Product Description: The Yakima DeadLock System locks bikes and hitch bike rack with one key!
Amazon.com Product Description: Enjoy peace of mind while driving with your bikes with the Yakima DeadLock. Offering an easy way to lock your bikes directly to your Yakima hitch-mount bike rack--and in turn secure your hitch-mount to your car--the DeadLock strikes fear into the hearts of devious thieves. The unit includes an upper lock that secures the outside bike to the hitch-mount using a cable and steel pin, along with a hitch lock that secures the rack to your vehicle. Drivers can rest assured that the DeadLock will hold up to use and abuse thanks to the lock's injection-molded design and metal core. Plus, the lock comes with a single key for locking both your bikes and the rack. As with all Yakima products, the DeadLock carries a limited lifetime warranty.
