Very easy install and sturdy
This product was a complete problem solver for me. I just upgraded to a through axle bike. This has spacers and configuration for all sizes and worked perfectly with my Yakima fork-mount rack.

Exactly what we needed...
We bought two of these to mount our bikes in the back of my wife's (extra short bed) truck. I mounted them to a cargo bar that clamps into the truck bed so that they would be mounted securely, but easy to remove when not in use.I chose this version that doesn't include the locks so that we could pick out our own locks and get two locks that are keyed the same.These fork mounts work really well. Our first outing with them involved a 430 mile(round trip) road trip with a little mild off-roading in the middle.Our bikes were always held securely and never once did we think we'd bounce them out of the mounts (even on the trails).It might take a little practice at getting the tightness of the skewer on the mount just right, even if you are a pro at taking your front wheels on and off, because the skewer on the mount has an offset on one side and seems to have a longer throw than a wheel skewer. The long throw is an advantage though, because once the skewer is open, it will open wide enough to completely release the forks. This makes it less likely that you'll have to make adjustments to the "nut" end of the skewer every time you mount and dismount your forks.Other users have mentioned that the skewer lever is hard to move to the open position once it's been closed, but I had no issues with mine.I think it's a skewer tightness issue and it could be that the skewer was clamped down too tightly when it was closed.As far as quality goes, I'm really happy with how well these things are made (and I'm really picky). They are very durable and appear to be made of materials that will endure prolonged outside abuse, although ours live primarily in the garage.I'd say that this fork mount is a really good and affordable way to mount a bicycle to the bed of your truck.

Make the cheapest bike rack ever!
Two of these, plus a few nuts and bolts, and a piece of wood, and you can make yourself a bike rack for way less than any car bike rack on the market today. Just bought two of these, a common pine board 10" wide, cut to the width of our truck bed, mount these to the board, then attach to the truck with a few bolts and voila...bike rack! What I love about these fork mounts is that it tucks the bikes below the top of the truck roof, so we keep the bikes out of the wind and elements. Also much better for the aerodynamics of the vehicle. If you own a truck, it's the cheapest and best way to make a bike rack.The item itself is very nicely thick aluminum. I've had no issues with the closure mechanism, and the ones we received had a short piece of webbing on the QR to help open it up. As far as other reviewers talking about the locking aspect being useless, it is true that one can theoretically unscrew the opposite side of the mount and remove the bike, but there is some kind of bushing or o-ring which makes that side more difficult to turn, even when free. Plus, when properly tightened, the tension makes the smooth nut very hard to turn. I guess if a thief had a pair of vice grips they could open it up, but I don't think the intent of this is to lock your bike up in the worst part of town and leave it overnight. If you are driving somewhere and need to make a pit stop, the lock is enough of a deterrent for those 5-minute scenarios. I think this is a great product, and makes the cheapest, best bike rack.

Great product and beefier than I originally thought
We have two bikes that we move around from time to time and we were laying them on their sides (on top of one another) in the back of the F-150. It was a little crazy to say the least when trying to remove them with peddles, spokes and gears sometimes intertwined. So I thought for a fork holder. I looked at several solutions and decided on this one for I have a truck box and didn't want to spend that much on solving this problem.Well when they showed up they were bigger and strong than I thought. No hardware was included, but that was fine with me, for I went out and bought some stainless 1/4" bolts and lock nuts for installation on the back of the truck box. I didn't want anything to rust and I believe most if not all of the components of this product are aluminum or some other type of alloy.They installed without any problem and worked great for two different types of bikes. It has an adjustment nut on the left side to adjust the compression on the lever when engaged. I got locks for them and I tried to pull one of the bikes out to see how strong it was. It didn't give at all.I am very pleased with the quality and construction and would recommend this to anyone who is tired of pulling two bikes apart in the bed of a pickup. Also the bikes traveled very well and didn't move at all over some tougher roads.

Solid construction, fit perfectly and arrived quickly when I needed it. The adapters allow for different hub size which was great.

Vi otras opciones, pero me justo que los insertos son roscados, menos posibilidad de que se pierdan.

Cool Bike Hitch Anchors
These hitch anchors worked great for a 7 bike trailer carrier I built for a 8’ x 4’ utility trailer. Our bikes stayed secured in the solid steel, secure clamps, and steel locks. The anchors keep our bikes from rubbing together and damaging each other while travelling. Looking forward to using our hitch anchor trailer again in the future.

Buen producto excepto la pieza para candado
La pieza metálica está muy bien construida es muy fuerte y fue fácil instalar. La pieza que trae para fijar el candado no sirve de nada porque quitando la tuerca del otro extremo se desmonta la horquilla, además estorba para poder abrir el sistema de liberación rápida. Venden otro modelo sencillo que no tiene el portacandado pero es un poco más alto y yo tenía el espacio justo para no desmontar el sillín, así que corté esa parte, fácilmente porque es de aluminio, y asunto solucionado.Ya instalado quedó perfecto, tiene muy buen agarre y las bicicletas no se mueven en absoluto. Quedé muy satisfecha con el producto, lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Producto de calidad
Es un producto de calidad. Lo compré para poder meter mi bicicleta de carretera (con eje pasante) en mi coche. Se puede atornillar en una pequeña tabla de madera con sujeción a los anclajes del coche y así poder transportarla en el interior, sin necesidad de desembolsar dinero en costosos portabicicletas de techo o de maletero. Viene con adaptadores para diferentes medidas de ejes pasantes y también para la baca del coche. Cumple perfectamente su función y parece bastante fiable.
