Now that I have my Gus frame in-hand, I can confirm that the wheelbase of the Medium (54cm) frame is 50". Kuat's specs for my rack, the NV 2.0, says it will carry bikes with wheelbases up to 50" with the front wheel cradles in the "down" position... so fingers crossed that spec is correct in

I confirmed yesterday that a GBW will fit just fine in a 1-Up rack. The wheelbase is about 53 inches on Gus. The length of the rail on 1-Up is 54" which is what 1-Up states as max wheelbase. The Equip-D says it can take a 56" wheelbase. On Tuesday, June 21, 2022 at 12:32:50 AM UTC-4 JAS

Joe, Oh, that hurts! I'm so sorry about your rack. Thank you for the advice. Fortunately, I don't have to worry about L.A., but it's good to be aware a determined thief can get through the lock. Joyce On Monday, June 20, 2022 at 12:34:48 PM UTC-7 jmlmu...@gmail.com wrote: > I had a 1up

I had a 1up rack but it got stolen! The thieves must have had the special allen key. It was locked with the key lock that 1up sells but they got through that no problem. Don’t leave your 1up racks on your car in Los Angeles! It would have fit my new Susie no problem. Joe > On Jun 20, 2022,

I have a 1UP rack and my bikes fit fine. Clem size 52 cm with a 117cm wheelbase (tires are 650b x 48) Platypus size 55 cm with a 122 cm wheelbase (tires are 700x42) I did my best to measure the wheelbase of each bike, but they might be slightly off by a cm or so. --Joyce On Monday,
