof rack adaptors, cargo net and roof locker. Initially a lot of expense, but a whole lot cheaper than buying another SUV, plus so much more diverse! Love Yakima products!

@JASmith-oy8db 2 года назад

How is it working out for you so far? Any major issues?

@ericmills1212 3 года назад

Some nice versatility there, but I agree with others security an issue. They seem to have incorporated locks and tamper resistant screws, but it would be easy to compromise that set-up in multiple ways.

@jtsblocks 2 года назад

Don’t trust any bike lock on any rack. Still needs to be in eye sight. Locks only keep honest people honest.

Great videos! If direct links of each products to Rack Outfitters can be provided and allow viewers to go there with a single click, it would be better.

@korswe 2 года назад

I think the Tesla Owner's Manual lists vertical weight limit on the hitch at 160 lbs. The EXO Swingbase weighs 68.5 lbs, Topshelf weights 33.50 lbs and the Gearlocker weighs 28 lbs. Assuming that bike weighs 25 lbs, there is not much you can transport in that Gearlocker.

@rackattack 2 года назад

Hello. Tesla does not show the tongue weight for the hitch on the product page but with a 3500lb tow rating, it should have a 500lb tongue weight capacity. A brand that makes an aftermarket hitch for the Y, which is likely the same hitch, lists the tongue weight at 525lbs: www.draw-tite.com/product/76430_class-iii-trailer-hitch Thanks!

@rackattack 2 года назад

@@tristanbrotherton Tow weight and tongue weight are the only two commonly used specifications for hitch capacity. Please consult Tesla for clarification on the difference between vertical weight and tongue weight. Thanks!

Brilliant product!

@rackattack 2 года назад

As peoples racking needs have changed a lot in the 15 years I have been attacking racks, it's always to see the cool products being made to suit those needs. This was one of those "No Way!!!" Kinda products when I saw it. Geeked out a little. Thanks for the comment!

@ashleyschauer5309 3 года назад

@senordockman1138 3 года назад

How does the frame mount to the car? Does it utilize the two inch hitch only? Maximum weight?

Holding out for a 2+ bike rack to hit the market soon that can also accommodate the Gearlocker. Fingers crossed 🤞

@keithj239 3 года назад

Same here! I need to transport 3 bikes at a time.

@jonasbrooker5799 3 года назад

Keep in mind to check the vertical load limit of your hitch receiver for your vehicle. The Model Y is only rated for 160 lb. The Yakima exo base component is already 68 lb, then when you add the 2nd level arm it's an additional 30 lb. Leaving only 62 lb of useable storage left.

@jackwu4723 2 года назад

Hi awesome review of the Yakima system. Is the installation process for the Tesla Model Y different from the standard installation instructions from Yakima? If you guys could create an installation video for the MY that would be awesome. Thanks.

@rackattack 2 года назад

We don't do specific requests for viedos, but we do have a staff of team members who could help you out with any questions you have about your install! Call us 888-301-1527

@CaliVapor 2 года назад

@JackWu its a super simple install, once built just slide the 2” hitch into the receiver and tighten a bolt to 70 foot pounds with a torque wrench then put the lock on the end and its done. Is the hitch tongue weight rating 350 lbs or more on the model Y? I have this system on my Subaru Onyx and its rated for 350 which is a full system with Yakimas weight limitations on each platform.

@suefoster2141 3 года назад

Any idea what weight that box can support? In the top position could be helpful in mounting kayak to roof. If not, they should consider a T or extended roller that snaps in for kayak loading

@rackattack 3 года назад

According to Yakima there is a 100lb gear weight limit when mounted on EXO SwingBase or 80lb gear weight limit when mounted on EXO TopShelf. Its a brand new design, so feedback like that is always appreciated!

@gldamao Год назад

Hi, wonderful introduction, thank you for showing that. Although, I wonder if the MegaWarrior will fit as the LoadWarrior?

@rackattack Год назад

Hello. The EXO system uses a unique cleat attachment system which is only offered on EXO carriers and accessories. The EXO Gear Warrior is the only basket compatible with the EXO Base System. Thanks!

@gldamao Год назад

@@rackattack gotcha. Thanks.

@yotagang3705 2 года назад

i want this for my overlanding truck, i would prefer the storage at the rear hitch as opposed to the top cus of the wind resistance and at the rear it wouldnt matter as much . Want the 2 box setup, but man that is expensive. How will this hold up offroad?

@rackattack 2 года назад

Hello. To best answer this here's is the Yakima EXO System Guidelines: assets.yakima.com/product/instructions/8002715/3?_ga=2.182839521.654477578.1639780904-2026527856.1639085365 Thanks!

@joseville 3 года назад

Great design. Here you swung away the entire thing, then swung back just the top platform to get access to the boys, but can the top platform be swung away without swinging away the while thing?

@chrisE815 3 года назад

Not on any car I'm aware of. Maybe a pickup truck?

@rackattack 2 года назад

Hello. The TopShelf pivots/rotates but only the EXO base has the swing-away feature. Thanks!

@elnidofan 3 года назад

Can you take this off roading like how will it hold up to washboard roads ?

@JASmith-oy8db 2 года назад

Good question. I have the Yakima single bike rack mounted to my hitch, and the whole thing gets to rockin’ and rollin’ pretty hard when I go over rough, rocky, rutted, washed out, washboard roads. But it’s still there. But yes I wonder too, especially with a weighted down gear box.

@darrinhorowitz113 3 года назад

Can this system work with my Thule cargo box and Wilco swing hitch?

@rackattack 3 года назад

From what I can read and see the Yakima EXO system is meant to be used with Yakima EXO accessories. Using a Thule box on the EXO modular system could be potentially dangerous. If the box is too long you could clip and hit people on the side of the road or other vehicles when driving. Most Thule boxes are meant to carry Skis and that would be far too long for the width of your vehicle to transport safely. For warranty and Insurance purposes I would only use the Yakima cargo components with the Yakima Exo system. Better safe than sorry.

@HungNguyen-ti5dz 2 года назад

Can the SwingBase swing to the left instead of to the right - a Lexus GX 460 door swings to the right?

@rackattack 2 года назад

The EXO SwingBase can only swing towards the right at this time. This was done so when you are on the side of the road the base would swing out of the way of traffic

@ryancappo Год назад

Aren't there British/Australian/New Zealand/Japanese models?

@Jeschitown Год назад

Do you know The distance measurement between the swing case and the 2nd tier ?

@rackattack Год назад

Hello. The distance from the top of the box to the underside of the second level support is about 9 inches. Thanks!

@fungai5399 3 года назад

can I carry two bikes and some stuff in the box for a Tesla model 3

@rackattack 2 года назад

Your biggest issue with trying to mount that on a model 3 would be the tongue weight. The tongue weight is hoe much weight can hang straight down at the hitch. This car is only rated for 300lbs, this is plenty for caring most bikes, but not for carrying cargo and bikes

@gustavomartinez2628 3 года назад

Anyone know where I can order these? I live in Arizona. none available in store websites say they wont ship these

@rackattack 3 года назад

We can ship some of the components. Are you looking for the whole lot? We are opening a store in Phoenix soon if that helps!

@brianmiller2373 2 года назад

Doesn't the tesla MY hitch have a max vertical weight of 160lbs, so the hitch itself and the box weigh nearly 100lbs, so does that mean I can carry only 60lbs of stuff in the cargo box? And that's not including the bikes or the bike rack....

@rackattack 2 года назад

Hello. The Model Y tow package hitch has 3500 pound tow capacity and 350 tongue weight capacity (vertical weight). Subtract the configured weight of the EXO system and gear from the tongue weight to stay within the hitch capacity. Thanks!

@r_o_b_o_t 2 года назад

After doing a lot of Googling, my understanding is that the max 'Tongue Weight' rating only applies to towing trailers and is not the same as the max 'Vertical Weight' rating which applies to things suspended off the tow hitch like bike racks and cargo boxes. Tesla says the Model Y factory-installed tow hitch has max 'Vertical Weight' of 160 lbs. So by my calculation, the Yakima Exo setup shown at the beginning of the video exceeds that before adding any bikes or cargo: SwingBase: 68.5lbs GearLocker: 27.8lbs TopShelf: 33.5lbs DoubleUp: 37.2lbs Total (without cargo/bikes): 167lbs I personally might just stick with a single-layer Exo setup on my Model Y-- still great to have the flexibility the system provides!

@rackattack 2 года назад

@@r_o_b_o_t Sounds good, thanks for the input!

@dorischow2294 Год назад

can the boxes black the camera?

@rackattack Год назад

Hello. Yes, the box will activate the rear sensors and obstruct the camera view. It is possible to deactivate the rear sensors in the vehicle infotainment settings. Also, accessories cameras are available to provide rear visibility. Thanks.

The EXO system includes a lock for every component. With that in mind for high risk area, the safest option is to not leave the system on the vehicle unattendant for long period of time as thief's can be quite crafty at finding solution to ruin people day

I was very nervous putting my brand new beach cruiser on this rack. ru-vid.comUgkxG6JIgwJhur8_Rg8UeQ3EmePzi_wSncL8 But after reading many reviews I decided to get this one and take a chance. When arrived it was very simple to adjust and put together. I also added spike tape over the metal hooks before securing and tightening the straps, and no scratches. I also purchased the top bar made by the same company so that my cruiser sits straight on the rack without having to turn upside down. Extra bungee cords are used to secure the front wheel from flapping and even piece of mind knowing your bike is secure. Definitely recommend...

@rackattack 10 месяцев назад

@exploring.the.world2023 2 года назад

Nope. This Is my desire actually. To fit electric bikes and a fridge outside the car in a safe way. Preferably closed . So far I haven't found the product to help me do that in a safe and nice way. I think that I am asking too much. I want to sleep in the car because its more confortable. So the fridge has go be outside somehow. I also don't know about how to find the right hook. 100 kg max sustainability. I have a kia sportage 2017. So if you have any good ideas let me know

@DarianDT 2 года назад

This rack system block rear view camera. And if you go for a top/dual rack it basically block viewing anything from the rear. For a $2000 dual rack/box system it's not a good design.

@rackattack 2 года назад

Hello. Yes, rear visibility could be hampered, however, there are some that have no roof top options to transport their gear and then this becomes a worthwhile consideration. Thanks!
