If you’re a serious cyclist, you probably know 1UP USA for their all-metal bike racks that are all made in America. Now, the company is jumping into a whole new game: motorcycle hauling. They just officially dropped their first-ever Moto Rack at the Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, Arizona, an event that wrapped up on May 19.This is a big move for 1UP, and they’re bringing their bike rack know-how – think top quality, crazy durability, and smart design – over to the motorcycle side.

The new 1UP Moto Rack is all high-grade aluminum and steel (no plastic here) and built tough enough for serious off-roading, holding up to 500 pounds. Engineers specifically rated this capacity for extreme off-road use.The rack holds bikes by their tires or pegs, a method designed to avoid scratching up fancy components, and it fits a wide range of tire sizes, from 18 to 30 inches in diameter and up to seven inches wide.

For a super solid setup, it features 1UP’s own ratchet strap system, a strong locking mechanism, and its new wedge-style anti-wobble piece to keep the rack tight in your vehicle’s hitch, whether it’s a two-inch or 2.5-inch receiver.

A neat touch is the integrated two-inch accessory receiver on the Moto Rack itself, allowing users to attach a standard 1UP bike rack.

This is perfect for adventurers who want to bring both their Moto and pedal bikes along. Standard features also include an integrated loading ramp for easy solo use and a wheel chock.Kurt Barclay, 1UP USA’s Marketing Director, said customers have been asking for a moto rack for ages. He emphasized they didn’t want to build just “another motorcycle rack—we set out to redefine the category.”

Their aim, he added, was to deliver “premium features and uncompromising build quality” tough enough for real-world hauling challenges and to give users “rock-solid confidence.”Now that it’s officially out, the 1UP Moto Rack gives motorcyclists a new American-made choice if they’re looking for a super tough, cleverly designed hitch rack.

It looks like 1UP USA is serious about bringing their reputation for no-compromise quality to folks who haul their adventures on two motorized wheels.
