Built for Adventure

For more than 25 years, Old Man Mountain has been designing premium bicycle racks and cargo solutions for cyclists who demand reliability in every situation. Whether you’re on a one-day ride, embarking on a multi-day bikepacking adventure, or riding around the world, Old Man Mountain products are engineered to carry your gear securely over any terrain.

Unlike many traditional racks, Old Man Mountain racks are designed to mount directly to the bicycle axle or frame, making them compatible with an enormous range of bicycles, including full-suspension mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, fat bikes, and many electric bikes.

Engineered Without Compromise

Every rack is built from high-quality materials and extensively tested in real-world conditions. The unique mounting system provides exceptional strength and stability, even when carrying heavy loads on rough trails.

Combined with innovative accessories such as Axle Packs, FLiP Cages, and rack bags, Old Man Mountain offers one of the most versatile cargo systems available. Riders can configure their bikes for anything from lightweight overnighters to fully loaded expeditions.

Whether your next ride is across town or across continents, Old Man Mountain provides dependable equipment that allows you to carry exactly what you need with confidence.

3 favorites, 2 racks and 1 bag

Are Old Man Mountain racks compatible with carbon bikes?

Yes. Old Man Mountain racks are mounted on the axle. So if you hit bumps on the road, the weight falls on to the axle, not the carbon frame.

Can I install an Old Man Mountain rack on a full-suspension mountain bike?

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of Old Man Mountain racks is their compatibility with many full-suspension mountain bikes. Their axle-mounted design allows the rack to remain independent of the bike’s suspension.

Which Old Man Mountain rack is right for me?

The best rack depends on your riding style and the gear you want to carry. Whether you need a lightweight setup for bikepacking or a high-capacity rack for touring, our product pages and customer support can help you choose the right model. The Divide, Elkhorn Impala Lowrider and Axle Pack each offer something, depending on your needs and the type of road trip you are planning to go on.
