 Bike adapter worked just fine January 6, 2009

This bike frame adapter did exactly what it was supposed to and was shipped and received in a timely fashion. Thule should, in my opinion, supply bike adaptors with their hitch carriers free of charge, or at the very least be more women- and child-friendly by posting warnings that these bikes will not fit the carrier without an adaptor.

I bought two of these because my kids bikes do not have a top bar. The product description says to attach it to the seatpost and headset but since the adapter is too long, I had to attach it to the seatpost and the handle bar. The bikes rest on the carrier at a steep angle, but it still works. Just be aware of this if you have small bikes.

This product has come in very handy for my new Thule bike rack on my hatch. Now-a-days most bikes do not have a straight bar to put across the rack forks and this item alleviates many issues I would encounter. Definitely a must have for trunk and hitch racks.

Bought this for a friend, she had trouble getting a rack for her car that would fit a womans bike without it tilting. She uses the product all the time and loves it.

I am very satisfied with the product; it does exactly what it was meant to do-- provide a crossbar for my woman's bicycle so that I can attach the bike to my car rack. It took me a little while to figure out how to open up the ends of the crossbar to attach to the bike since no instructions were provided (you need to push in those tiny gold buttons to release the end connectors) but once I got that down I've had no problems. I am very happy with the product and give it my full endorsement.
