Yakima® 8002118 - QR Locking Skewer

Determined thieves could loosen the skewer on your fork mount bike rack and make off with your bike in as little time as it takes to walk into the quick mart for snacks. To foil such miscreants install the Yakima Locking Skewer. This universal skewer can be used on most fork mount bike racks. It can be locked with a Yakima SKS lock core and key (not included). The SKS system allows the same key to be used for all Yakima accessories. On this skewer the adjustment knob and lever can be manipulated from one side of the vehicle, a big advantage when the rack is mounted on a tall vehicle.

The Locking Skewer comes with illustrated instructions and it’s backed by a limited lifetime warranty against defects in materials and workmanship.
