      Great piece for y frames and other odd framed mountain bikes. It could use a locking mechanism on the telescope effect, but still gets the job done.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

              Wanted something for my wife's Trek bike to load onto a rack but this is too long for that bike. Will have to take it back and find something shorter. Probably looks like it would have worked well but needs to be shorter for at least this bike!

              Comments about Yakima Top Tube Adapter:

              Although this device makes it possible to use the Yakima FullSwing 4 Hitch Rack to transport women's-model bicycles, it is not a perfect fit, and each "nonconforming" bicycle requires one of these accessories in order for the carrier to transport it. This retrofit accessory does not stabilize the front wheel, as the carrier stabilizes the front wheels of men's bikes.

              Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
