    Curious how you guys are doing it. Not as easy as I expected to find a bolt-on bike rack to mount to the Overland Bars. Most seem to use a clamp designed for the typical oval load bars found on an oem/thule/etc roof rack system. I was looking to potentially mount 2 bikes on top. Prefer a fork mount (thru axles) Any leads would be appreciated!

    I'd get some Kuat Dirtbag thru axle fork mounts and use threaded bolts/nuts through the slots on the Overland bars. Easy peasy.

    hmm, yea, for the front. A few places make something similar, But what about a rear tire cradle? Thats the part I'm having trouble locating if I were to piece something together.

    THanks Sam! Last night I thought of just splitting a pvc pipe down the middle and bolting that on. The KB Voodoo looks like a much cleaner option though ;)

    I went with 1up trays bolted to side of rack with custom brackets by Sergio, but you could also bolt the tray to the top or rack as well.
