This is an excellent fork mounting rack for the money. I have one of these as well as a Yakima Copperhead and this is far superior. Installation is extremely simple and no tools are needed. The locking skewer is a great design to deter theft and using the SKS lock only makes it safer. The rack is extremely durable, like most of Yakima's products. I have had mine for over two years and it is in great shape. You won't regret picking this one up.

I don't mean to sound redundant of previous reviews but this chair makes camping, backpacking, or anything where you need a rest so much more comfortable that I feel it is worth reiterating. The Trekker is lightweight, protects your pad, and gives your weary back the rest it deserves. If you can master removing and replacing the stays (which at first can seem like quite the chore) then you can convert it quickly and kick back while your friends sit on rocks and lean against trees. If your worried about spending the $$$ on something that seems less than necessary I would strongly recommend picking this item up. You won't be sorry.

Before this rack my only experience was with the Saris Bones trunk racks. The Yakima Quick Back is much easier to install and includes many convenient additions. The labeled straps make installation simple, and if you're installing on a glass trunk or hatch Yakima has included interchangeable straps for you. There are clamps to hold the excess rope so that it isn't flying around as you drive. Also the anti-theft cable is a good idea. I doubt that it would stop anyone who is very determined to steal the rack, but it will definitely help keep honest people honest. It works well on my 2003 Camry and easily goes over the spoiler. The only problem that I've had with it is that the sides of my trunk are angled inward and if I don't tighten the side straps extremely tight they slide downward and become loose. Because of all of the other positives of the rack I overlook this and use it as an excuse to get the straps extra tight. But it is something you should consider before buying it for yourself.

I compared this pack to the Camelbak Mule NV pack and chose this pack for its ventilation and its size.
I tried on both this and the Mule NV and felt that North Face's X-vent system might ventilate better, if only a little. I didn't get a chance to run or ride with the NV but after a few rides I am very happy with the ventilation of this pack. I'm a pretty serious sweater and never stay completely dry whether I'm wearing a backpack or not, but this pack helps the sweat evaporate and keeps me cool much better than my previous Camelbak without the NV system.
Also I wanted a pack small enough to use for biking and running but large enough for day hikes. The Megamouth specs say that it has twice the volume but it doesn't seem that much bulkier than the Mule NV. And the Megamouth's compression straps can keep it compact and close to your back or expand to allow plenty of cargo space.
As for comfort; while biking the pack is very comfortable on my back. But when running or doing anything while upright the bottom frame of the pack puts some pressure on my lower back. On longer and full day hikes I think the pressure from the frame would most likely become painful. But I cannot say for sure because I haven't used it on anything other than rides and short runs. Once I take it on a hike I will update my review.
I also really like the magnet on the hose, and the Nalgene Bladder has worked well for me so far, but I make sure to close the lid very tightly. Overall, I recommend this pack to anyone looking for cargo space and ventilation especially on long bike rides.
