The AfterParty is our second generation swing away platform hitch rack. While updating and applying the base from the BackStage with the innovative platform from the GuideRail, the afterparty is the ideal rack for Vans, Trucks, or SUVs where access to the rear end of the vehicle is needed. By utilizing dual load arms, the rack completely eliminates frame or fork contact, it allows for asymmetric bike loading to avoid handlebar interference, and it creates a simple aesthetic that virtually blends in with most vehicles. Carrying bikes up to 60lbs per tray, tires up to 3” wide, and wheelbases up to 55” the AfterParty can handle just about anything including most E-bikes. Included is a 10mm square link chain to secure your bikes without stress.
Key Features
