@@mrd6093 I got a hollywood rack that was half the price and can easily carry 2 heavy ebikes. Investment in a quality product made. Money wasted on expensive bells and whistles = $0
Amazing rack system, but ouchy...kind of pricey. Still, it's a long term investment that would likely be worth the cost. Regardless, fantastic video! Much appreciated!
Thanks Ken, it certainly is expensive but having this less than a week I have to say I've been loving the features. One I didn't know I'd use is just throwing on a single rack when I'm only hauling one. Much lighter to carry in/out of the garage.
This was the most comprehensive bike rack tests I've come across. That you guys showed how the rack can cleverly adapt to all shapes, sizes and even amounts of ebikes is solid gold for the prospective buyer. I'm coming from a Kuat Sherpa that served my wife and I flawlessly for years. But it can't (isn't rated) to hold the weight of an ebike. Now that we're delving into ebikes for a few reasons, this rack is checking all of the boxes. Including expandability for when our latest addition learns to ride a bike!
I’ve been looking for an eBike rack or quite some time to haul my Xclass! And this one finally ticks all the boxes! I NEED a ramp because as a female I can’t pick up my super heavy eBike! So this is perfect! Thank you for the amazing review, and when I’m ready to buy, I will make sure to use your link!
I got a Quick r Stuff single rack this year. After using it for the biking season here in Wisconsin, I can say that I made a great choice and I love this rack. I was a little concerned about how it would hold my e-bike. This rack locks down on the tires and holds that nice and tight. The bike does have some jiggle to it as I ride my car, but it is not going anywhere. I also got the license plate holder and that works great. I did not want to spend 249 dollars for a bike ramp, so I made one out of wood for under ten dollars. It works great and I just store it in my van when I am not using it. These are great racks.
I bought two of the straps and the special lock and my bike doesn’t move at all. I’m in Wisconsin too, but I haul my bike 300 miles up to St. Paul. MN and I want that baby to be sturdy. She would be anyway, but I liked the extra security. I bought the ramp as well because I have to load and unload the bike myself. Worth every penny.
@@wildwalker44 Yes, if I took it on a long bike trip, I would put a strap or two on it too. Most of the time I have a short car ride to my starting point, so I am not worried about a slight wiggle. It holds great on the tires.
It might be a great rack but rack for 2 bikes+2 locks+2 straps+ the license plate holder= almost $1400 plus tax and shipping. So you are looking at spending around $1600 for this rack. That is absurd. I don't care if it is the best rack in the world.
Great review, the video was very informative! We have 2 Rad Power Wagons so we were disappointed when you said the Power Wagon doesn’t fit. It says the max wheel base is 56” and the Rad Power Wagon has a wheelbase of 53.76”. Was that not enough margin to mount it safely for for you or were there other issues as well?
The Quik Rack states wheelbase of 56" or less. I would give them a call/email to double-check with them. I would even add ratchet straps if you wanted extra insurance for road trips. I have a hard time finding a rack that can handle my two +70lbs Radrovers fat tire ebikes and one +70lbs Radcity step-thru at the same (300lbs limit with 3 racks with 2" hitch).
Nice rack. A couple of things are supposed to happen this week. 1. Having a trailer hitch installed on my car and 2. Getting delivery of my Aventure Adventure.2. After getting the hitch installed, I will be ordering this rack as I've done a ton of research and the weight capacity of this rack makes it an easy choice for a heavy ebike. I'm one to steer toward the safe side when it comes to stuff that "could fail" and most rack state things like load capacity 120 lbs (but 60 lbs per rack). Does this mean that the 77 lb Adventure.2 can SAFELY be on this rack for a fairly long ride to a specific bike trail? Or will the rack/stall that the heavy ebike is positioned fail because the materials for the individual racks/positions may fail because the weight limit per position is exceeded? So I've decided I would rather spend the extra money to ensure that the "lesser quality rack" doesn't fail, and my insurance company isn't getting called because my ebike became dislodged, and another vehicle was damage or someone died because I cheap'd out. The only reason I'm waiting to order is to ensure there are no issues with the installation of the hitch. Oh, one thing I understand is the QuikRStuff rack has a license plate adaptor, so you can move your plate off you can to the rack so law enforcement and see your plates. (Not sure if that is something that is new(ish) or what. Looking at their site now, I believe it is an OPTION for about $80 One more thing to add, when you go to QuikRStuff's website to order, they now have an estimated shipping time on the page, which at the moment of my writing this is around 6 weeks.
We should have covered that QuikrStuff has always been very transparent on shipping time and of course, the optional license plate holder. Personally, if I get hassled I will get that, but in WI front is also required. I imagine there are more important things for the police to worry about. The huge weight capacity is an awesome selling point. Hope you enjoy the rack and remember to use our code!
@@EbikeEscape I'm in Wisconsin too, although plates are required front and rear, only the rear has the expiration sticker on it. Remember when you renew your plates you only get 1 sticker now (I guess the cost of giving us 2 like decades ago is impossible). I only mentioned it the plate adaptor as another reviewer of the QuikrStuff rack mentioned and officer that had pulled him over for something did bring of the fact that his license plate was not visible as required by law. Code? What code, let me look as I was about to order, as hitch was put on yesterday. Do you know roughly what shipping is, as they say it varies a lot? Answer atm $38 Fedex Ground, as I just ordered mine. Yup used 'THE CODE' (and it worked), estimated shipping date around 6/12/23
Nice rack, not so nice price. Why bother with the rack instead of simply putting them into you Ford Transit van. Seems easier, more secure, still allows access to gear in back of your van & won't get damaged by careless driver as described by John Lowrey 6 months ago.
I HAVE TO SAY I AM SUPER IMPRESSED BUT HAVE THE ONE UP EQUIP D MODEL. STILL A GOOD BUY THOUGH . ONE UP RACKS HAVE DIFFERENT MODELS OF WEIGHT TO CHOOSE FROM . QUIKR MAKES IT EASY OVERALL OF THE WEIGHT OF YOUR BIKE BASICALLY.
What is way cheaper than all these bike racks that they’re asking astronomical pricing. getting a motorcycle bike rack to put on the back of your car or truck way less expensive much sturdier and you’ll be so much happier.
I've never read someone getting pestered for this but yes technically you should buy the license plate holder (I won't until I get hassled). I feel like the police have more important things to worry about. Here in WI license plates are required front and rear so that helps my case too.
I'm thinking on some cars that the license plate will be covered, especially if you put a bike cover on. I know on the rack we got for an electric mobility scooter, that they supply a license plate holder bracket to mount your plate outside the rack where it's visible. Any way to not cover up your plate on this rack set up?😎
I JUST WENT TO WEBSITE THIS BIKE WONT EVEN BE SHIPPED FOR 6 WEEKS!!! HELL SUMMER IS 2 MONTHS OVER BY THEN DONT BOTHER PEOPLE FOR $699 IVE SEEN BETTER FOR $499 HELL BY LECTRIC BIKES THEM SELF AND CUSTOMER SERV IS THE BEST
In you video the back tire holder is hitting the ebike back rack and the tire lifted, so they dont hold the bike in place? At this price and the wait. Please provide s updated video
Thanks for the great video. I have a Honda Accord and the ONLY hitch available is a 1-1/4", Class 1, with max Gross Trailer Weight up to 2000 lbs and tongue weight 200 lbs. Your chart shows a *2" hitch* and you mention the capacity is 120 lbs. for a single bike 9:39 What is the carrying capacity of a single eBike for a 1-1/4 hitch? My eBike weighs approx 76 lbs. How is this rack different compare to most racks that has a capacity of 60-65 lbs per bike? I understand the 1-1/4" rack has a adapter for a 2" hitch. Does this affect the capacity load? Thanks in advance.
Yes! I have a second QuikRack for my wife's +70lbs Radcity ebike. I can attach the first QuikRack to my 2" hitch and load/secure my ebike. It takes less than a minute to attach and lock the second rack into place if I need to take a second ebike. You can do the reverse and remove the second rack before removing the first ebike.
Gentlemen, This video has actually made me rethink getting e-bike. I've been going crazy trying to decide on the best e-bike for me. While watching a ridiculous amount of videos, I finally narrowed it down to a hub drive. Next, came reviews, I've come to trust your reviews. Now I'm ambivalent. I really wanted to take the bike up to the country, until I heard about the weights of some of them. So then I went with a folding bike thinking I could toss it in my car, but it's not what I really want. Now I see that I'd need a hitch for an e-bike rack. It's getting ridiculous. The demand for e-bikes isn't like the demand for gasoline. I just saw a video with a $349. e-bike rack. I've got no problem with the QUIK engineering of this rack, they covered it all, but to get the bike, rack (even the $349.) the bike and the hitch the total cost is nuts. So withe the bike I prefer, I'm forced to only using it as a commuter. I refuse to sucked into something money on something that won't amount to more than a passing fad. And remember, these companies toss you this junk for free. I'd like to see a video on the economics of e-biking?
Another issue is, for this particular rack you are expected to pay $699 first (yes, price went up) then wait 2mos. before receiving the product. Ridiculous if you ask me...
That's a great option if you don't mind figuring out the tie downs. Some people like the purpose built solution but you can definitely save some money by going the Harbor Freight route.
Thank you! This looks like a great rack, and I'll be checking it out when I pick up my new ebike (looking at the Radster Trail thanks to your video on that too).
It's a premium rack for sure. And being made in the US does make it more pricey but if you're looking for the best, I haven't tested out anything that compares.
All aluminum and made in the USA attribute to the higher price. It's a great rack but I totally get that it's not accessible to all which is why we've featured others.
It is. Here is the quote from their website: "We approve usage for a two-bike maximum configuration with only the 2 in. hitch model on an RV or 5th Wheel. It needs to be inserted into a chassis mounted hitch receiver (not a bumper mount). " -QuikrStuff
@@pibblesnbits I think the price is relative depending on the type of bike/ebike, type of adventures you want to take, storage options when not in use, ease of use for all skill and strength levels, and how long you are planning to keep the rack. My 4'11" wife can install and use this rack with ramp for her +65lbs Radcity ebike alone. She couldn't do that with our Saris SuperClamp 4 platform rack or Softride Dura 4 hanging bike rack we had before ebikes.
Just ordered mine today 🤞 it's about 6 weeks out (5/11 - 6/28). Ordering the main rack, ramp, 2 locks, 2 straps, taxes & shipping nearly $1,300!!! 😳 Then about and additional $700-$800 per bike. So yeah Big Bucks! However, it'll hold my 80 lbs Mokwheel Obsidian, etc.
Great video, thank you. I was looking at this rack for my purpose. I am looking to rack (3) ebikes; (2) @ 60lbs and (1) @ 30lbs. I am also looking to mount this on my truck as well as my camping trailer. Thoughts on if this is possible? thank you.
Well made & glad it is made in the USA. What I do not like is it takes 6 weeks to get & they take your money up front.. All said & done it cost me over $1,000 to carry a single bike. I need a rack now because someone backed into my bike rack & took off. I do not mind spending the money because it is well made in the USA but to take all of the money up front & have to wait 6 weeks
I agree that can be off putting. But 2 things that I think make that a bit of a mute point. You are 100% aware of the lead time prior to purchase. So you are not paying, and then finding out that it will be 6 weeks until you recieve your order. And on top of that, they offer a 100% refund, at anytime during the manufacturing process.
@@EbikeEscape I don't have one I currently have a little Jetson Bolt pro which can be tossed in the trunk, and am considering the Letric expedition as my next bike
Is the only reason to spend the extra $775 on the Mach2 over the 1up Superduty to get a higher weight capacity? I have 1 fat tire ebike so both meet it just fine for my 3 family bikes. Thanks for the review!

Enjoy!
Is it approved for use on a bumper hitch travel trailer? My bikes weight about 70 lbs.
No, needs to be a frame hitch and not a bumper hitch.
Ebike racks are so ridiculous in price, I can buy a harbor freight dirt bike rack and be done for under $200
That's a great option if you don't mind figuring out the tie downs. Some people like the purpose built solution but you can definitely save some money by going the Harbor Freight route.
Thank you! This looks like a great rack, and I'll be checking it out when I pick up my new ebike (looking at the Radster Trail thanks to your video on that too).
How do you get into the back hatch of an suv with the bikes on? Does the rack forl downward?
They do but your vehicle will determine whether it will clear with a bike attached. Some will only clear with one ebike in the outer position .
So KOOOL !!! But the Rack cost more than your beloved ebike. Then there is the wait time to get your rack. How's your sense of humor ??
Would this be good for my Honda accord? Got an E Ride Pro SS
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

The 1up Extreme is priced high for one bike. I like the no tools option.
I have two bikes. one is 100Lb and one is 150Lb . would it work ??
Just ordered mine today 🤞 it's about 6 weeks out (5/11 - 6/28). Ordering the main rack, ramp, 2 locks, 2 straps, taxes & shipping nearly $1,300!!! 😳 Then about and additional $700-$800 per bike. So yeah Big Bucks! However, it'll hold my 80 lbs Mokwheel Obsidian, etc.
.. But I'm also ordering a Riese & Muller Homage4 GT Rohloff HS .. sooo yeah.
Interesting that you said you wouldn't normally put an Ariel Rider Grizzly on a bike rack. Why?
Just that many racks can't handle the weight
What about the RadWagon 4 ? This rack can hold this EB?
What size receiver do you need on your car for a Mach 2?
They offer both a 1.25" and 2" option for the base. Just have to be aware of what your car's hitch weight capacity is.
I wanted to see the Lectric XP 3.0 and all you did was roll it up the ramp. darn
Beautiful design. Ouch, the price of a nice, new bike.
Great bike rack AND MADE IN USA!!!! SOLD!!!
Great video, thank you. I was looking at this rack for my purpose. I am looking to rack (3) ebikes; (2) @ 60lbs and (1) @ 30lbs. I am also looking to mount this on my truck as well as my camping trailer. Thoughts on if this is possible? thank you.
I don't believe it's recommended for RVs but this is an area I'm an expert in.
Did you test that cargo bike. It looked ok when the car was parked, but it seemed a little loose.
When you say "lock" as in when your locking in the 2nd tray. Can it actually be locked with a key or is it just as easy to steal as it is to install?
It locks if you want it to. Red pull spring latch secures it to the first tray and you can actually lock it with the blue locks which are keyed.
Does this rack pull down, or can you add a swing away to get into the back hatch or back door of the vehicle?
Yes!
WIsh they made a trike rack
I love that this handles a long wheel base ebike!
What keeps someone from stealing the rack off your vehicle?
The tightening mechanism had a build in lock. So you can’t fully untwist the anti-rattle system.
Well, the areo ride grizzle block the rear car light
So, I take my bikes to the trailhead. How is the “theftability” of it all? No tools needed, you said.
All of the blue knobs have locks on them. So once you turn and lock the blue knob into the hitch, your rack is locked in place.
Well made & glad it is made in the USA. What I do not like is it takes 6 weeks to get & they take your money up front.. All said & done it cost me over $1,000 to carry a single bike. I need a rack now because someone backed into my bike rack & took off. I do not mind spending the money because it is well made in the USA but to take all of the money up front & have to wait 6 weeks
I agree that can be off putting. But 2 things that I think make that a bit of a mute point. You are 100% aware of the lead time prior to purchase. So you are not paying, and then finding out that it will be 6 weeks until you recieve your order. And on top of that, they offer a 100% refund, at anytime during the manufacturing process.
@@EbikeEscape it's now a 8 week wait
Why didn’t you put 2 on together?
Would this work with Juiced hyper scorpion?
Should, just be mindful of fender limitations.
Will you be reviewing the 1Up Extreme?
Not anytime soon but would like to check it out.
Wish they made a trike rack.
The one up is nice
I wonder if it could handle a bakfiets style cargo bike like an Urban Arrow
I wouldn't think so since they are so wide. Maybe on the outside tray?
@@EbikeEscape I don't have one I currently have a little Jetson Bolt pro which can be tossed in the trunk, and am considering the Letric expedition as my next bike
Works great - very well made
Great review!!
9:51 and next we have the Cat!
He insists on making a cameo in most of the videos he is around for.
Great video.
Thanks!
I need to test it!
You'll love it.
Thanks
Thank you! The Quikr rack does have some awesome accessories for helping load these heavier ebikes.
Is the only reason to spend the extra $775 on the Mach2 over the 1up Superduty to get a higher weight capacity? I have 1 fat tire ebike so both meet it just fine for my 3 family bikes. Thanks for the review!
Tool less is huge (at least for me)
I WONDER WHY THEY DIDNT SHOW 2 FAT TIRE EBIKES LOADED?? THATS WHAT I WANTED TO SEE WE HAVE X2 LECTRIC EXPEDITION BIKES
