I have always had a fascination with racks, especially large ones.
Put some thought into buying this rack. Minimal contact with painted surfaces and no hanging tires. What do you use?
This is Wisconsin, a pickup bed full of snow no worky.
A four bike rack. This is a Rage rack with the optional two bike extension. Bought the extension to carry three bikes but as you can see holds two apart very comfortably.
The foam on the tires is to mount narrow tires more solidly in wide tire saddles.
Here is the only contact on a painted surface.
Holds the bikes very solidly to the rack although the rack itself moves around quite a bit while driving. Maybe that helps deflect some of the impact of pot holes and such but it is was it is. I'm happy with it, no paint abrasions from things moving around and that was the main concern.
You didn't think I was talking about this did you? Get your mind out of the gutter, there is only so much room in there.
