TESTED: Yakima HoldUp Evo -
The Yakima HoldUp EVO bike carrier impresses with its smart design, easy mounting process, and inbuilt security. The slightly tweaked design accommodates newer bikes' specifications but remains compatible with older models. It comes without a number plate board or tail lights, which will need to be considered by buyers. Its sturdy build and ease of use contribute to its popularity among mountain bikers.
