"1UP USA was the only bike rack brand we saw at the show offering an adapter to make their current rack compatible with 32" wheels. They slide onto the top of the wheel hoops, and appear to lock in place with quick-release pins."
"Hollywood Racks, the answer was one that we're seeing from a few different companies - any of their platform racks that clamp onto the frame instead of the wheels should be compatible. For Hollywood, that means the 'Rider' Series with the RV Rider, Sport Rider, and Trail Rider being 32" wheel compatible for wheelbases up to 60" long."
"Kuat says all of their Piston series are compatible without any adapters (as shown with the new Salsa Fargo 32"). That includes the Piston SR, Piston Pro, and Piston Pro X."
"At RockyMounts, we were surprised to hear that all of their racks with the exception of the Brass Knuckles, are 32" wheel compatible with existing tires."
The introduction of 32" wheels has raised questions about bike transportation compatibility. Many hitch bike racks are already capable of carrying these larger wheels, particularly with the current tire size of 32 x 2.4". Brands like 1UP USA offer adapters, while Hollywood Racks and Kuat confirm compatibility with their existing models. RockyMounts states that most of their racks support 32" wheels, and Saris lists their CycleOn as compatible. Thule has also prepared for this change, indicating a trend towards accommodating larger wheel sizes in bike transportation.
