Ultra-lightweight aluminum platform rack at just 32 pounds
Last reviewed: March 2026
At a glance
Why this product
At 32 lbs this is one of the lightest premium two-bike racks on the market. Aluminum construction, foot-operated tilt, and 80 lb total capacity cover most standard bike setups. The 40 lb per-bike limit rules out e-bikes, which is the main trade-off for the weight savings. Start here if you want a rack light enough to install and remove by yourself regularly — I recommend this to customers who do not leave their rack on full-time.
