Bike Carrier Attachment

I wanted to make an inexpensive bicycle carrier for my through axle bicycle to fit in the back of my truck. 

This attachment fits over a standard 2x4.   If you can make a basic 2x4 base, this can turn it in to a working bike carrier. 

STEPS:

1. Print bike rack and drill guide.
2. Clamp the bike rack into the position you want on the 2x4 
3. Get a drill bit that is the same diameter (or slightly bigger) than the diameter of the thru-axle on your bicycle. 
4. Place the drill guide over the circular fork rest on the side (refer to picture).  
5. With the drill guide attached, drill a hole through the 2x4. (Without the drill guide, the hole will not be straight making attaching the bicycle difficult.) 
6. Once a hole is drilled all the way through the 2x4, screw it in place in the screw holes provided.
7. To secure the bicycle, place the front forks on the fork rest on the bike carrier and use the thru-axle on you bike to secure it.
