 Good product, but online description needs detailsJul 20, 2008
By Andrea L. Vanleer
The bar does exactly what it is intended for. However, on the packaging of the bar it specifically says the distance from the seat post to handle bar post needs to be at least 18 inches, no where does it say that on the online write up. So, it doesn't work for my daughters' bikes. Something to be aware of.

 Cross Bar AdaptorJul 10, 2007
By William Stokes

Very handy item for multiple bikes on a rack. Keeps from having one bike tilted at an awkward position from the other(s). Very easy to use, just be careful as the spring tension can fool you and you can get a finger pinched. It only took one pinch and now I can set the bikes up like a pro.

Robust and functionalMay 02, 2008

This bar is very stout and capable of staying in place. I use it to mount two expensive Treks and feel confident the bikes will stay in place at 70mph on highway. When I picked up my new Treks, the service tech commented on the quality of the bar and asked who makes it, where I got it etc...he was impresssed of it's quality. The rubber end coatings interface well and won't harm bikes' finishes. Both my treks have different frame configurations, the bar adjusted easily.

does what it says but watch your fingers!May 26, 2008
By Nicholas M. Hincks
This bar works well and has held my bike on our rack for about 10 trips without issue. My only quibble with the product is its seeming desire to eat my fingers while being installed.

Works great. Can be painful.Jun 21, 2009
By Jetmaker
Works great for holding the bike on the rack. But it can be a pain... literally! Due to the spring tension and the funky retention pin, if you aren't careful you'll get your hand pinched. This is because you have to stretch the bar against the tension and then insert the pin. If you slip it will snap back with a lot of force. If your hand is in the way then... OUCH! The same can happen when removing the bar. This is probably guaranteed to happen to you at least once. Don't worry, you will heal in a day or two. From then on you will pay very close attention and it should not be a problem.
