The Bikelane Cross Bar Adapter acts as a substitute top tube, giving your rear car rack a suitable frame-mounting point when the bike has a low, step-through or absent cross bar. It is designed for full-suspension, ladies', women's, children's and kids' bikes, as well as mountain bikes without a conventional cross bar.
Made from steel, the adapter measures 620 × 80 × 40 mm and supports bikes up to 15 kg. The swivel frame adaptor helps accommodate different frame shapes, while the quick-release hooks at each end open when you press the snap buttons.
To fit it, check that the saddle and seatpost are firmly secured, then attach the smaller hook around the seatpost and the larger hook around the stem. Make sure both snap buttons are fully engaged and the adapter is fitted in the correct orientation before placing the bike on your hitch- or trunk-mounted carrier.
A practical choice for anyone carrying a low-step, full-suspension, kids' or no-top-tube bike on a frame-mounted rear car rack, provided the bike is within the 15 kg limit.
