Can this be used with other racks

No, doesn't work with other racks ... and unfortunate ... because it is a great product!

The Load Assist will not work with other brands. (At least not well) The top has a piece that hitches into the Malone J racks. It will work with several styles of Malone J racks, not just the ones that fold down.

Short answer: NO. The loaders need to 'hook' onto the racks and AND 'ramps' at the top of the loaders should work with 'ramps' on the rack. Although there's probably a way to hack and fabricate a solution with other racks, it hardly seems worth the effort.

I don't see how as the Malone Rack has a specific slot and size to accept the tab from the loader

After one attempt to load only our first kayak, we did not feel it would serve our needs and returned the Loaders. I do not if they could be used with other racks.

I don't think so. Malone racks come with a slot that accepts the hook on load assist.

it may depend of which model. I saw most of the models. I truly doubt it. This rack relies on traditional rear triangle geometry to try to make it work. Perhaps the best thing to do, if you want to risk it is to try to purchase it via a store where you are able to try and return if it does not work. Don't risk ordering it without return privileges.

Yes. Although with the bikes in the rack it may be hard to reach the footswitch that allows that.

It depends on the shape of your racks, if they are round yes if not you will need an universal adapter

Hi....and I have no clue as I have never done that. This rack is very well made and I have had no problems with it. Sorry I couldn't help.

Cody, I would definitely say yes. The rack is very sturdy but it's light as well. Excellent product. We're quite satisfied.

I don't think it would but I returned mine since it would not fit my rack - bad hardware.

You would have to have some sort of hanger. Loop something through the screw holes to hang from, or find a small bracket to screw the rack to.

I doubt it and I would purchase one from Thule if that is the brand of rack you have. It is threaded into the Saris racks..

No, it's not big enough for two racks. Take a look at the "Ribolator", it's a rotating rack for ribs that attaches to the rotisserie.

I use these as a spare saddlebag that i mount above my hard case saddlebags. I do not think any kind of rack would be needed as long as the bags are not resting against your exhaust. There are tons of straps included to mount them to about any type of bike.

I don't think so. A rack would work better and would be a lot less expensive.

if your rack rails look like those it should be no problem.They are pretty universal, but I'm just guessing.

Yes you can, you can only not insert the rack and youll have an open space.

It will mount fine with the front rack. For the rear rack, the bars are too short and it would clamp onto the plastic area with the small triangle on the bottom. It is doable with a longer bolt and secure if you put longer bolts in the back.

Not on your existing rack. It mounts onto a special rack that it's provided with the seat.

Yes. I think all the racks are the same. The customer service was great too!
