Patent attributes
A system and method for mounting one or more accessories to a vehicle with forks is disclosed. The system can include a frame comprising mounting plates, the mounting plates including at least an axle hole and a fork stop hole. The frame can also include frame rails to connect the mounting plate to an accessory mount. The system can be mounted to the forks of the vehicle using the axle hole and an axle. A fork stop can be placed in the fork stop hole and can include one or more interface points to fit the bottom of the forks. The fork stop can transmit forces from the accessory to the forks in a linear manner and to a location where the forks have additional strength. The fork stop can be designed such that it bends in response to an impact rather than breaking the forks.
