Fork Up For 15mm Thru Axle

Mountain bikes have a problem with roof racks. Of late, it's been complicated a bit more by the 15QR thru axle system innovated by Shimano in conjunction with Fox. Until now, there hasn't been an adaptor that allowed one to mount their bike with a 15QR fork on their roof rack. Thankfully, that is the case no longer.

The Hurricane Components Fork Up for 15mm Thru Axle works with all fork-mount racks, including Rocky Mounts, Thule, and Yakima. The tube fits a 15QR axle and is 100mm wide to work with Fox and Marzocchi forks using the 15QR system. Just open up the rack's fork mount quick release, insert the fork up and tighten the rack's skewer. Safety tabs will help keep the mount in place when the QR is tight. The position of the Fork Up can be changed to better fit the bike in question onto the rack. And, when you don’t need the Fork Up, just open up the rack's quick release to stow inside the car or with the bike.
