The Pitchfork Low Profile Bike Tray from RockyMounts

    The new Pitchfork fork mounted roof top bike carrier from Rocky Mounts brings a whole new meaning to the phrase "low profile". Although the Pitchfork is only about an inch and a half tall, its tubular aluminum tray is 40% stronger and 2 inches longer (45") than previous tray designs, giving you more tray with less wind noise. The long-throw quick release skewer and rear tire ratcheting strap will hold your bike like a champ, whether you've got a road bike or a mountain bike with fat tires (up to 2.7 inches).

RockyMounts Lariat SL and SLX Bike Trays for Mountain Bikes and Road Bikes

For additional anti-theft security, you can add a Rocky Mounts Lock Core to the skewer.     The Lariat is available in two sizes. The Lariat SL has a 43" long aluminum tray and is designed to hold road bikes and mountain bikes with tires up to 2.3" wide. The larger Lariat SLX has a 45" long aluminum tray designed to hold mountain bikes with tires up to 3" wide.  The Lariat SL is compatible with some disc brakes, the SLX is not. So if you need the wide tray, or your disc brakes refuse to "play nice" with the slimmer SL tray, grab the Rocky Mo...
