Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
I have both a Peloton and a Criterium mounted on my Scion XB. I love both racks. The Peloton is rock solid. Removing the front wheel is a minor hassle at worst, but for that reason I tend to use the Criterium more often. My mountain bike (Cannondale Jekyll - 44 inch wheelbase) barely fits the Peloton. The back wheel is at the very end of the tray. Plenty of room for my road bike (Specialized Roubaix)
Changing the rack from bike to bike (mine, my wifes, my kids) is easily accomplished with the thumb screw under the locking base. Removal/replacement of the whole rack only takes about 3 minutes.
Both the Peloton and the Criterium are great racks. If you want a little more rigidity, get the Peloton. If you want a little more ease of use, get the Criterium.

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
The mount was easy to install and holds the bike nice and tight. The tension on the front fork is easily adjusted, once you set it you basically forget about it.
The bike seems to be stable when fastened down. I grabbed the front fork and seat tube and tried to rock the bike, the bike stayed in place but the car rocked on its suspension. (Specialized Rockhopper Pro Disc with 26" x 2" tires)
The front end is notched out to accomodate disc brakes, something the older models didn't have.
I wish they had a way to make it just as stable while keeping the front wheel on. This is fairly minor since it really isn't that difficult to reinstall front wheels.

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
Awesome product. I had looked at various bike racks which didn't require removal of the front wheel. After reading lots of reviews, I opted for the Peloton because I didn't want to worry about the stability of my bike. I'm very glad I went with the Peloton. Very sturdy, and my bike was totally secure. I'm a 5'5" small framed woman, and putting the bike on the rack, by myself, was not difficult at all. I expected it to be harder to use, but it was incredibly easy.

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
I have a Thule hitch mount which is basically two Sidearms. It tends to knock my road bike's brakes around and I wonder about that it's doing to the wheel assembly and it is easy to steal the bikes. So I went for a couple fork mount for the roof.
Yeah, you have to take the wheel off but that's really not that bad, it's theft proof, doesn't beat up your wheel and brake, and rock solid. The Pelotons adjust quickly between different forks and hold the bike in place very well. I can shake my car with these things.
So why 3 stars?
1. I have the stupid Rapid Aero Bars and had to buy adapters for my Thule Pelotons to go onto my Thule Aero Bars. That is really getting annoying! Just send both mounting pieces Thule!
2. Not rapid. The back clamps to the bar with a lever and can slide quickly in and out of the Aero Bars. The front has to be removed with a #5 hex key, thus not rapid. Put a lever under the cap Thule. I paid for the bars, they whistle and get no real time savings on any of my components. They look great but that's about it. Just buy the square bars.

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
Great product. After adjusting the front fork tension, its lock and load with a simple handle to close tight & lock your bike. The existing straps swap between road and mountain bike tire size making it easy to use the same rack for both my bikes. The more expensive models I've used on friends cars have you pay way to much for "ergonomic" or "aerodynamic" features which seem nice but certainly dont justify the extra cost. This rack has the basics and is a no brainer purchase because its (1) inexpensive, (2) holds your bike tight and (3) is very easy to use. Bottom line, dont buy 1 of the latest & greatest rack for yourself, buy 2 of these for the same price and pick up your friend for a group ride!
- Gift:
- No
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
I had done a lot of research as to the type of roof top bike rack; read many reviews on Thule's Sidearm, Criterium and Big Mouth because I originally wanted a bike rack where I didn't have to remove the front tire. I read some horror stories about the security and stability of those racks. While I'm sure they are good, I didn't want to wonder whether, on any given day, my bike would fly off the car. On several different websites, people recommended the Peloton.
This bike rack was incredibly easy to install, and after using it for the first time this weekend, I'm very glad I went with this one, even though I have to go through the extra step of taking off the wheel. The bikes were completely stable and I had no worries about them flying off the rack. It was also extremely easy to get the bike on and off the rack (and I'm a 5'5", small framed woman).
I would highly recommend this bike rack.

set up in a jiffy.
Only downside is that I need to carry around an allen wrench with me whenever I take off the rack.

Comments about Thule Peloton Bike Fork Mount:
This is a great rack and I use it for my racing bike and my wife's hybrid. Taking off the front wheel is a minor irritant and only takes a minute or two. I have been very happy with this rack but, sometimes I notice the the latch opens up a bit. The bike stays stable and I don't worry about its security but I wonder why the latch opens sometimes.
