Slikfit -20mm fork mount for rooftop rack... any experience?

**wrothdonkey** · 08-29-2007, 01:47 PM

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???????????

see them here:

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.

DONT BUY FROM THEM THEY SUCK

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