Re: [RBW] There’s a new man in my life, and his name is Clem

I’ve also read where some folks keep a small piece of rigid foam in their bike bag to wedge between tire and fender to equalize the “pressure” exerted on the fender by the 1Up bar. Quotes around “pressure” because you don’t need that much...certainly not enough to damage a fender. Nice idea,

Re: [RBW] There’s a new man in my life, and his name is Clem

I use a 3 place 1 up and I wouldn’t worry about the weight capacity. It’s very stout. I carry an ebike, Cheviot, and an Atlantis, all with fenders. The Cheviot is my only bike with metal fenders. I adjusted that foam fender piece so it meets the fender just above the fender stay. I’ve had no

Re: [RBW] There’s a new man in my life, and his name is Clem

I am not totally familiar with the 1up system, but speaking about physics, hitch mounts and multi-bike racks in general. Theoretically, if capacity is 4, 50lb bikes then max load is 200lbs. The problem with one bike over 50lbs would likely be where it's located on the rack. Place the heaviest

Re: [RBW] There’s a new man in my life, and his name is Clem

Well, ok, but is the fender cushion a great idea? I’d rather not have the bar press on my fenders at all. Also, I need a 4 bike rack, and while 1 Up can make that possible, it has 50 lb weight restrictions per bike. I think the ebike is more than 50 but less than Saris’ 60 lb limit. 1 Up says

Re: [RBW] There’s a new man in my life, and his name is Clem

Leah, 1up makes a “Fender Cushion”, which is a piece of cylindrical foam, wrapped in a soft material which attaches with Velcro. The Fender Cushion wraps around the little bars that ordinarily press into your tire. Works fine, though you could make these things yourself with foam pipe
