Has anyone seen a front fork mount available anywhere

I have to store bike in house with front wheel off, so then the fork sits directly on the floor and outside when I put the wheel on

Obviously scratching the lowers and want to avoid damaging the rebound dial etc

I know Rockshox forks come with a plastic one on all retail forks but can’t find them anywhere

Is there anything aftermarket or does anyone have a spare Rockshox plastic one they don’t use or just knocking around at all please?

Can you use the plastic transit clip that goes on there Maxle to avoid it hitting the floor?

They do exist, people use them in vans when they take the front wheel off to make space above for a bunk bed.

Lots of options on Amazon - "bike fork mount". And probably at more ethical places too.

Personally I'd use a drilled block of wood. Especially as I guess you wouldn't be bolting a mount to the floor, thus you'd need to mount the mount to a block of wood anyway.

Bikerevivesheffield - yep that’s exactly what I’m after I sadly don’t have one though

Just a plastic transit clip one that comes with the fork would be perfect but I’m struggling find one

The metal ones I’ve seen but don’t need as I don’t need it for a van etc

Could get one from wood etc though I’d use it for cleaning outside too with wheel off so likely best being plastic to easily wipe crap off

What about metal tool clips screwed into a piece of plastic or metal with self tappers
