Bike fork clamps

[fatcyclist]

I recently changed vehicles from a hatchback to a bakkie, and need to find some of those clamp things you can secure your forks in. Someone is making me a bracket to mount the bikes easier on the back, but where do we find those clamps? Its the units that almost look like a front hub with skewer.

I think Hold Fast makes them. I'm sure it's just the normal roof carrier type you can find at any bike shop.

fatty, hoekom het jy my nie vertel.

 

 

 

Ek het dit op my bakkie gesit (ons ry dieselde)

 

 

 

Jy kry dit by Brights an kos R169 een.

 

 

 

Moet dit nie agter jou "cab" sit, jou MTB sal pas maar jou road bike se handles druk teen die kap vas.

 

 

 

As ju dit after op die flap sit, help dit 2 doelig. Jy maak mos die vurk daarop vas, maak die flap oop en die bike skuif buite toe,

 

 

 

Ek neem paar pics vanaad dan check jy dit uit voor jy dit monteer.

They are freely available but seemed to be more expensive than I thought they'd be.  Got the best deal at Cajees in the end.

Don't mount bikes sideways if you use them! I've seen a few forks snap because of it, and the warranties don't get honoured.

What I did as well is to "pop rubber" a "U" thingy on the round part were the wheel runs. I use a tjoop through that "eye-lit" (think thats what you call), have the back wheel against it and absolute no movement of the frame. Its actually pulling it down onto the cab.
