Mn is awful with chemicals on the road in the winter. I really like having my bike in the bed this time of year. I was using my Yakima Holdup and just throwing it in the bed, but heavy and took up a lot of space.
I really didn't find an off the shelf solution I liked. So you gotta make something yourself!
Works perfect, no lifting the whole bike up onto the tail gate. Very stable.
Cost Yakima Holdup tray-$126
1X3 9" aluminum-$9
1X4 by 60"-free scrap....but probably $10 at Home Depot.
So lets say $150. No tricky construction just have to drill 4 holes and countersink them.
Light, easy to handle , easy storage.
