DIY: How To Build a Fork Mount Bike Rack for $20 in 30 Minutes

Описание: Do you need a way to transport your bike but don't feel like shelling out hundreds of dollars for a hitch rack? Well, look no further because I've got a solution for you that's quick and requires only a few common tools. This rack can be used in any pickup truck bed and in most SUVs.

See this project on Singletracks:

For this project you'll need:

1 piece of wood (ideally a 2x6 or bigger)
1 1/2" floor flange (per mount)
1 1/2" tee fitting (per mount)
1 1/2" nipple fitting (per mount)
2 Close PVC risers (per mount)
4 wood screws (per mount)

Tools required:

A saw (if the wood is not pre cut)
A drill
A tape measure and a writing utensil
Pliers (optional)

The rack I built with two mounts cost a total of $21.37 for the finished product. If you have common materials laying around the house (like wood and screws) and only need a single mount you can easily get away with building this setup for $10. Check out the video for detailed instructions on how to set this rack up!
