molle or tracks on the sides would be nice. Has anyone seen any?

The upcoming Molle panels from BuiltRight will have more versatility.

molle panels are versatile indeed

There's not many chock choices that I found as the L track sits so high.

I found this one. Seems like the top lip is angled down and might clear the tonneau cover

I'm about to do this as well. I checked for 48" standard L Track, there are 10 mounting points, each are 5inch apart. The bed mount points are 325mm and 490mm away from each other, which is not really a multiply of 5inch? I counted the holes in your picture and there are more than 10 points? Did you have to drill the L track too?

Yes, you'll need to drill holes in the L track. The 5" spacing is not compatible with the Rivian holes except for one hole at the end of the 48" L track. I also had to countersink the newly drilled holes.

Ok and dtg for arrival of said Molle panels?

The owner has a prototype on his truck and is just gauging demand to enter production. Should have news soon, but I'd guess they are ready for purchase within the next month or two.

Here is my setup. Went with a CCR hybrid system cut down to 48. Drilled to match stock upper cab mounts, using M6 1x30 with flat washer and a little loctite. The moto mount is centered but may slide it over a little to offset for more room loading and unloading. Haven’t loaded a moto yet but using my road bike wheel with a 27.7 outer diameter which is close to a 90/90 21 it clears the tonneau lip fine.

Installed a DIY bedrail using some T-slot extrusion to make a fork mount bike rack. It fits my XL frame 29er MTB if I angle it a bit, with the tail gate closed even. Used a simple fork mount. Just need to come up with a clever way to secure the front wheel in transit so I don't have to store it in the cab. I used the existing lower bed fasteners, so it's fully reversible if I ever want to take it out, but low profile enough to always leave in the bed. I like that it keeps my bike low in the bed so I can pull into the garage and keeps the bike mostly out of the air stream while driving.

Bonus, the extrusion gives me a flexible option to add additional tie downs or other mounts as needed.

Thanks for posting this, I wouldn't have known about the CCR System otherwise but after seeing your setup I ordered and installed one as well. I'm very happy with it, it's nicely made, installed easily enough and looks so good that people who see it assume that it's a factory option with the truck.

I will be doing something like this for my mtb. However, I will be flipping it around, so that the fork mount can be easily accessed from the tailgate area.

Is that a Stepramp? All of those upper bolts are just into the panel holding the tonneau cover correct? Nothing structural?

Did the same this weekend and added a 1/4 inch rubber gym mat to protect the bed

Yeah, it's a step ramp which is great, very highly recommended!

The rail is attached only to the panel holding the tonneau cover but I strap one side of each bike down to the built in tiedown in each corner of the bed and the other to the tiedown eye on the rail which is mostly a sheer force so I'm pretty confident in it, especially with the moto-gate that I'm using now at the back to provide support to keep the bikes from rolling backward.
