New Product – SeaSucker HUSKE Universal Fork Mount
Over the years’ bike manufacturers introduced new front wheel standards. The two most popular are the Quick-Release and Thru-Axle front wheels. The Quick-Release front wheel uses a lever and skewer. This passes through a hollow axle. to accommodate “Drop Out” style front forks.
Thru-Axle front wheel uses a removable axle. The axle diameter can be 9 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm and 20 mm. The width between the fork also varies. This creates a challenge when using a Fork Mounted Bike Rack. As a result, SeaSucker developed the HUSKE Universal Fork Mount.
So what’s HUSKE? It’s an acronym for “Hub Standards Keep Evolving”. The HUSKE Universal Fork Mount Base is a base product with plugs that can be inserted. As a result, the HUSKE Universal Fork Mount Base can transport bikes with the following front wheels
- 9 mm x 100 mm Quick-Release
- 12 mm x 100 mm Thru-Axle
- 15 mm x 100 mm Thru-Axle
- 15 mm x 110 mm Thru-Axle
These are the four most popular front wheel configurations. Depending on the demand SeaSucker will introduce additional plug kits to accommodate other front wheel configurations.
