      Comments about Yakima Copperhead Bike Mount:

      The previous reviewer clearly doesn't understand that this rack is designed to attach to a Yakima cross bar, not directly to their vehicles cross bar. When used as a part of a Yakima system this rack is a solid performer.

            Comments about Yakima Copperhead Bike Mount:

            Works great and as designed. Even with SKS locks, it's not as secure as other Yakima bike mounts. Good enough to keep honest people honest, though.
            My beef is with the read strap latch. IMO, it's a pain to release as the lever/button gets stuck sometimes.

                Only fits a small cross-bar size. Won't work on standard Rav4 2006 and newer.

                  Comments about Yakima Copperhead Bike Mount:

                  I'm a smaller female cyclist, and I was worried about using this type of roof rack, because I'm not very tall or particularly strong. However, a few of us "vertically challenged" people simply carry a folding step stool in the back of our vehicle. I wouldn't want to load heavier mountain bikes by myself on this rack, otherwise I'd have given it 5 stars. Really easy to use. I feel like critical comments in ratings are over-emphasized, with regard to difficulty in releasing rear ratchet strap. We love this rack!

                  Good bike rack that works with my square bars. Easy to install and use. Other than the plastic fading a bit to sun, the rack works well keeping my bike secure.

                    I use this to carry both my mountain bike and my road bike. Easy to adjust for different sizes. Bike stays secure even at highway speeds. Added SKS lock keeps my bike locked down when I'm away.
