Are Cradles Flexible on Hollywood Racks Road Runner Bike Rack
Question:
Hello, My Specialized Rockhopper has a rather wide 2”?, flat oval shaped top tube. Will the cradle arms on the HR400 flex down to adjust to that shape? Or are they a firmer plastic shaped for a more cylindrical top tube? Thank you.

Expert Reply:
The cradles on the Hollywood Racks Road Runner # HR520 are fairly stiff and don't have much, if any, give where they swoop up. The rubber straps are flexible though so they will fit just fine over the bike frame.
An alternative solution that will fit with a wide variety of bike frame styles is the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # HR4000. This is a cost-effective option when it comes to platform racks but it is compatible with standard bikes and it uses cradles and straps to secure the bikes as well, but the cradles are much more accommodating as they don't have the high edges like the cradles on the hanging rack do.
