Live to Ride – Who doesn’t live to ride?
Most motorcycle riders want some adventure with the freedom to explore destinations that are off the beaten track.
That is just how most of us we feel about riding our bikes.
My problem was that in a country the size of Australia, exploring further afield meant long highway miles and who wants to wear out new knobby tires doing that?
The need to transport my motorcycle without having to tow a trailer was what started the idea of manufacturing my own design of motorcycle hitch carrier that was super tough and solved all the problems I had with the racks and carriers that were on the market when I started.
A family fabrication and engineering background led to my first forays into making hitch mounted racks in the early 2010s.
The first branded motorcycle carrier I made that was for sale was the Rack N Roll MX Carrier in 2013, and it sold out quickly.
Eventually it became the go-to brand for motocross riders down under and sometime shortly after I gave up my day job, leased a factory and started making lots of super tough motorcycle carriers.
Since then we have successfully exported our carriers to many countries in Europe as well as the UAE, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, Canada, Tanzania and Poland to name a few.
In 2018, we expanded into the USA with our Rack N Ride® branded products and have been growing our community of loyal customers ever since.
We changed the brand name in the USA to Rack N Roll because Rack N Roll was taken at that time.
“An Investment not an Expense” was genuine feedback we received from a customer in the USA.
The message resonated with us as that is what we already believed to be true about high quality motorcycle and motorcycle accessory brands.
A quality product really is an investment of sorts because it provides peace of mind and trouble free use for years to come.
Instead of breaking in the first few months or years it can often be sold second hand if it is no longer needed.
A cheap product is not an investment it is an expense, that may or may not do the job required, has a limited lifespan and will probably end up in landfill when no longer needed.
We use high quality manufacturing techniques and are constantly sourcing and experimenting with the latest, lightest and strongest materials we can lay our hands on.
Our ethos is to “build it tough” because breakages some times cost more than just money,
Our motorcycle carriers are made to last and use only high quality materials and fabrication methods in order to produce heavy duty products that can stand up to tough conditions and treatment and keep coming back for more.
