US Patent 7631525 Wheel lock apparatus

The wheel lock apparatus is supplied as original equipment and as an aftermarket addition. The apparatus comprises two fork clamps, each of which is fastened around an opposed fork of a vehicle, the opposed forks partially surrounding the vehicle wheel. The apparatus is useful with virtually any form of spoked wheel through which the lock pin is selectively inserted to lock a vehicles wheel against rotation. Additionally, along with locking the vehicle wheel against rotation, the wheel is locked to the forks, preventing potential wheel theft, not only vehicle theft.
