 Wonderful product May 02, 2008
By A. Barnes
"hardcover adventurer"
I bought an old bike rack from craigs list and my son's bike wouldn't fit on it - the bar was too thick. To top it off, I ride a "girl bike" so mine wouldn't fit either. I was about to give up when I heard about bike frame adapters. This thing is great! It's portable, easily attaches, sturdy and makes my bikes fit on my bike rack. Now I just keep it in my trunk for when I need it.

Very Cool Feb 22, 2009
By Austin
This bike frame adapter is awesome & priced right. It has a spring in the body so when u pull it apart to attach to your handle bar stem & seat post it retracts for a tight fit, great feature. It also has rubber on both ends to reduce slipping & scratching of your bike.
i own a Yamika one too & this one is wayyyy better. The Yamika one has no internal body spring so as you drive over bumps or what not it slides apart & becomes loose on your bike rack.
Great deal, most in stores are $35 or more & this is a great deal for $21 !

SpareHand Indeed - Excellent Product!!! Nov 29, 2008
By S. White
My wife and I both own beach cruisers. Easily fits on the bike in seconds. A must have for mounting properly on a rack. No worries during transport on the expressway. Does the job well. This is a good, solid product for the money. Inexpensive compared to other models. Would highly recommend.

 Serious mountain bikers, be careful! Nov 10, 2010
By Brett A Myers
I initially bought this product after searching endlessly for a review by an owner of the same bike I had recently bought (2010 Specialized Enduro), but with no luck. There were multiple reviews by owners of bikes with unusual geometry, so I thought I was looking at the right product.
Unfortunately, no. If you have a high-dollar mountain bike, you probably have a large headset with limited or no space between it and your stem, like mine. I had to use the larger of the two ends of the adapter around the stem, and the smaller end around my remote-adjustable seatpost, and I wasn't too happy about having the adapter clamping directly on the seatpost's stanchion, either. But I was willing to accept even that.
Until I finally had the adapter on my bike, and attempted to put it on the trunk-mounted bike rack. Too bad that the lack of space between the headset and stem, also meant no space between the adapter and the forward end of my top tube! Where the top tube met the headset, there was literally aobut 3/4" between the top tube and the adapter! No bike rack I've ever seen has tubes this small, let alone the cradles that actually hold the bike's frame.
I have nothing negative to say about the adapter itself; the product is of average quality, and I assume it would fulfill its function adequately, with a bike with different geometry. I just wish they had been a little more forthcoming with its dimensions, and (in a perfect world) a list of bikes it was known to fit. Of course, I also wish I had the forethought to stare at my bike, and visualize the adapter in place before I purchased it; it might have been quite obvious that it wouldn't have worked. That sounds a little silly, but would have saved me about $35!
So, my advice to you is to actually picture where on your bike this adapter would fit, and how this will fit in with the bike rack you have or will soon have. (My bike rack is a Thule 961XT.) Just be quite sure that this will work for your situation before buying it, and don't make the same mistake I did!

GREAT TOOL - Wish I'd Seen This One First! Jun 03, 2009
By L. Furrow
"Electrologist, Master Esthetician, Animal Lover"
GREAT telescoping, adjustable length "crossbar" for the bike that doesn't have one. Women's bikes and kids bikes many times cannot be placed on a standard bike carrier if they are not equipped with a crossbar, or if the crossbar is too low or too short. This is great! The locking carabiner-type opening on BOTH ends makes this much easier AND safer than other brands.
MUCH BETTER THAN THE OTHER BRAND:
I just wish I would have seen this bike frame adapter before I bought the "other one." My first experience was poorly designed Allen Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adaptor that has a "safety" cable attached. On the first use, the cable slipped out of its clamp and when I checked it, the main clamp holding it together would push open with little pressure. I could have lost my brand new bike on the first outing!
When I opened the box for my NEW SpareHand Bike Frame Adaptor, it only took 3 seconds to recognize the superior workmanship and design.
DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!
