Great review. An easy way to put a heavy e-bike on the rack is to set the bike next to the rack; hold the rear brake and lift the front wheel, using the rear wheel as a pivot point; put the front wheel on the tray; and then lift the rear wheel onto the tray. It has the effect of cutting the weight by around 1/3.
i bought a super duty single unit and one add-on then a bunch of my friends followed suit after seeing how awesome and sturdy this bike rack is! then we just lend each other an add-on if we're shuttling or someone needs to load more than 2 bikes for friends or visitors. we love it!
We’ve had ours for 7 years. Still looks and works like new. Added a single rack so we can carry 3 bikes, and the swing out arm for when we have it on the camper. Glad to see you use the best of the best! 🎉
I thought this might be a bit silly BUT it was super well done. All of its 100% spot on. I would only add that customer service is AMAZING! My slide rack got hard to slide due to dirt or something. They sent a PDF file, I loosened a bolt, not the one on the would have assumed or seemed like a first wrench point…. Oiled it a bit and back in the saddle so to speak! Super overview! As always
Love the 1up rack. Nice job covering some of the many benefits. One key advantages over most racks of is the ability to roll the bike forward and back to get the bikes to fit just right and avoiding touching.
Welcome! 1 UP USA has been my company of choice for close to a decade. From spin trainers in the early days to bike racks (add on platforms good!) locks, lights, etc. Great company. Oh, and if you hold the release in a neutral position when moving it it saves the track. Just be mindful of the tray width and weight limits, especially with full power (weight) e-bikes and wider tires available. 3" max, or you need to use a ratchet strap to assist as the wheel guides will not fit over the wheel, and fatbike tires do NOT fit into, but hang over the tray. Sketchy, not recommended, doable in a pinch. (ask me how I know?) Nice to see you posting again . . .
We've had a super heavy duty for close to two years now, and I have literally seen (and counted) 183 unique 1UP rack owners over the course of the ~2 years, crazy popular but for good reason.......
This is awesome April. So great meeting you back at Eagle bike park awhile back. This rack will be perfect for my dad's new Grand Highlander. Love the expandability. I'm still grinding away at my YT channel too. You were right, it's hard, but do what you love and it's nothing but fun. See you on the hill!
I have the 1UP. I bought it because I have 2 ebikes and they are not light. While the cost is stupid high, the peace of mind is WELL worth it. I love how easy it is to load and unload and I like how it’s customizable. I am not a big guy and my bikes are heavy af, so having a carrier that does not injure me while loading/unloading is a true plus. I cannot imagine a better solution for bike/ebike transport.
Great review April, I picked up the super heavy duty version last year and it's been such a game changer. I put ALL my bikes on it, including my Surron + Battery (which this rack is actually designed for, 150lbs)... the quality is superior to anything else.
I love my 1up rack. Most of my riding is BMX racing with my kids in the summer, plus fatbiking in the winter. I have 2 add-ons, for 3 20" bikes plus a 24" cruiser, and with the add-on the rack can handle everything from the 20x 1 1/8" mini BMX tires to my 26x 4.8" fattie.
April great review of the 1UP rack. I love how it was designed. I got mine 2 years ago and realized that the price of a good rack is better than replacing a bike that has fallen off or damaged by a less expensive rack.1Up has not let me down. Great review. I sent this video to some buddies who are looking for a good rack system.
This was a really great video review! Really well done and I appreciate how much you actually demonstrated rather than just a bunch of hand waiving. Thanks for making this!
Been using the 1up for years, their customer service was great when the rack broke, sent out the replacement part quickly and no fighting to get it. Use it on my wife’s car, she can get her bike on and off by herself. One complaint about the locks, you can easily break them off with a hammer in less than a minute. All locks can be beat though, so I supplement with a chain as well when I know we are going to stop somewhere.
Had no idea that lock was for the wheel! I always put it through the holes on my hitch as double security to prevent it from being stolen and to ensure maximum clearance from my vehicle! Guess I'll get another one to secure the wheel as well!😅
I bought the super duty a couple years ago and love this rack. Durable, easy to use and very secure. I had to pay a little extra for the anodized black though just because.
same here, gotta have the black. Super Duty is also rated for off road use, which a few of the trail heads I hit up require some light off road with my ebike in tow
You touched on all the amazing benefits on the 1up! Love mine so much! For me, I started off with 2 trays for a roof rack. Then when I got a car with a 1 1/4" hitch, I only had to buy the hitch assembly instead of a completely new rack. Also for future proofing, I got the 2" hitch assembly but they have an adapter to use with a smaller hitch, so again, I could use everything just once instead of having to buy a completely new rack for different vehicles. And having replacement parts for every part on the rack makes it where you can pretty much use it forever, only replacing parts that get damaged or wear out. The modular aspect is nice too - you can put on as many racks as needed. They also have scratch and dent sales several times a year so it's a good way to get what you want at a discount! Their customer support is great too - they helped me figure out exactly what I needed to upgrade it the way I needed. I can't gush enough about them! Super solid product - no plastic parts to break.
Great Racks. Just a heads up for those of you using the wheel lock. I know most of you know this, but it's really easy to defeat that lock. Simply just take out the thru axle and pop the bike off as if you were removing the wheel. Yes the thief would technically be leaving behind 1x wheel (front or rear depending on where you put the wheel lock) but that can still be a spendy loss that literally would only take about 10 seconds to defeat.
I was going to say the same thing. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a single wheel firmly secured to a bike rack around the city or on campus.
Hey April, very cool bike rack. The designers really thought the usabilty out. I live in New Zealand were products here are limited and quality often junk. Where possible I try importing stuff from USA because more options and still making quality products. By the way...Happy New Year and success for 2024
I have the same rack, and came from the nicest Kuat, Gave up the built-in work stand Kuat had, but i HATED the straps that Kuat uses. The 1 UP is so much burlier, serves its purpose. And like you said, security its fantastic.
Great review, April. I am very biased on these racks because of everything you mentioned plus living on a peninsula with coastal tropical weather I need something that will last. (FL) I've been strictly using 1UP racks now since 2017 and have been a "bad influence" to my inner circle of riders as they splurged with buying one of their own. ☺️ They're great because they are aluminum with SS hardware. Great for us Floridians where stuff rusts quickly and gets beat up by the sun. Love your perspective on the rack. Congrats and I know you too will have years of simplicity transporting your babies to your shreddy destinations. 🤘🏽
1 UP started as a local (to me) design by an engineer. Our engineering university has great summer and winter trails. The company has been sold and moved on.
Thanks for the great review !! Is there a danger of bending the wheels on heavy e-bikes ? I noticed that my disk breaks are rubbing after unloading from the rack. they were not rubbing before the car ride ...
i have their “van tray” i love it. i keep my bikes inside the van, but it would be nice to carry them on the rack now and then. however they are a little pricey for occasional use.
Hi, I know you r ready separated with Kyle but thanks for all your videos, God bless you and wherever you do,Do it's in the on the Lord thanks again and I'm going to follow you
Nicely done review April! Really looks like a well designed product with lots of options and easy to use. Sure would consider it when I will be I looking for a bike rack!
I always use the wheel locks. You may have a slow leak and not know it, but if the rack gets loose due to a low tire, then you know you won’t have any chance of the bike coming super loose.
With the EZ Pull Handle, can you tilt down the light in the upright position? I have the same setup and the big handle gets in the way, the old smaller one worked before....
Somewhat surprised you didn't purchase/review the Equip'D version of this rack - it is the next generation of the one you have. Has longer and wider trays, sturdier arms, base, etc., and is only slightly more expensive. The longer trays are very helpful in staggering more than one bike so that bike parts don't collide, etc. The one you review, while still good, is a bit outdated when compared to the newer version... The only part of the original that I feel might be slightly better is the release lever is longer and sturdier and thus provides more leverage in releasing the arms... The newer version has a plastic finger tab and if the arms are tightened to a decent extent it can be difficult to release the tension when removing the bikes from the rack... Love 1UpUSA and as you noted, that they are made in the US. Big fan of you two as well....
Best bike racks, by far. It hurts my heart every time I see someone with a kuat/Thule bike rack that is MORE expensive, but made overseas with inferior materials.
“Bike lock” paired with quick release skewer up front and tool removable rear wheel. Goodbye frame. Well at least you’ll end up with a pair of tires. Not a total loss. Locking system needs to go through frame but it is better than nothing at all. 😂
Congratulations! That is a really nice bikerack which I really admire!!! I have no criticism of your choice. It was my second choice, as I wanted a multi-purpose rack to mount on the back of my 3/4 Ton Diesel Ram. I chose a much heavier duty Thule which expands to 4 bikes and I have even hauled mattresses to the dump and a bale of hay, along with my Commencal, to the Oregon Coast. But, for just a wonderful bikerack, you chose the best! Thank you - I enjoyed your review. 😊
Had one now for about 3 or 4 years. I feel like its greatest feature is downright toughness. Recently put on another fat bike adapter so I can haul 2 fatties.
You did a great job, describing pretty much all the functions and the available accessories but most importantly You omitted the base price of this rack. So now I have to google search the rack to find out the price. By you omitting the price it makes me feel as though the price is extremely high and that you probably work for the company and this is a promotional video, but in a few minutes, I’ll find out.
I love the rack as well but I still don't own one. Only issue I have noticed since I am in a Bay Area Mtb group is the racks themselves seem to get stolen very easily. My understanding is the lock to the hitch. Thieves are able to break the lock and just steal everything. Shared Craigslist post in my group with OneUps with the missing hitch lock seems to be happening way to often😢. Plus Craigslist post with individuals selling multiple racks.
@KyleAprilRideMTB very true. I know some people wrote that they do some kind of extra heavy duty locks to the hitch because the hitch pin can be broken to easily.
Quikr is even better. Same basic design, but being able to go from one bike up to four is great and their other small features really set them apart from 1Up.
Hello I had a question regarding your timp peak. I'm in between bike size and also 5'6" considering a small vs medium. Are you riding a size small timp peak? Does the small feel balanced or does it ever feel nose heavy? I tried a small turbo levo previously although the size was very nice but it felt slightly nose heavy at times but the medium frame didn't. I'm considering buying a fezzari just would like your opinion on the bike/feel for the frame size. Much appreciated.
You’re in luck because I am also 5’6”! I ride a small timp peak. One thing about e bikes in general is they might feel a little nose heavy at first if you are not use to them or haven’t ridden one in a little bit, so just give it a day or so to get the feel again.
Security of bikeracks is a problem. Crooks are breaking these little locks (boat trailers as well). I bought a real 3/8" Belgium Chain (from Oregon Logging) and wrapped it around underneath my truck hitch and then around my rack and locked it with a gigantic Italian lock (also from Oregon Logging). Any time my bikes are outside a restaurant, we sit by the window and can see my bike with the 3/8" chain wrapped around it. In our college town, they will also steal your little lights soooo fast - but I pull them off into my pockets. A lightning theft was observed right outside our financial advisor's window. The owner gave chase and got the pickup's description and it was stopped on the way out of town. BTW my bikes at home are chained to a longer 1/2" Belgium Chain. As I type, my Commencal sits indoor beside me at our Coast Cabin. We are just getting ready to head home with it sittling locked onto the rack.
@@AprilRideMTB Thanks for the reply. Seems to be an opportunity for the manufacturer to design a lock that goes through the main triangle although I doubt many of us would leave our bikes on the rack for any length of time.
Bike racks on big-ass pick up trucks with hug cargo beds - classic. WTH is the truck even for? (Other than drinking gas, blinding us with headlights that aim up into the sky and penis over-compensation)?
Nice that the rack doesn't use any plastic parts that eventually wither after some time. Most racks use plastic or rubber straps to hold and/or secure then easily break.
Don't trust the locks they can be cut in seconds. You will be stopped by Police because the rack covers your tag and turn signals. You can make a place to extend the tag.
This question has been asked now a few times on a few different platforms, the lack of reply, I think, gives you the answer, I pray I’m wrong as I love these guys, but hey, that’s life.
Great review. An easy way to put a heavy e-bike on the rack is to set the bike next to the rack; hold the rear brake and lift the front wheel, using the rear wheel as a pivot point; put the front wheel on the tray; and then lift the rear wheel onto the tray.

They are great racks, I also have the swing out arm so it is easier to get in the bed of my Ram 1500 when I'm camping. That tail light is a good idea!

We have 2 1UP racks in our household, one back to almost 15 years now, and both are still like new!
I didn’t think I’d find something to beat my current rack, but this is really well thought out. Very user friendly and expandable.
Which rack do you have?

Good review. I got the regular 1Up last year and have been extremely happy with it. Easy to use, super stable, and small storage footprint to boot.
When we ordered our 1up rack we made sure to order all the locks that we thought we needed so they would all be keyed the same.
We've had a super heavy duty for close to two years now, and I have literally seen (and counted) 183 unique 1UP rack owners over the course of the ~2 years, crazy popular but for good reason.......

1UP is a great rack! And if you need a swing away the Rocky Mounts is the goto so you can access the back of the vehicle. Both great companies.
Took you long enough. I’ve been rocking this rack since 2015!
I have the 1UP. I bought it because I have 2 ebikes and they are not light.

I just got a 1UP Rack as well. So far, it’s great! 😊👍
1up really does make some durable racks. Nice review, April!
Love my one up. I really miss you Kyle.
Nice job April! Obviously, the 1Up rack has upped its game more than I knew.
Amazing review here of this amazing bike rack, I never knew these were even a thing until this video
I have one and love it, it's so easy to put on and off!

There is a shorter lock too for the hitch and I do use that there!
My buddy has this with the 4 bike set up. He loves it and also likes the stepped design! It’s on my short list for sure.
What a well designed bike rack. That's the way to do it (some of those e-bikes are certainly on the weighty side).
Nice Rack!
I’ve had my 1up since 2021 on my TRD OR 4x4. It’s solid and has never let me down. Great product and 100% worth the money.
Awesome!

Would be a lot harder to take it off if it’s through the back wheel!
I was going to say the same thing. I can't tell you how many times I've seen a single wheel firmly secured to a bike rack around the city or on campus.
Thank you for telling us about your rack!

Great review, April. I am very biased on these racks because of everything you mentioned plus living on a peninsula with coastal tropical weather I need something that will last. (FL)
I've been strictly using 1UP racks now since 2017 and have been a "bad influence" to my inner circle of riders as they splurged with buying one of their own. ☺️
They're great because they are aluminum with SS hardware. Great for us Floridians where stuff rusts quickly and gets beat up by the sun. Love your perspective on the rack. Congrats and I know you too will have years of simplicity transporting your babies to your shreddy destinations. 🤘🏽
Thanks for adding your experience with them, such a positive to have things stand coastal conditions!
1 UP started as a local (to me) design by an engineer. Our engineering university has great summer and winter trails. The company has been sold and moved on.
@@unknownKnownunknowns I don't know the current organization of the company
Nice! Super helpful great job
Thanks for the great review !!
Is there a danger of bending the wheels on heavy e-bikes ?

i have their “van tray” i love it. i keep my bikes inside the van, but it would be nice to carry them on the rack now and then. however they are a little pricey for occasional use.
Great video April! I've been considering buying one of these! I didn't know about the add-ons!
Glad you learned more!
These are awesome racks! Great choice!
Awesome!
the only choice if you have a choice. 👍👍👍
That's dope you can load the moto without removing the bike rack!
Right, major plus!
Great review.
Nice Review! very cool😎
Great video 🇺🇸
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi, I know you r ready separated with Kyle but thanks for all your videos, God bless you and wherever you do,Do it's in the on the Lord thanks again and I'm going to follow you
I always lift the levers while lowering the wheel arms to avoid wearing out the sawtooth part and avoid that buzzing sound
Same when using the handbrake in the car
Nicely done review April! Really looks like a well designed product with lots of options and easy to use. Sure would consider it when I will be I
looking for a bike rack!
Thank you!
I always use the wheel locks. You may have a slow leak and not know it, but if the rack gets loose due to a low tire, then you know you won’t have any chance of the bike coming super loose.
Wow it does go tight to the bumper.
With the EZ Pull Handle, can you tilt down the light in the upright position? I have the same setup and the big handle gets in the way, the old smaller one worked before....
Cool, what happens when both tyres deflate? How do those wheel locks stop my frame getting stolen?
Great review
Always wanted to bolt like 20 of these together 😂
Do you think the aluminum will be better than the black? My thoughts are the black will scratch and end up not looking as good over time.
Good review thanks.

1Up just released (4/18/24) their updated Super Duty. Greater weight capacity and easier arm release mechanism.
Best bike racks, by far. It hurts my heart every time I see someone with a kuat/Thule bike rack that is MORE expensive, but made overseas with inferior materials.

Keep it up April!! Hello from Costa Rica 👍🏼👍🏼
1UP should consider making a rack for that dirt bike....
Good review. Good video. Enjoyed Kyle's recent podcast as well
Glad you enjoyed it and the podcast, thank you!
Like mine very much; however, read reviews where easy pull bar doesn’t work.
Great Rack👍do you know if this is also available in Germany ? Best regards Frank from Frankfurt GER🤗
Honestly I’m not sure, I’m sure it can easily be found on their site though!
I love the rack as well but I still don't own one. Only issue I have noticed since I am in a Bay Area Mtb group is the racks themselves seem to get stolen very easily.

@KyleAprilRideMTB very true. I know some people wrote that they do some kind of extra heavy duty locks to the hitch because the hitch pin can be broken to easily.
why are you soo out of breath April?! :D haha
Informative and patriotic. Great video!
Quikr is even better. Same basic design, but being able to go from one bike up to four is great and their other small features really set them apart from 1Up.
Is the LED bar connected to a 4-pin wire? How does is work?
Yes, I plug it into the truck like a trailer.
Hello I had a question regarding your timp peak. I'm in between bike size and also 5'6" considering a small vs medium. Are you riding a size small timp peak? Does the small feel balanced or does it ever feel nose heavy? I tried a small turbo levo previously although the size was very nice but it felt slightly nose heavy at times but the medium frame didn't. I'm considering buying a fezzari just would like your opinion on the bike/feel for the frame size. Much appreciated.
You’re in luck because I am also 5’6”! I ride a small timp peak. One thing about e bikes in general is they might feel a little nose heavy at first if you are not use to them or haven’t ridden one in a little bit, so just give it a day or so to get the feel again.
@@AprilRideMTBthank you for your response and feed back! love your guy's videos. 👍
Security of bikeracks is a problem. Crooks are breaking these little locks (boat trailers as well). I bought a real 3/8" Belgium Chain (from Oregon Logging) and wrapped it around underneath my truck hitch and then around my rack and locked it with a gigantic Italian lock (also from Oregon Logging). Any time my bikes are outside a restaurant, we sit by the window and can see my bike with the 3/8" chain wrapped around it. In our college town, they will also steal your little lights soooo fast - but I pull them off into my pockets.
A lightning theft was observed right outside our financial advisor's window. The owner gave chase and got the pickup's description and it was stopped on the way out of town.
BTW my bikes at home are chained to a longer 1/2" Belgium Chain.
As I type, my Commencal sits indoor beside me at our Coast Cabin. We are just getting ready to head home with it sittling locked onto the rack.
What stops you pulling the axles and just walking away with the frame?
I usually lock the back wheel, so it would be harder to do so and if I’m in an area that seems more sketchy I use a chain.
@@AprilRideMTB Thanks for the reply. Seems to be an opportunity for the manufacturer to design a lock that goes through the main triangle although I doubt many of us would leave our bikes on the rack for any length of time.
Bike racks on big-ass pick up trucks with hug cargo beds - classic.
WTH is the truck even for? (Other than drinking gas, blinding us with headlights that aim up into the sky and penis over-compensation)?
Nice that the rack doesn't use any plastic parts that eventually wither after some time. Most racks use plastic or rubber straps to hold and/or secure then easily break.
So Beautiful 🔄⭕🔄 until the next
Any discount codes or coupon codes?
Ooooh, sweet Taco.
That Fezzari license plate is legal in 50 states?
Yes haha
What’s happened to Kyle ??? Hope he’s ok 🤞as I think this is the 3rd or 4th video without him 🤔
its a tank. and its also off road rated. ive had mind for 12 years, even after getting rear ended.
That’s awesome!
@@AprilRideMTB do you like the easy pull handle? I want to buy it but I just don’t want to spend the money for it.
Great rack
Don't trust the locks they can be cut in seconds. You will be stopped by Police because the rack covers your tag and turn signals. You can make a place to extend the tag.
They make a license Plate attachment!
what happened to Kyle?
I just came here to ask the same question. Where’s Kyle?
This question has been asked now a few times on a few different platforms, the lack of reply, I think, gives you the answer, I pray I’m wrong as I love these guys, but hey, that’s life.
Nothing happened. She’s allowed to make her own videos guys. The channel is still Kyle&April.
Thanks April I have an eye on one of those racks so it was great to see this pop up in my feed to get another perspective.
He does the radio ads!!
would have like to seen those arms in question made of steel….personally…
