Will The Thule DoubleTtrack Pro XT Work With A Trek Bike With An Angled Frame?
Question:
OOPS. THE QUESTION I HAVE IS THAT WE ARE CONSIDERING A THULE DOUBLE TRACK PRO XT RACK, BUT MY WIFE HAS A TREK BIKE WITH SLIGHTLY TILTED INNER FRAME TUBE. WILL THIS THULE RACK WORK SECURELY WITH THE ANGLED BAR, OR WILL I NEED AN ADAPTER OF SOME SORT TO SECURE THE BIKE ON THE RACK. THANKS.

Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT Bike Rack # TH92BJ you mention will work with your Trek bike as long as your bike doesn't have a wheelbase exceeding 51.9", and doesn't exceed 75-lbs.
The Thule Doubletrack uses two independently-adjustable ratcheting arms to grip the bike frames, so yo u shouldn't need an adapter bar to securely transport your bike.
