- As the title implies, this video demonstrates how to use the Yakima SpeedKnob. The Yakima SpeedKnob is utilized by multiple contemporary Yakima Hitch Bike Racks. Its function is to secure and lock the hitch rack into the hitch receiver.
Just what I was looking for. Great video
Maybe convenient, but would make me nervous to put a few grand of bikes on. I see a few reviews on amazon where this thing slid out of the receiver and totaled the bikes. Really wish there was still an option to put a pin through so its absolutely sure not going to disengage.
Just bought one used and I was thinking the same thing!
The safety pin you put in comes out too easy
Some models of the ridgeback have the safety pin. I know mine does.
A little silicone lube and whacking the red knob did it. Thanks.
I know this is a long shot, but does anyone know where to get a replacement wedge? I'm missing the big silver wedge and whatever else goes in the shaft
Same. Been lookin for it for years now.
Hope that helps you too
Where do you buy those hitch holders for storing the bike rack? So cool!
Mine won’t release and stuck in
Who designs this shit? The pin doesn't go all the through and it cannot because the threaded rod that tightens the anchor is completely in the way. I have an 1.25 hitch so the extra spacers get removed . The pin barely goes in and doesn't even go straight in because the rod is in the way. I'm still waiting for my trailer hitch to be delivered so I haven't actually put bike rack into the hitch yet but this design seems illogical so far.
