    I wanted an inexpensive way to mount my road bike and I liked the RockyMount Loball... just thought their mounting hardware kit is ridiculously priced at $20, so for $5 at Ace Hardware I accomplished the same result :thumbsup: I also wanted short term and inexpensive as I’ll put a topper on sometime soon hopefully, at which point I’ll move the mount to a board I can lay in the bed. But this should work great for now to haul the bike around with. 9E73973E-120F-4D3C-9ECD-71E02CBDC47C.jpg

    Got a new bike a few weeks ago. Finally had time to take it on a group ride. About to do the same as ^^, but finding a thru-axle mount that works with the front fork is tough, about to hack at one. Still using the Jeep rack.

    I've not ridden ski bowl for ~20 years, looking forward to moving back to the PNW and riding there again.

    it's a great place to ride when I don't feel like pedaling uphill and want to ride my DH rig. Timberline's bike park will be open next year with a great 3 year trail building plan being overseen by gravity logic (helped build some of whistler's finest)

    I did, but they are so overpriced for what they are. I somehow ended up a free 15x100 from Amazon. Need to shave a few mm off each side and find some T-Nuts to bolt it to the rail. Also thought about just mounting it to a board like I did with my old Taco and strapping the bike down.

    Dude you have a multi-thousand dollar bike lol. The least you could do is spend $250 on a decent system

    True, the main advantage I see to spending more would be on a locking setup, but I already have a stout cable system. For now, I've already got what I need, just need to slightly modify it to make it work.

    Anyone have a recommendation on a hitch tray rack other than 1Up?

    I know 1Up is the top choice from most everyone, myself included, but I can get any of the other big name brands at about 40%.

    The Yakima dr tray looks pretty nice. If I wasn’t a cheap ass and love the tailgate pad, I’d get that one.

    It does look nice. I think it only accepts 26-29" wheels though. I have kids so I need as much wheel size range as I can get.

    Tailgate pads are nice. I run a topper which make them a little more challenging. I currently run a fork mount on a 2x6 in the bed which is great for security. I'm just getting tired of taking the front wheel off. Yes folks, I know it isn't hard and only takes a few minutes; but I'm tired of it and would like to try a hitch mount.

    @Coot83 Heard you're moving to Scottsdale? That should put you in reach of some good riding!

    Edit: Checked trailforks, North and West Scottsdale is stacked with trails!
