Looking for a pickup bike rack that is portable, easy to install, and includes a bunch of accessories & storage? Check out the Railias System
In the mountain bike world, if you own a pickup truck, there’s a good chance you also own a tailgate pad instead of a pickup bike rack. The idea is pretty simple – put a padded cover on your tailgate that you can rest the downtube of the bike on, while the front wheel hangs over the back.
What initially drew me to their Tailgate Rack System was the fact that the bike’s frame and fork didn’t have to rest on the tailgate. Coupled with the possibility of the whole system being easily transported in a checked bag, it seemed like an intriguing way to transport a bike on a riding trip: land at the destination, rent a truck, throw on the Railias pickup bike rack, and go.
There’s definitely more involved than tossing a bike on a tailgate pad, but then again you don’t have the lift the bike as high on the Railias system. The Railias also guarantees your frame and fork won’t see any damage during transport – you’ll have to figure out something to do with your front wheel though.
