Saris Traps Fork-Block # SATRK34-BLK3 is designed to hold bikes with 9mm axles but not through axle bikes but we do have several truck bed bike racks that will accept through axle bikes, see link.

One of the more popular options is the Kuat Dirtbag # DRT15. I have included a link to a video of this product for you.

Just to make sure. My bike has a 6 bolt, Boost 110, 15 mm thru axle. Will this fit?

@ChrisR following up on charles' question (which is the same question I have) - with a 15mmx110 mm boost through axle are there sleeves that can be purchased to take up the extra 10mm (110-100 sleeve length of Kuat Dirt Bag) I'm trying to decide between the Kuat or the Swagman Impakt with 110 mm adaptor your review here has me leaning towards the swagman? https://www.etrailer.com/question-365760.html https://www.etrailer.com/Truck-Bed-Bike-Racks/Swagman/S64703.html#exp-productdetails=.related-products

@JohnF I recommend going with the Swagman Impakt, part # S64703, along with its Boost sleeve, part # S64719. This one will definitely be able to accept your 15mm x 110mm fork.

From the research I did it looks like the Fox 34 Fload forks you have on your 2015 Yeti SB5c (nice bike BTW), use a 15 mm thru axle. The #SATRK33 would not work with the 15 mm axles, it only works with 9 mm axles. The closest thing to this rack that…
