Yakima EasyRider Trailer – Two-Level Multi-Sport Gear Trailer for Kayaks, Bikes & More
The Yakima EasyRider Trailer is a premium, two-tier, lightweight aluminum gear trailer built to haul more toys—long fishing kayaks, canoes, bikes, cargo boxes, and camp gear—without lifting everything onto your roof. With two levels of storage and Yakima’s 78" HD Bars, it’s a versatile base for nearly any Yakima mount, helping you travel loaded and organized for bigger weekends and longer road trips.
Designed for real highway miles, the EasyRider uses shock absorbers to cushion your gear from vibration and rough roads, while the corrosion-resistant aluminum construction keeps things durable through wet launches and changing seasons. A folding tongue makes storage far easier in a garage or side yard, and submersible tail lights are launch-ready at the ramp.
Two Levels, More Possibilities
The EasyRider’s two-level layout lets you separate bulky boats from smaller gear, or run different setups for paddling and cycling—up top and down below. The included 78" Yakima HD Bars accept Yakima accessories, with T-slot compatibility for fast, clean mounting on the upper bars.
Launch-Friendly, Road-Trip Ready
From the built-in kickstand to the integrated handle that helps maneuver the trailer by hand, the EasyRider is designed to be practical at the ramp and easy at the campsite. It can also be configured into a utility-style hauler for weekend projects, and it’s compatible with Yakima accessories like TentKit™ (sold separately) for select rooftop tent setups.
