Compatability of Swagman Current # S64678 with E-Bike with Step-Thru Frame
Question:
Have Step Through Ebike, Will one of the frame hooks go down far enough to catch the bottom of this bike
asked by: David
Helpful Expert Reply:
It looks like you are asking about the Swagman Current Bike Rack # S64678. With your particular step-thru frame style, while we cannot confirm with certainty if the hooks on the rack are short enough to attach to the V at the bottom of your frame, it most likely is too short. We have also not seen a step-thru bike with the V that low that has worked with the Current's hooks without an adapter.
For that reason, we strongly recommend a bike frame adapter bar # 64005 for your bike. Also, since the bike frame adapter bar provides a more optimal mounting location higher on your bike, this location is more secure than on the V.
I went ahead and attached a video on how the # 64005 works.
