The answer to your question is, Yes!
Hanging-style bike racks such as the Swagman Trailhead 4 Bike Carrier # S63380 can pose a challenge for mounting some women's, kids' and alternative-frame-design bikes that lack a horizontal top frame tube typical of a standard man's bike. In such cases use of a bike adapter bar will provide the solution.
We offer a number of these adapters including the Swagman Easy-Out # 64005 which would be a great choice for you.
The bar attaches between the seat and handlebar posts to provide a level mounting surface to mate with the arms on the carrier. This will help keep the bike level for better ground clearance at the wheels.
