I've just purchased a wall mount bike clamp / stand where the clamp attaches to the wall mount with two vertical bolts.

It would be nice to be able to remove the clamp without too much hassle - is there such a thing as a quick(ish) release bolt which will tighten up enough to support the weight of a bike?

You got any pics?

We use quarter turn fasteners at work on cladding panels. They work well, but hard to say if they'd be appropriate without knowing the set-up...

I've played this game with an industrial application, you need these;

they are pretty much the only thing that works as a quick release on a standard threaded stud - they wont do massive clamping torque so dont use them on a car mounted bike rack!

knobs (hur hur) galore

Those QR star knobs look like they would do the job nicely!
