How to Carry a Ladies Bike Without a Horizontal Top Tube with a Hanging Bike Rack
Question:
We have 3 different model bikes and it looks as if my wifes wont fit as its a ladys bike. We have a Schwinn Cruiser son, a womans 19inch Trek Skye, and a mens Trek 3500 16. Is there a compatible hitch mount rack or way to have all 3 on one rack? The womans bike doesnt seem to have enough clearance on the angled bar to fit. Vehicle: 2014 Ford Escape Titanium. thanks!

We have just what you need to carry your ladies bike that you sent a picture of with a hanging style bike rack like the part # TH934XTR that you referenced.
The adapter bar part # 64005 attaches to the steering stem and the seat post to provide a horizontal attachment point so that the bike can be carried level. I attached a review video for this product for you to check out as well.
If you don't have a hitch yet for your 2014 Ford Escape Titanium you would want the Draw-Tite part # 75758. This would work great with the bike rack you referenced and would have plenty of capacity to carry your 3 bikes.
