Abstract

A display fixture for holding one or more cycles includes a linear track, a stop, a wheel mount, and a coupling member. The linear track defines a channel along the linear track. The channel is open upwardly and extends from a first end to a second end of the linear track. The stop is secured to the first end of the linear track. The wheel mount is slidably received along the linear track. The wheel mount includes a cam member, slidably interacting with the linear track, and an extension member, extending as an upward bridge between opposing sides of the cam member to receive a wheel of one of the one or more cycles by extending over a portion of the wheel. The coupling member extends through the wheel mount and the linear track to selectively secure the wheel mount in of position along the linear track.
