Our top - notch HighSpeed fork mount is a game - changer. It's sleek, strong, and super versatile. This rack can effortlessly transport road, mountain, and fat - tyre bikes up to 5' wide. It fits both quick release (9 mm) and thru axle bikes (12 mm, 15 mm, 20 mm). The brand - new TorqueRight™ knob makes securing your bike a breeze, providing a precise and firm hold. Its stylish, low - profile tray is designed to give you maximum hatch clearance and can handle wide tyres. The universal mounting hardware is tool - free and fits most roof racks, though it's not for square bars over 38mm deep. You can easily integrate it with T - Slot crossbars using a SmarT - Slot Kit 1. For added security, add SKS Locks to the TailWhip™ cable, crossbar attachment, and even the TorqueRight™ knob (SKS sold separately). Weighing 4.35 kg, with dimensions of L 138.4 cm x W 22.9 cm x H 12.1 cm, it can carry one bike with a max weight of 18.1 kg. Installation is a 5 - minute, tool - free job, but you'll need a base rack system.
Using this Yakima HighSpeed bike rack is easy. First, make sure you have a base rack system. Then, use the tool - free universal mounting hardware to attach the rack to your roof rack (note that it won't work with square bars deeper than 38mm). Next, place your bike on the tray. Whether it's a road, mountain, or fat - tyre bike up to 5' wide, and whether it has a quick release or thru axle, the rack can handle it. Use the TorqueRight™ knob to secure the bike firmly. If you want to enhance security, you can add SKS Locks to the TailWhip™ cable, crossbar attachment, and the TorqueRight™ knob (you'll need to buy the SKS locks separately). When you're done using the rack, it's a good idea to clean it regularly. Just use a mild soap and water to wipe it down. Check the mounting hardware and the TorqueRight™ knob periodically to make sure they're tight and in good condition. If you want to use it with T - Slot crossbars, get a SmarT - Slot Kit 1 to convert it easily.
