The Yakima SprocketRocket

Yakima's SprocketRocket Fork Mount Bike Carrier
    The Yakima 2090 Sprocket Rocket Bicycle Carrier for Car Roof Racks is Yakima’s latest design in fork mount bike racks, and they've spared no expense on style and security. Like the HighRoller, this model has a tough, double wall wheel tray that's as easy on the eyes as it is to operate. The rear wheel strap assembly slides smoothly on the tray for quick, one-hand adjustment to your bike's wheelbase. The head unit is rugged, powder coated steel, and the stainless steel skewer employs an integrated tensioning knob you can adjust with one hand. The skewer tension adjustment knob is normally hidden beneath a flip-up lockable steel cover, so the addition of one SKS Lock Core (sold seperately) gives you the best security available in a fork mount bike carrier. The SprocketRocket accommodates fat or skinny tires, as well as most disc brake types.
    Installation is simple. The head unit hinges open and closes around your roof rack's crossbar, and is tightened in place when you push down the red switch on top of the head. The skewer slides through both halves of the head unit, for complete security when your skewer is locked. For the rear, a Yakima SnapAround wraps around the crossbar and is connected to the tray with a bolt and wingnut. The SprocketRocket is compatible with Yakima round bars and Thule square bars, and all mounting hardware is included. For even more info, you can download the complete SprocketRocket instructions, or watch the following demonstration of the Yakima Sprocket Rocket.
