I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the way the hitch lock doesn’t lock it to the hitch, but just covering the special Allen key hole ? And thoughts on the special key? 😅 I see myself losing that…

Haha! I would MUCH prefer a proper hitch lock. I even had mine ready to go. I think 1up expects you to lose one since they give you 2 in the box haha. Im keeping one in the truck and one in my tool box haha. I think they went that route because of the 1.25" to 2" adapter being pre-installed.

I'm not entirely certain because I don't have fenders. Unlike the Kuat and Thule, however, the 1Up fits the frontmost and rear most side of the tires.....not an arm (Kuat/Thule) that must be fastened all the way at/adjacent to the front fork. So if your fenders do not travel ALL the way around the tire....this should theoretically work. It really depends upon how far reaching around the tire your specific fenders area @@barbaraflanders9041

They make a protective cover adapter for bikes with fenders. And a tire cover for road bikes with expensive tires.

These things are weirdly affordable, even when you start doing another single add on. I only need a single right now, so it's ~~half cost of the Thule/Yak options, and even if I get an add on, that's still less money. AND they're freaking solid. They could prob add ~$150 to th cost and it would still be a great buy.

Love my 1up heavy duty double. I’m getting an additional tray for three bikes total for a summer trip to Brevard North Carolina and hit up some off road trails since the HD and SD versions are off road rated. What’s great about 1up is no plastic parts to deteriorate or break. And if a part on the 1up needs replacing? You can replace individual parts on the rack.
