My Review of Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount

REI

The world's best-selling fork mount just got a makeover—for road bikes, disc brakes or fat tires, the Peloton fork mount is up to the challenge.


Lock & load, why spend more

Gift: No

Pros: Easy to Install, Lightweight, Easy to Use, Durable, Stable

Best Uses: Mountain Bikes, Small Cars, Road Bikes

Describe Yourself: Avid Cyclist

Great product. After adjusting the front fork tension, its lock and load with a simple handle to close tight & lock your bike. The existing straps swap between road and mountain bike tire size making it easy to use the same rack for both my bikes. The more expensive models I've used on friends cars have you pay way to much for "ergonomic" or "aerodynamic" features which seem nice but certainly dont justify the extra cost. This rack has the basics and is a no brainer purchase because its (1) inexpensive, (2) holds your bike tight and (3) is very easy to use. Bottom line, dont buy 1 of the latest & greatest rack for yourself, buy 2 of these for the same price and pick up your friend for a group ride!
