I turned a 1up bike rack into a ski rack for the back. I copied the approach from here.
My differences are:
We also have the Kuat Pivot v2. My happiest surprise is that we can load skis when in the vertical position. I thought we'd have to drop the rack to the horizontal position to load them. The first set of skis holds in against the spare tire well enough, so I can stack a second pair.
Here are pictures after our first day skiing. The do get covered in road spray, so I need to get a small tarp.
My differences are:
- I have a two-bike rack, so I left one rack in. That works perfect becase I can carry my fatbike in the winter.
- I used 1515 instead of 4040 extrusions (they're about the same).
- I added extra lights that connect to the hitch plug (this plus this). The lights don't fit in the bracket very well, so I added zip ties.
