All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

Love the 1up rack!

 

My two biggest obsessions right here. 2011 Taco, 2016 Pivot Mach 6.

 

While waiting on my new Taco I am scouring these forums for the best easiest way to mount my bikes. I have a hitch mount but I need to mount 2 more in the bed. I've noticed a few with a roll up bed cover and the rocky mounts attached to the front of the bed. What is the bed cover? and how easy is it to roll up/ re-cover? If i could have a bed cover most of the time and still be able to front mount the bikes that would be ideal. thanks!

 

Tonno-pro lo-roll is pretty cost effective https://www.tonnopro.com/cms/loroll

 

Looks like a pretty good system, but it doesn't show they offer 16+ for the tacoma.... Unless I'm just missing it.

 

Oh shoot! I didn't even look at the model list, I assumed they just had one for the '16-'17's by now. Maybe give them a call and see?

 

French Creek! Love those trails.

 

I bought it new in 2000 I think. Used the hell out of it as a mountain bike then it turned into my commuter while I was living down town Toronto. I've put all new bearings in it and it can use some new tires but still going strong.

 

Installed the Rocky Mounts Loball Track today and took the bike to the trails. This thing is awesome. My bike is a 19.5" so it has to go it a bit diagonally, but it is super sturdy. Works well with a tonneau cover so when I have to load camping equipment and a cooler, I'll have room.

 

marsh creek... but ive been there, too.

 

look at my latest post in this thread, it might help

 

hey, do you guys use anything to tie down or secure your rear tire when using cleats? I've seen it both ways.

 

how many bikes do you think you can fit horizontal across the bed? 2 or 3

 

Yeah that is the system I run and it works great. The roll up cover I use with my Rockymounts is the Truxedo TruXport roll up tonneau cover. Very easy to roll up and down. Looks and fits great. And best of all the cost is usually under $300 and allows you the full use of your bed.

 

Ibis Mojo 3, Le Taco and some Puerto Rico trails.

 

nope, I have rocky mounts and don't tie down the back wheel. rides fine with just the mounts.

 

cool, thanks! I just tried a quick drive and it seemed ok. appreciate the help.

 

Nope. Don't tie down my back tire and it rides just fine and stays very stable.

 

Awesome thanks! I think I saw your pic and that's what got me thinking a few days ago! I'll look into that truxedo
