Simple, Sturdy, Safe & Smart!
this Rocky Mounts Clutch SD review by MissyTrue
vehicle(s): 2009 Toyota Tacoma
item(s) transported: One mountain bike and a beach cruiser
Was looking for something that I didn't have to drill holes through my brand new truck and I found it! So simple to install and the best part it works with the truck's new railing system. I don't have to worry about my bikes coming loose while driving and feel safer with its theft deterrent feature while running into a store. Overall, I love this rack!!
Perfect!!!

I just wanted to say that this is one of those products that hits a home run. I love how it integrates into the channel of my truck bed, versus needing to be drilled or clamped. It holds my bikes very well, but the skewer takes a little getting used to, not the easiest to adjust in the world, but I figured it out. Anyone looking for a fork block bike carrier who has a Tundra or any truck with a channel running along the bed, check this out. Strong, simple, and secure and a great value. Just plan on a learning curve with that skewer.
Unsecure Locks

After reading the previous reviews I thought I had found the perfect product to hold and lock my bikes in my new truck. Unfortunately, after only a few weeks of use the I found the locks to be easily broken. My husband and I bike almost every weekend and have very nice bikes which need to be secured while we are traveling. A couple of weeks ago, while we were grabbing a bite to eat after our workout someone had tampered with the lock and managed to break it. We found that one nice yank on the lock itself completely broke the core mechanism and left the bike open for theft. I agree that the mounts work well for holding the bikes while in transport but the overall security of the mounts with the locks is very poor and not what I thought I was purchasing at the time. I am very disappointed and now have to purchase a new mounting system to ensure my bikes will not be stolen from the back of the truck.
Clutch SDs are Awesome

I bike a lot and have always just thrown my bikes into the bed of my pickup. I just purchased two Rocky Mountain Clutch SD carriers and now am wondering what took me so long! These are a great way to carry bikes in a truck for cheap and they work great. The best thing is how they attach, right into the track of the bed. If you don't have a channel, then you can get one that clamps on. I've been down some bumpy roads and the fork stayed in place, but the rear wheels of the bike jumped around a bit. Someone should figure out a way to keep that wheel down. Otherwise the thing is perfect.
Great Product at the Best Price

This is the simplest bike rack to use for trucks that have the bed rail system. Can be installed in minutes and ready to use. You can also easily move it to another part of the truck bed if your cargo needs change. I would highly recommend this product.
