EL EE GEE EE EN DEE! Tippie is so Boo Radly! Night footage at the end was MINT!

Merry Xmas from John! Congratulations on your win and thank you for sharing the wealth! Cheers!

People like Dane and a lot of us live for the moment. Be it ridiculous gaps, really good sushi or boosting balconies into pools. Sometimes we overshoot the gap, the fish ain't fresh or we miss the pool. The gods can be fickle. Healing vibes to Dane.

Flatland meets vert! Confidence and style. Very nice.

SOOO STOKED! Aggasiz hammering out of that chute like a raped ape! Semenuks front flip bar spin! Don't even get me started on train gaps.... Getting all jurassic on our asses!

Staggering. Stubs heli shot is the essence of the trade. "Fern Gully" looking gap is sick! Macro shots are gallery worthy. The flow of each photo block is bang on. Amazing work Techi! CANNOT wait for the film gents.

Anyone else see the irony of a helmet named "The Veggie"?

The fade from B/W to color and back was dope. The Loamy Homies killing it as usual. Dying to sink our teeth into the full feature!

Did not factor the cold weather aspect as far as buckle style fasteners would be concerned, brule. In the end as you mentioned, rear tire security is an issue all racks face. Looking at it from the view that, regardless it will be a maintenance point on any rack, I suppose velcro is as good an option as any due to relative cheapness to replace when the inevitable happens! We are in the market for a new setup soon and will be eagerly anticipating the PB field test results!

I think this rack looks fantastic. (insert pron quip here!) The only small thing that I would be leery about is the velcro rear tire fastener. With constant wet and mud during re mounting methinks it would be prone failure after time. Would hate to see a rear tire break loose and pound the rear of your vehicle or *gasp* the bike pop off on a FSR. However, having only the demo video to go by maybe this is not an issue or has been considered? I personally don't find velcro to be a stable or reliable fastening system on anything other than kids shoes. Maybe a snowboard binding ratchet style clamp or "bungee" system would add peace of mind, or are these potential patent conflicts? Other than that, looks to be a new leader in vertical hitch mount design. Nice work Arbutus Racks.
