We can make your bike tires fit any rack! 1UP USA’s Fat Tire Spacer Kit will do just that! Once installed, the Fat Tire Spacer Kit increases clearance to 5 inches and is compatible with all bikes, from fat tires to plus tires, mountain tires, gravel tires, and even road tires.

The kit includes spacers for a glide bar, spacers for bent arms, a new spool, and hardware to install it. Our Quik Rack and Heavy Duty models come standard with clearance for up to 3" tires. They'll clear everything from small road to 3" tires. We offer a Wheel Saver for carbon road wheels that increases surface area and reduces pressure on the carbon rim. Our Equip'D rack model comes standard with clearance to 4.5" tires, while the new Super Duty is compatible with 5" tires out of the box.
