Our SUP Bar sets are larger versions of the cradles on our standard bicycle and surfboard moped racks!
Cradle interior width increases from 3.8" to a full 6" to handle thicker SUP boards including inflatable SUPs.
May also be useful for carrying two lighter boards or other thicker objects. See the instruction sheet for a detailed comparison of dimensions.

Using our Racks with SUPs
Our longboard racks are well suited for use with SUPs with the following limitations:
- We recommend the racks for boards up to about 25 lbs.
- Heavier boards are hard to ride with off the side of the bike and will exceed the load capacity of the bars.
- SUPs are wide and you will need clearance under your handlebar. For the most part, this means you can only carry a SUP with a beach cruiser with a high rise set of cruiser bars.
- The standard bar sets have just under 4 inches of clearance for your board. Many SUPs are in the 4-5 inch width range.
- The good news is that it is relatively easy to bend the lower U shaped portion of the bars open to fit wider SUPs If you have an inflatable SUP, it is probably more like 6 inches thick.
- We offer a set of Replacement Lower Bars for use with Inflatable SUPs
