Congratulations on your purchase of the best Surfboard Rack on the planet! Moved By Bikes Dual Sport Racks feature our unique tool-free quick release on the bars, and the mounting hardware has been optimized to provide options for mounting to seatposts or frame tubes as well as some tubular cargo racks.
USE THIS PRODUCT SAFELY
Riding a bike is an inherently dangerous activity. Carrying surfboards further
increases your risk of injury and should be done with the greatest of care. Be
sure that you maintain your bicycle and check bolts on the racks as well, as
they may loosen up over time. Always ride under control, be alert, and follow
the rules of the road. The racks are not intended for aggressive riding of any
kind.
QUICK AND EASY MOUNTING TO YOUR BIKE
This document provides quick and easy installation instructions for some
typical applications. The hardware is highly adaptable and can be installed in
a number of ways. The 4 bolt clamps provide a sturdy clamping mechanism to
posts that are vertical or horizontal or somewhere in between. The optional
Moped Rack Clamps in the kit provide some extra options for putting one or
both mounts onto a tubular cargo rack.
When the bars are mounted close together, we recommend them for use with Shortboards
When they are spread apart, they can typically handle Long boards and even SUPs up to about 25 lbs with our SUP Lower Bar Set added
PRO TIP #1
Stainless bolts are prone to galling. To prevent this, use anti-seize
INSTALLING THE 4 BOLT CLAMPS
The kit comes preconfigured with two 4 bolt clamp mount assemblies.
- Remove the 4 clamp bolts.
- We recommend applying anti-seize to all bolt threads.
- Reassemble around the frame.
- Tighten in the final orientation
DECK MOUNT OPTION
The Seatpost Mount can also be “deck mounted” to any flat surface with
holes or slots that match the hole pattern.
Note that the 4 bolt clamps can be reconfigured for horizontal bars. To do so, simply take it apart and reassemble it as shown below.
MOPED RACK CLAMP OPTION
The kit includes two sets of Medium Moped Rack Clamps. They fit frame tubing that is 12-19mm in diameter (0.5-0.751N). These are handy when you want to convert one or both of the mounts to go on a tubular cargo rack. To make the conversion, simply disassemble the Tube clamps from the Seatpost Mount block, and reassemble them into the Moped Rack Clamps.
- Check fit with a pair of calipers or by test fitting the hardware.
- Disassemble the hardware of the clamps
- We recommend applying anti-seize to all bolt threads
- Reassemble the clamps around the desired mounting location.
- Insert the mounted tube into the tube clamps.
- Set rotational alignment of the tube and tighten the clamp bolts to complete the installation.
ASSEMBLE THE BARS AND INSTALL THEM INTO THE MOUNTS
- The rack bars come in the box in two pieces. Assemble the U- shaped lower bar into the foam covered end of the L-shaped upper bar. There are 5 height settings that the pins can be aligned with. Most people default to the middle hole to start and adjust from there if one mount is higher than the other. To use the top two holes, you will need to remove some foam from the lower bar.
- Install the Rack bars into the mounted tubes by aligning the splines and sliding them into the mounts. Slide them in until the push buttons locks in the hole in the mounted tube. That’s all there is to it, you’re ready to ride.
LOADING YOUR BOARD
With the bars installed, you are ready to load up your board and head to the
beach! For E-Bike or other motorized applications we recommend using bungee
cords or straps to secure your board for the journey. (not included)
