The Yakima StageTwo + 2 in Vapor is an add-on designed to be used in combination with the StageTwo 2" giving you the ability to carry up to 4 bikes. The StageTwo + 2 works by plugging into the end of the StageTwo 2" and gives you the ability to move the folding handle to the end of the full 4 bike.
Stadium bike positioning
In order to ensure that your bikes fit onto the rack properly and don't make contact with one another the StageTwo utilizes stadium bike positioning. This means that the outside bike tray sits 2.4" higher then the inside bike tray. There is also 11.5 inches between the bike trays to help prevent bike contact and lastly each tray has 6 inches of side to side adjustable to off set handlebars and saddles.
Fits modern bike standards and geometry
By attaching onto the front and rear wheel only the StageTwo has the ability to fit a wide range of bikes. Out of the box the StageTwo will carry bikes with up to a 52" wheel base and tires as large as 3.25". The adjustable ratching arm gives you the ability to carry smaller kids bike with a minimum of 16" tires all the way up to big 29ers. If you have a fat bike or plus bike you can purchase the available fat bike straps separately.
Easy access to back hatch or trunk
The StageTwo has an ergonomic dual access lever on the front of the bike rack that can be moved to the end of the four bike rack. This gives you the ability to tilt the rack down with your bikes loaded in order to get into your back hatch or trunk. This same handle can be used to fold the bike rack up to the back of the vehicle when the bikes are not loaded making it easier to park.
Fully locking
The StageTwo + 2 includes cable locks built into each of the arm hooks to lock your bikes onto the rack.
