Compatibility of Cruiser Style Bike with Fenders
Question:
Will this product work with a cruiser bike that has fenders? It almost looks like the loop on the back of the front tire would sit on the fender instead of the tire, would this be a problem?

Expert Reply:
The Yakima FrontLoader Wheel Mount Bike Carrier - Roof Mount # Y02103 won't work well with a full fender cruiser bike. A better option for you is the Swagman Upright Roof Mounted Bike Carrier - Frame Mount # S64720 which is a great option for bikes with fenders. This will hold the bike at the frame and won't impact the wheel fenders. I've attached a couple videos to assist.
