Bike Rack Solution for Rad City Step Through Bike
Question:
Have a Radcity3 step through, like the Yakima hold up bike rack. Would it be possible to put the bike on backwards so the vertical support would clamp down on the sturdy rack.

Expert Reply:
The Yakima Holdup part # Y02443 needs to clamp to the front tire so that it doesn't turn when loaded and also can't attach to the bike's rack or even to a bike with fenders like your Radcity. You need a bike that uses a frame clamp design like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which would be ideal for your bike. It also has a ramp system that pulls out for easier loading as well.
