The Yakima HighSpeed Rooftop Fork Mount Bike Rack is engineered for cyclists seeking a sturdy, adaptable rooftop solution to carry their bike securely and conveniently. This fork-mounted rack eliminates frame contact, reducing potential damage and making it suitable for a variety of bike frames, including those with unconventional geometries.
Compatibility is a key strength of this rack. It accommodates quick release front axles (9mm) and thru-axles in multiple sizes (12mm, 15mm, 20mm) including fat bikes with QR axles with the Fat Bike QR Locking Skewer (sold separately). Bikes with wheelbases up to 50" and tires as wide as 5" can be transported safely. The rack mounts easily to most factory and aftermarket crossbars, with the optional SmarT-Slot Kit 1, making it compatible with T-slot crossbars as well.
Ease of use is built into the design with a clamp system that securely grasps the axle and a built-in TailWhip cable lock for added security during transit. The rack is road tested to handle bikes up to 40 lbs for paved travel and rated for lighter off-road use at 24 lbs. Its low profile and compact dimensions simplify loading and reduce wind resistance.
