Benefits of a Recumbent Trike Rear Rack

Customize Your Cargo Setup

Baskets

Pick from a variety of styles, sizes, and materials. Wire baskets are perfect for quick trips to the store, while sturdy plastic ones handle heavier loads like groceries or camping gear.

Panniers

If adventure is your thing, consider panniers. These bags attach to the rack's sides, providing space for clothes, tools, and more. Waterproof panniers are ideal for all-weather riding.

Bags and Pouches

Need a spot for smaller items? Bags and pouches easily attach to the rack, keeping your phone, wallet, or snacks within reach.

DIY Options

Get creative. Milk crates, plastic bins, or even old backpacks can be secured to your rack with a little ingenuity.

No matter what you need to carry, the Utah Trikes rack has a cargo setup that works for you.

Keep Your Rack Rolling

Your Utah Trikes rack is built tough, but a little care goes a long way. Here's how to keep it in great shape for years of riding:

Clean It Up

After your rides, especially on dusty or muddy trails, wipe down your rack with a damp cloth. This keeps dirt and grime from building up and causing rust.

Check It Out

Before each ride, give your rack a quick look. Check for loose bolts, cracks, or any other damage. Use a wrench to tighten any loose bolts. If you find anything concerning, contact Utah Trikes for help.

Balance Your Load

Spread your cargo evenly on the rack. Too much weight on one side affects your trike's balance and handling. Use bungee cords or straps to keep your gear secure and prevent it from shifting.

Know Your Limits

Remember, your rack has a weight limit. Check the specs to see how much weight it can safely carry, and don't overload it
