No need to remove front wheel.
Hold bike securely.
Works with most bike sizes, from 20" wheels to 29" wheels.
Cons: Not as aerodynamic as fork mount trays.
Recommendation: Several of my friends have fork mount trays and I found it very annoying having to remove my front tire all the time.
I decided to get these instead and I LOVE them. I can load or unload a bike in seconds, and they are very secure when loaded. (I have carried bikes with these from Colorado to Maine and back and to Utah and back several times)
Stop removing your front wheel. Get these and you won't regret it!
