    Just a heads up seen on a local forum, that thieves are using a steel pipe over 1up lock cylinder and just snapping them off. They were recommending that you use a ulock to hitch also. Just remember that is a $800 rack and yes they will gladly take you $300 add on.

    Learn from some of my past mistakes: 1) when reinstalling the saddle, double check that the wire didn't loop into the expansion slot of the seat tube 2) I would not button everything back up before testing that it was connecting to the head unit 3) do your Di2 firmware updates *before* performing the installation.

    On my GRX810, the location shown only has a pin. The actual adjustment on these is awkward to reach because it's up inside on the back behind where the pin sits in the video above. Hard to even see and harder still to reach but it takes a 2mm allen.

    You did not explain the function of the Velcro strap.

    • @hybrid902000
      @hybrid902000 ปีที่แล้ว

      It serves as a secondary safety measure keeping the rack inside the hitch from coming undone from the hitch just in case the locking ball mechanism in the rack fails. Personally I would just use a u-lock or chain lock instead of that cheesy velcro strap.

  • @LearntodriveTesla
    @LearntodriveTesla 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Might be a silly question , what do you connect that strap to? I use mine to cover the keyhole and bottom part of the lock. I see yours is just strapped to where the hitch is inserted to the car?

    • @instantalpha1484
      @instantalpha1484 ปีที่แล้ว

      I loop mine to the left side of the hitch receiver, next to where the rack is inserted. On my hitch there are metal looped mounting points on each side that are intended for safety chains (if towing a boat or whatever) and then I finish the loop around the rack itself.

      If you have the 1.25"-2" quick rack that one doesn't come with a hitch receiver lock. The 1.25" hitch bar lock that is included goes into the hole holes that cover the anti-wobble mechanism. I was told by 1Up once the rack is tightened down the steel ball locks the rack in place. 1up said wasn't enough material to add a hitch receiver lock hole (I don't know what that means).
