If you own a Graber bicycle rack then chances are that you will require some foot pads to go with it. As with any other bicycle rack on the foot plates are used to prevent the bikes from rolling on the ground when you are not using them. It is very possible that the foot plates of your bike rack could become damaged over time, especially if you live in an area where there is high traffic or you get off your bike at the same time as someone else. These foot plates can also become worn out and can no longer hold the weight that your bike may put on them. This is especially true if you store your bike on your bike rack for long periods of time because if you have a flat tire you will need fast access to a shop to have your bike repaired or replaced. Graber bicycle racks offer several different foot pads that you can purchase to go with your rack. They offer leather pads that are very comfortable to wear while you are riding your bike. These are very easy to replace if you get tired of the style that they are wearing. The synthetic leathers that are offered come in several different styles and colors and you can choose one that you prefer. Another popular style is the polyurethane foam pads that are available and these are the most expensive of all the types of replacement Graber bike rack pads that you can purchase for your bike rack. If you have a Graber bike rack that has open tie down straps then you should make sure that you always purchase some new ones so that you do not fall off your bike. If you are going to use the open tie down straps, make sure that you buy some extra ones so that you can change the strap over if it becomes damaged. There are plenty of places that sell extra Graber bike racks so you should be able to find exactly what you need without having to spend too much money. These pads can also be very comfortable to wear and there are plenty of people who like to ride with a pad on their feet.
