Softride Bike Racks
Softride Bike Racks
While Softride Racks is best known for its patented tiltdown bike racks, it has expanded its product line with a wheel mount bike rack, cargo rack, and even a ski rack. The Softride ski rack attaches to most of Softride's bike racks to bring you a versatile two-in-one rack that can be used year round. All Softride Racks are hitch mounted for easy, ground level access to your gear.
Softride's original Dura and Element bike racks utilize a unique parallelogram design that keeps your bikes parallel to the ground even when the rack is tilted away from the vehicle and fully loaded. Why is this so important? Click here for more information.

Softride Racks Company HistoryIvor Allsop and his family have sought to make everyday tasks easier. Like all of our products, Softride Access Racks developed out of necessity. Ivors brainchild arose with the realization that his five-foot wife, Betty, would never be able to lift her bike atop the family Suburban. Like he had been doing for nearly 25-years, Ivor sought to make this burdensome process easier by creating a hitch mounted bike rack.
In one afternoon Ivor and his two sons, Jim and Mike, sat down and brainstormed what was the first hitch-mounted bike rack. The men quickly went to work patenting their ingenious parallelogram design that allows individuals to lower their rack parallel to the ground. The parallelogram functionality is unsurpassed because it does not dump bikes onto the ground when the user lowers the rack. This allows the user to easily access the rear of their vehicle without having to remove their bikes from the rack.
Seventeen years later, the Allsop family & the Softride team have maintained the same primary focus of solving consumer problems. Maintaining their patented paralellogram advantage, Softride Rack continues to maintain the features and aesthetics of their bike racks. They have also expanded their line to include a hitch cargo rack and a hitch ski rack attachment that mounts to most Softride hitch bike racks.
