I like fork mounted but need it to take my MTB with 15mm drop outs as well as a normal Quick release on my road bike.

Advice please...

I've got a couple of Thule pro-ride 591s which are great. Wheel and down tube mount though.

I'm a bit weary of clamping my carbon road bike down tube.

What do you think, with your experience?

Thule are good and the latest ones will, i think, take both. Pendle now do a fork mount as well which looks simple and strong. Singletrack did a review the other month - you should get the back issue or take an online sub..

Thule 591, put some cloth or webbing material around tube where the rack attaches.
