My home made tour pack wall mount
#11

After looking at several tour pack wall mounts, I decided I could make one myself. Mine isn't as fancy, but it works just as well.
You'll need the following items:
Angle iron with holes (trust me, it's easier than drilling your own)
1/2" copper tubing
3/8" threaded rod
1/2" spacers
Vinyl tubing
Screws for whatever medium you'll be fastening it to
I chose 1/2" copper tubing since its OD is almost a perfect fit tor the front attachment points on the docking mount. One piece of the threaded rod is inside the copper tubing.
The copper tubing is just a touch big for the rear ratcheting mounts, so I used the 3/8" rod again with some clear vinyl tubing over it to protect the mounts.
Use 1/2" spacers between the angle iron and the wall to provide enough clearance for the ratchets.
Mine has 13" between the angle iron pieces (the copper tubing is 13" long). I wouldn't go any narrower than that. 14" is plenty of room and no need to go wider than that.
Pretty simple and reasonably priced.

I used CPVC for mine, otherwise like yours, only I drilled angle iron so I could offset the holes like on the bike mount. I can't remember what size CPVC, but I think it was 3/8"; if not, surely it was no larger than 1/2". It fit the quick release slot perfectly.
