NSR6 Gradus Maximus

Introducing the new NSR6 Gradus Maximus, fully redone for 2026 and packed with new features from top to bottom. Featuring our proven 3-Axis Cradle Design making it even easier to load for all mountain bike styles, including modern DH and E-bikes. A simpler, solid design which doesn’t put stress on your fork internals or cause unwanted suspension play. Our new Voile Fast Strap system secures your rear wheels in the blink of an eye without any guess work. Finished with the stylish Double Black powder coating to turn heads on any rig. And lastly, our new Pedal-Actuated Base steals the show; adjusting the angle and layback of your rack- it’s almost too easy. All this while still being the most adjustable and compact vertical rack on the market offering height, setback, tilt angle and now 2 U-bar wheelbase settings to work with the many combinations of vehicles and bikes. When not out on the trail, it conveniently folds in half, for a clean look with full access to the rear of your vehicle and no need to worry about height restrictions.
