The RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount, part # RKY10007, will come with the nylon lock. The premium lock only comes on the RockyMounts SplitRail and the RockyMounts BackStage. You can get the Replacement Hitch Lock Pod for RockyMounts Bike Rack, part # RKY12006, and replace the nylon lock with a premium metal lock.

I have included a product description link, a video review of the Rocky Mounts MonoRail, and a demo video of the Lock Pod below.
