Hi Jacob—it looks like the rear wheel bar on the 1up would crunch on my full coverage rear fender. What do you think?I use a Yakima roof rack with Raptor bars with a claw for my wife’s Betty, but those racks don’t seem to be sold anymore.Another alternative is a trunk rack with a top tube adapter for step throughs/mixtes.I bought a bar but have never needed to use it yet. Has anyone had any luck with those?Toshi in Oakland

I’ve got a 1up and a Thule t2. The Thule would not work with fenders. My 1pu is the single bike option and does a great job. Here’s a pic with an xl Gus. Road solid for about 50 miles of interstate and country roads.

If your car has a hitch with a 2" receiver and you can afford it, don't waste your money on anything other than a 1Up. You can get a single-bike heavy-duty rack for $430, the rack is expandable for up to 4 bikes, with each bike weighing no more than 50 lbs.

What about ease of installation? Are these 1UPS user-friendly in that regard? I am interested in the 1UP for all the reasons already mentioned, but also, because sometimes I'd have one bike, and sometimes I'd have to carry my wife's bike, and 2 kids' bikes, also. Nice to have the option of the add-ons (although getting ridiculously expensive). I think I'm finally done with putting my bike up on top of the car. Sadly, I'm not as strong and nimble as I was in my 20s, and my Rivendell is HEAVY (and I have a Sam).

If I had to do it all over, I’d definitely go with a 1up rack. My Küat NV2.0 is great, and I’m fine with how it works with fenders and racks… but I feel like a 1up would be more secure in those cases. Also, my Medium Gus at 50” wheelbase is the absolute maximum length the Küat will handle.On Feb 20, 2023, at 1:05 AM, JAS <swanso...@gmail.com> wrote:

We love our 1UP rack and it works pretty well with fenders.

Lots of tray mount racks seem to not be made for fenders. And the hanging style would need a bar since my Betty is a step through. This isn't for my car. I don't like to drive. Thanks in advance.
