Does the Yakima Tube Top Bike Adapter Bar, # Y02531, Have a Locking Feature
Question:
Does the bar itself LOCKS to a certain length.. Say for example:I understand that the maximum length is 31-1/2 and i want to lock it at 22length....can I lock the bar/tube?

Expert Reply:
The Yakima Tube Top Bike Adapter Bar, # Y02531, does not have a locking feature. It will remain at the length you set it to and will not extend or retract because it will be clamped around the seat and handle bars posts on a bike.
I recommend a locking cable to secure the bike to the rack. You can use Yakima Cable Lock, # Y07233. I have included links to the installation details and a video review of the adapter bar for you to view.
