Mountain Bikes - How are you guys carrying them??

[IWantAJeepGladiator]

Tested out the Diamondback setup this past trip. Front runner cross bars, 1UP rack on the left, and RockyMounts thru axle w/ Victory 4x4 tray on the right.

How does the RTT work off of those racks?

I just pulled the bikes off at camp and the tent opens up with the bike racks attached. I don’t generally camp where bike theft would be of concern overnight.

There is actually a kit that has them Yakima 8002122 but good luck finding it. I called Yakima and they said next Summer for availability. That’s when I broke out the snips…..

I believe I got it off Amazon a few months ago? I ordered/received them from somewhere… but nothing a few bolts can’t replace

My first post, had truck about a month. Fox Overland tailgate pad. Up to 5 bikes. With Mopar soft fold tonneau. Any wheel size or frame. Cable lock on box for bikes. Tonneau from box mount had to be modified to allow it to tilt up a bit (holds adult bike tire down as well). When in trail tonneau fold down and locks bed content /keeps things dry/clean/out of sight. Pad and tonneau play well together without bikes. Camera, third brake light, and latch unimpeded. I use hitch mount (oneup) sometimes. Moving away from it as roost of rear truck tires/snow winter grime cakes bikes. Full size bike does fit in box as well diagonal with tailgate up as I am sure you folks have noticed.

How did you modify the tonneau to flip up a bit?

I have moved over to a mopar soft roll up now. When I had trifold I had elastic straps holding front down so it could raise up a bit. Worked until straps gave up, then not too safe.

this is what I’m looking to do - diamondback with Billie Bars with full bike rack(no removing front wheel) any chance you could post a straight profile pic of the gladiator with the full bike side?

Looks sweet, thanks!

I no longer have the JT. These are probably going to be the best photos I have of it. I did off center the RTT a bit to give the 1Up more space on the Frontrunner bars.

Custom set up. I built it to be high enough for the handle bars to clear and high enough to wheel.
