csmceuen Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) So I recently picked up a partly broken 1UP rack from a friend who was in a car accident. The bike rack was pretty banged up, but with some finagling I was able to piece together a near complete 1 bike rack from the 2 bike rack I received. I was hoping that if someone else had an old broken rack laying around or recently got in an accident with one (hope you are ok) that I could take it off your hands in hopes of scavenging it for parts rather than it winding up in the trash. I would rather bring an old rack back to life than just buy a new one or buy new parts. Thanks in advance!

RedRider3141 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I don't have any spares but is there any chance, you'll end up with an extra 2" Receiver? Either the whole assembly below or just the black portion (color doesn't matter) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I would have thought of doing this a few months back since I had another friend who had his replaced after a wreck. Its nice how replaceable all the parts in these racks are. As well as interchangeable. Great design. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I've worked with CAD for 13 years. Give me any part of that rack and I can measure/ CAD it up for you in a jiffy (for personal reasons only of course). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hoping someone would have it laying around and I could recycle it. I have the parts I need in the cart, but thought it was worth a shot since alot of people wont go through the effort of repairing and I only need a few smaller parts of larger pieces they sell.

Have you tried contacting them. If you tell them it was damaged in a crash and you need several parts they might be willing to make a custom order.
