Since August 2024, there has been a NEW model of the inner part for quick-release forks.
The reason is that the drop-outs of some E-Bike are very thick, so it was necessary to make a new quick-release, so that larger drop-outs fits in the Quick-release fork mount.

The old model with one handle will not be produced anymore.

Yes, there is a carrier to transport bicycles or E-bikes inside. Click here.
It’s necessary to fasten this carrier on the floor very securely and steadily; it depends on the car type and is not always possible.

We will make the bike carrier only after consultation with the customer and on-demand.

Not necessarily. There are slots in the FIX-FORK products (fork mounts and wheel holder), so you can easily mount on a wooden plate, for example, without using the alu-profile MP-100X16.

Nevertheless, using the alu-profile MP-100X16 allows for adjusting and fine-tuning the fork mounts and wheel holder positions.

In most cases, yes. It depends on your requirements. For a customized installation, please get in touch with us so we can discuss your wishes and the possibilities.

Yes, it is possible by appointment.
Please let us know when you will pass by to pick up the goods.
You can pay with a Mobile phone (bank transfer or QR-code), Credit Card or Cash.

Customers can purchase the alu mounting profile on the measure in cm units.
For shipping in the EC, the maximum length is 195 cm.
For other countries, it’s less and depends on the shipping partners.
Longer lengths (up to 515 cm) are possible if the customer collects the profile(s) at our warehouse in Veurne or by shipping at extra cost.
When sawing, the maximum tolerance will be 2 mm.

All the essential parts for fixation of the FIX-FORK fork mounts are made in robust, high-quality, and wear-resistant plastic to avoid damaging the dropouts of the forks. The damage is impossible if you use the appropriate fork mount, with the proper bicycle fork, in the correct way.

The possibility of use of the fork mounts depends especially
– On the size and available space in the vehicle
– The type and model of bicycle, ex. Race bike, MTB, E-Bike, E-MTB, City bike, etc.
– Size of the bike and size of the handlebar

Some samples :
– MPV cars
If the cargo space area is sufficient, you can use a FIX-FORK bicycle carrier in most MPV cars.

– VAN
Usually, in every Van, enough space is available to transport bicycles.

– SUV
Most models aren’t suitable for transporting bicycles with the fork mount system. The reason is that space is not high enough (because the loading floor is too high) unless you will dismount your bike’s seat post and (or) rear wheel.
– STATIONCAR (also called Combi, Station Wagon or Break): Almost identical to the SUV: The space is not high enough unless you dismount your bike’s seat post and (or) rear wheel.

The best way to know if bicycles fit in your car is to do a simulation.
Dismount the front wheel, and put your bike in your car. If it succeeds, then you can use the fork mount system to transport your bicycles inside the vehicle.

There are too many variables to assemble a standard bicycle rack for the interior.

Some of the variable factors :
– Type of vehicle
– Available space in the vehicle
– Mounting possibilities in the vehicle
– Types of bicycles
– Types of bicycle forks
– Size of bicycles and width of handlebars
– Personal preferences

Nevertheless, there are already standard configurations (= only the base) for some types of cars.
For example:
VW Caddy, MB V-Class, Renault Kangoo, Citroen Berlingo, etc.

A configuration depends on:
1. Type of vehicle.
2. Size and space available in the vehicle
3. Type and model of bicycle, ex. Race bike, MTB, E-Bike, E-MTB, City bike, etc…
4. Size of the bike and size of the handlebar
5. Type and model of the Fork, and also type of fixation.
6. Possibilities of fixation in the vehicle
7. Purpose of the installation. For example :
– In the car, just only for your own bicycles.
– Cycling teams : just only for race bikes
– Must fit for all kind of bikes ( like professional bicycle transport or for renting companies).
– Personal preference
That’s why the most FIX-FORK bicycle carriers are custom made.
See also the CASES.

It depends on the fixation possibilities in your vehicle.
This are the most used fixation methods :
– on existing fixation points in the floor, like in the nuts of disassembled lashing eyes
– In the original seat rails, like in MB V-Class, VW Multivan, etc…
– In the wooden floor, especially in Vans, this with the special screw insert for wood.
– On a carpet floor, with special Velcro plates
– With a clamping set between the 2 sides (especially in Camper).

Sliding nuts are delivered with the FIX-FORK products, only if you has ordered in the same order, also the alu-profile MP-100X16 to mount the products.
If you order a product afterwards, to mount on the alu-profile, you need also to order extra sliding nuts and bolts to mount on the alu profile.

There are two possibilities to put the sliding nuts in the profile
1. The most logical is to put the sliding nut from the sides of the profile.
2. Maybe not logic but it works also very good: from above

In the packaging, sometimes you will find other used packaging materials. These materials are used at least 2X and this is better for the environment.

No. To secure a bicycle on a thru-axle fork mount, use always the original thru-axle of the fork.

PMM, or Plate Multi Mounting, is used when the existing fixing points in a vehicle are not on the appropriate place to mount the mounting profile. The adaptable PMM plate solves this problem and allows the mounting profile to be indirectly mounted to existing fixing points.
