About Hollywood Racks
Hollywood Racks started in 1973 when they began making trunk racks in the back of our bike shop in Hollywood, CA. As a retailer, the company knew exactly what people needed: good quality products that were easy to use. They earned a great reputation fast and began selling racks to other dealers, and later to the bike companies. Today, Hollywood Racks builds racks the only way they know how: simple, strong, and secure.

Hollywood Racks are built with top-quality materials including high-strength steel, aircraft-quality fasteners, and thick powder coats to withstand the elements. Generous amounts of padding protect bikes and cars, and all of their products are fully covered with a limited warranty. The company's products continue to receive accolades from all the major outdoor sports magazines, and are in demand by everyone from recreational cycling families to weekend warriors to race teams on the road and off.

I bought two of these for what it would have cost to buy one of lesser quality at my local bike shop. I screwed them into a 2x4 to put in the bed of my pickup truck and they work just great. I was surprised at the workmanship quality of this sturdy fork mount. Highly recommend the product.

I purchased two of these and mounted them to a pine 1x6x36" in order to create an interior bike holder for my 2006 RAV4. Refer to the photo gallery above. My bike fits fine but I can see that for bikes for tall riders it would be necessary to remove or lower the saddle/seat post assembly (or use a larger vehicle). With an interior bike holder the bike is both held securely -and- well-protected from theft, vandalism and the elements.

In any event, these fork blocks are great; no need to go with a costlier version sporting a fancy brand name.

This review is from: Hollywood Racks T970 Fork Block 1 Bicycle Fork Mount (Sports)

I have 2 bikes and an SUV. I was able to carry only one bike by lying it down. I bought 2 of these; now I can mount both my bikes (or one).

Pros: So much cheaper than a bicycle rack, safer against theft and the elements.

Cons: I deducted one star because the axis is lower than the handle...therefore, is not easy to rotate it 360 degrees. First I mounted them on 2 pcs. of 2x2 cut as wide as its base to give enough clearance for the handle then screwed them on a 6x1x48 wood.
