Products made to conquer any trail
Great rack at a great price. Love all the features: interchangeable axle inserts, multiple mounting options, sleek low profile look. They thought of it all. Even has a built in cable lock. However, the cable lock is the source of my only complaint. It rattles around so badly it can be heard inside of my car. The cable has a clear rubber coating on it but doesn’t seem to do much. Other than that A+ product, plan to purchase a 2nd.
If you’re not trying to mount this with t-track or bolting it on an overland style rack… ignore this and leave knowing this thing rocks and is basically perfect. But. For those of you who have stayed. I put this rack on an overland style truck rack (KB VOODOO Fabs rack). All these new overland racks are flat and about 3” wide beams with slotted bolt holes to attach racks, tents, and so on. For some reasons…. The bolt holes on the nose of the switch hitter are not centered. Even with switching out the bottom mounting plate (the flat one that has slotted bolt holes… yet the noses bolt holes are not slotted) the bolt holes are again not centered so it rests on the sloping front part of the nose. When you try to tighten it. It bends back where the nose is connected to the main rack body. I drilled two holes. In the center. And now it can sit on any flat surface that is up to 4.5” wide. I’m sure there is a nerdy engineering reason why they decided to put the holes where they are… but centering them… seems like a great idea. So until then. This will fit on an overland style rack. You just need to drill two new centered holes. And then it will be custom and you can add that to your overlanding forum tag. I know I will.
Just received (2) LS’s via the UPS man today. Everything from turn time, packaging, instructions, and product exceeded expectations. Construction and finish is solid, install instructions have pics and print, sleek design w/ integrated security. Stoked for tomorrow’s shake down ride to the trail head. Cheers Rocky Mounts!
I had 2 of these on my roof for the past year and they’ve been amazing. I have a mix of QR and thru axle bikes and these racks have been perfect. Easy to use and easy to swap between Thru axle and QR bikes.
I installed this bike rack on a 2013 Subaru Impreza hatchback and it fits! I had to scoot my Thule AeroBlade Edge crossbars all the way forward so that the end of the rack wouldn't hit the glass of my trunk, when open. Really high quality materials and bike feels really solid. Went with RockyMounts because it is cheaper than the Thule offerings, plus the spare parts are way cheaper too. Bought the rack at REI for 120$.
