80 lb per Bike

The RSD6 is built for large families, group riders, and anyone who needs more than five positions — or more than two OTB handlebar cradle slots. If you've got 2 adults and 3–4 kids, or a regular riding crew of 5–6, the RSD6 gives you the capacity and the configurability to carry everyone's bike regardless of size or style.
It's also the practical choice for families running a mix of e-bikes and regular bikes. The per-position weight rating means your heavier bikes don't eat into capacity for the lighter ones — and the third OTB slot means you're not forced into wheel cradles for bikes that load better over the bars.

Product Description

Six bikes. Maximum cradle flexibility. The RSD6 carries one more bike than the RSD5 for $75 more — and it unlocks a third OTB handlebar cradle position, giving you the most handlebar cradle capacity of any standard-size rack in the RSD lineup.

Every position is rated to 80 lbs individually, with a 250 lb total capacity (350 lbs with stabilizer straps and anchors). The RSD6 accepts up to three OTB handlebar cradles alongside Standard and XL wheel cradles — so a family with three kids on smaller bikes and three adults on full-size rigs can configure one rack that carries everyone.

Symmetric dual-crossbar layout. Powder-coated steel. Foot-activated tilt latch. Lifetime warranty. Built and shipped from Utah.

FAQ
Can I mix different cradle types on the same rack?

Yes — that's the whole idea. You can combine Standard Wheel, XL Wheel, and OTB Handlebar cradles in any configuration that fits your rack. Going on a trip with all adult bikes? All Standard cradles. Weekend with the kids? Add some Handlebar cradles. You configure it when you order, and you can swap cradles later in about 10 minutes.

What is the OTB Handlebar Cradle?

The OTB holds your bike by the handlebars instead of the wheels — two padded arms cradle the bar and the bike hangs vertically. Tire size doesn't matter, so it's the go-to for fat bikes over 5" wide, bikes with fenders, cargo bikes, kids' bikes, or anything that doesn't fit a standard wheel cradle. The configurator shows you exactly which positions support OTB cradles.

Can the rack handle e-bikes?

Absolutely. At 80 lbs per bike — and tested well beyond that — e-bikes are well within the RSD's capability. If your e-bike has wider tires, just spec an XL Wheel Cradle for that position.

What bikes fit in the XL Wheel Cradle?

The XL Wheel Cradle accommodates tires up to 26" × 5.0" or 27.5" × 4.5". That covers fat bikes, most plus-size tires, and heavy-duty e-bike tires. If your tire is wider than what the XL fits, the OTB Handlebar Cradle is your best option — it fits virtually any bike regardless of tire width.

Does the rack clear a spare tire on my Jeep or Bronco?

Yes. The RSD system is designed with rear-mounted spare tire clearance built in. No extra adapter or extension needed.

Does it include a hitch lock or bike lock?

Every rack includes a stabilizer clamp. The threaded locking hitch pin (to lock your rack to your car) and cable lock set to lock your bikes to your rack) are available as optional accessories.
