    Yes the cover retracts and accordion folds at the back of the bed. Once you have the cover retracted you can unclip the gas struts from it and completely remove the cover if you need to use the 6” or so at the back of the bed where they fold up.IMG_5082.jpg

    Here's a pic of my Tonneau opened 1/3 of the way. You can see the brackets that mount to the OEM rails as well as the clamps. I'm happy with it so far. It does what it needs to do and allows me to use my factory rail as intended.

    I purposely left the clamp sticking up on top so you could see what it looks like better. It folds flat against the tonneau so you can fold the tonneau up.

    I was all onboard with the bak flip until I saw the installation video. Ditto with the lomax stance. I wanted full bed access but I wasn't interested in repositioning the bed rails or gluing prop anchors to the paint on top of my cab.

    Undercover Flex solved all 3 issues. . . :hattip:
