M-Wave Seatpost Clamp with Rack Mounts

Product Information

Clamp-style stands hold the bike by the seatpost or frame tubes (although clamping the tubing can damage your frame, so we’d recommend the seatpost). They don’t work well on all aero seatposts and non-round tubes, since the clamping mechanism is usually circular. Thule Insta Gater Pro is compatible with 20-29″ wheels and bike tires that are up to 5″ wide. The installation is easy and doesn’t require tools or drilling. The first question is: how far and how frequently do you need to carry bikes? Then what type of bikes and how many bikes you need to carry. Which vehicle – or vehicles – do you have, and will you be taking a mixture of bikes? Are they heavy, do they have thru-axles, and will they be getting dirty?

There are generally two types of repair stands: those that use a clamping mechanism there are those that use a clamping mechanism to secure the bike by pretty much any tube you choose to fix them to. Within those categories, there are portable and permanent stands and basic models versus those for the pros.If you have a dedicated space or think of yourself as more than a home mechanic, a permanent, pro-style stand, like the Park Tool Deluxe Double Arm Professional Work Stand, might better suit your needs. These are generally heavier, cost more and have a sturdier clamping system - should you ever need to crank down on a bolt or pedal that just wont budge - these repair stands help by either sitting on a heavy duty base or are permanently installed on your workshop floor. And if you plan to work on e-bikes, make sure the stand can support the weight and has a wide enough base to be stable when loaded. Many repair stands have a weight limit that’s high enough to support most e-bikes, but some of the lighter and/or portable stands that are meant for travel may not be appropriate. Our three and four bike carriers are designed to carry a maximum load of 65 kg, which corresponds to 3 to 4 adult bikes.

Loading bikes is, of course, another primary concern. The SplitRail helps with this task by using tabs that keep the rear-wheel straps out of the way. It sounds minor, but in use it’s brilliant.

The heavy-duty vinyl cover on the 3/4″ foam pad also means it can withstand bad weather conditions pretty well. The TomaHawk’s biggest attribute is its ability to haul all sorts of bikes, from road bikes to 20in kids’ bikes, and fat bikes to 29ers.

You simply drape the pad over the tailgate and fasten the traps to secure it in place. When you want to transport bikes, you place them over the tailgate and use the velcro cradle system which wraps around the bikes’ frames to keep them secured in transit. style>
