Abstract: It is common for bicycle riders to remove the bicycle front wheel and secure it with a lock and chain to the bicycle back wheel and frame when parking a bicycle. In such a case, the front fork of the bicycle then engages the ground. This often causes damage to the front fork or to the drop out slots in the front fork. To this end, a bicycle fork protector has been devised, the fork protector secured in the drop out slots of the blades of the front fork, the fork protector adapted to be interposed between the front fork and the ground. The fork protector consists of a generally elongated flat plate made of durable material with two pairs of opposite sides, one elongated side being a rounded side, the rounded side having a dense shock absorbing material strip adhesively attached thereto adapted to engage the ground. The opposite straight side is wedged into and frictionally held by the drop out slots of the bicycle front fork.
