Hey

So I'm in the market for roof rack to haul around my free-ride bikes and came across this little company that makes a fork mounted rack called SlikFit FatAxle combo comes fully assembled and includes everything you need to attach it to your rack bars. I found website that will sell me 2 for the price of 1 and a free QR adapter.


I was wondering if anyone could vouch for their quailty (or lack of), ease of use, and ergonomics of their products???????????

Well I orderd a pair of the fataxel combo for$120 I got them today and one was missing parts and the other was used and was dented. I'm sending them back and getting a full refund and I'm just going to go all out and buy the Yakima Highroller.


:frustrated: :frustrated: DONT BUY FROM THEM THEY SUCK :frustrated: :frustrated:

I believe that REI is offering 20% off all racks for the Labor day sale going on right now.
