RockyMounts TomaHawk Roof Bike Rack for Fat Bikes Compatibility with Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Bars
Question:
I have one tomahawk already and am planning on getting another.. but before I do I want to know about mounting the tray on the passenger side of the car. Can I just mount the bike rack backwards so that the locking mechanism is on the outside of the car and the front wheel towards the trunk? Is there a way to turn the locking mechanism around so the bike is facing forward but the lock is on the right side of the tray?

The RockyMounts TomaHawk Roof Bike Rack for Fat Bikes - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum # RKY1222 will absolutely fit the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Blade Crossbars like # RRVA118B-2 that are 3-1/8" wide x 1-3/16" tall. I do recommend using the lock cores # RKY0332 to secure your bike to the carrier and your carrier to the crossbars.
