Abstract: An anchor for releasably securing a bicycle through-axle that is installed in a wheelless front fork of a bicycle to a load carrier. The anchor is made up of an anchor body having a through-axle receiving space for receiving a bicycle through-axle therein. The anchor additionally has a movable jaw located within the anchor body and that is transitionable between a receiving configuration in which an interior of the receiving space is expanded for insertably receiving a bicycle through-axle therein, and a securing configuration in which the movable jaw is in lateral abutting engagement with a bicycle through-axle received within the interior of the receiving space.

Abstract: A vehicular roof rack mounting bracket configured to be secured onto load carrier bars of different dimensions is presented. The bracket can include a pair of elongate clamps configured to be coupled to a bicycle fork anchor of a bicycle carrier. Each clamp can have a bar engagement portion configured to abut an exterior of an elongate support bar of a vehicular roof rack in a secured configuration in which each clamp is fastened to the support bar, and each of the pair of clamps can have a lengthwise oriented longitudinal axis such that each longitudinal axis is oriented at an oblique angle relative to the other longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A variably positionable bicycle wheel anchor for fixing a bicycle wheel at a desired location along an elongate support rail. The bicycle wheel anchor includes a body configured to be slidingly coupled to an elongate support rail for variable, fixed positioning of the body along a length of the elongate support rail. The underside of the body has a support rail engagement surface and the upper side of the body has a bicycle wheel receiver. The wheel anchor has a deployable interference mechanism coupled to the body and having a deployed configuration in which at least a portion of the interference mechanism protrudes beyond the underside of the body for releasable engagement with the elongate support rail.

Abstract: A bicycle carrier for mounting on a vehicle is disclosed. The bicycle carrier includes a tray configured to hold a bicycle. The tray defines a conduit. The bicycle carrier also includes a cable partially disposed within the conduit. The cable is configured to extend from and retract into the conduit at a middle portion of a length of the tray. The bicycle carrier also includes a lock head disposed on an end of the cable and a lock housing disposed on the cable and configured to slide along the cable. The lock housing has a through-hole surrounding the cable and a lock hole configured to receive the lock head. The through-hole and the lock hole are parallel to each other.

Abstract: An assembly for securing a bicycle to a vehicle having first and second fork prongs. The assembly includes an elongated skewer for mounting the first and second fork prongs of the bicycle thereon and has an end portion. A lever rotatably couples to the end portion of the elongated skewer and has a cam portion. A cam follower movably couples to the elongated skewer and engages the cam portion of the lever such that the cam follower moves along the elongated skewer as the lever rotates. The assembly also includes a lock assembly, separate from the lever and the cam follower, that locks the lever at a closed position and couples to the end portion of the elongated skewer such that the lock assembly is disposed around the end portion of the elongated skewer.
