We can't make the sun shine brighter or convince your friends to read a clock, but we can turn loading your bikes into a joyride! Say hello to Shifts&Grins—the rack that's so easy to use, it practically loads the bikes itself (almost).

This straightforward 2-bike rack is here to swap your swearing for smiling with three nifty features you won't find anywhere else.

Swear-Reducing Features

Reduces Swearing by 60%

Hole-in-One Hitch

Our built-in hitch alignment magically aligns the hitch pin holes on your rack and hitch. No no more shimmying, finger-checking, or whispered curses. Putting in the hitch pin is just like a hole-in-one. Every time.

Reduces Swearing by 10%

The Fun Button

Forgot your helmet, water bottle, or secret snack stash? No problem! Just give it a push, and the rack gracefully tilts away, giving you hassle-free access to your hatch or trunk

Reduces Swearing by 10%

No More Tripping - Just Flipping

But wait, there's more! The fun button allows you to flip the shank up so our rack lays flat for storage. No more tripping in the garage. In storage mode this rack lays flat against the floor or hangs flat on the wall.

Reduces Swearing by 15%

Double Dare

We know you can handle the chaos of taking 4 people biking - when you feel like it. And when you’re ready we have the 2-bike add for you (sold separately).
