Is the HoldUp 2" compatible with Yakima's swing base?
Yes, the 2" model is compatible with the Yakima BackSwing. The 1.25" model is not.
How do I know if my hitch receiver is compatible with this bike rack?
There are a few factors to consider. What size hitch do you have would be the first place to start. The two most common standards are 1.25" and 2". The next thing to consider would be the depth of the hitch pin hole, most bike racks need a pin hole depth of at least 1.5" to be properly seated in the receiver. Last, but not least. Consider what "class" hitch receiver you have. This is essentially a rating of how strong the hitch receiver is. Most receivers are rated for a minimum of a two bike rack with bikes, but it doesn't hurt to check with the manufacturer of your hitch receiver if you are unsure. This mostly comes into play with the 1.25" receivers, but can be a factor for 2" receivers as well when considering adding a swing base like Yakima's BackSwing to the equation.
