Does it work for bikes with disc brakes?

It will depend on the size of your wheel and the radius of the disc. I have a mountain bike with 26" wheels and the rotor on the disc break is *just* low enough for the side of the stand to squeeze between the rotor and the wheel. To prevent damage to the rotor I just shoved a piece of wood under the wheel to prop it up an inch. This solved the problem, and the bike still fits snugly in the rack. I realize you probably already made your decision whether or not to by the rack, but I hope this is helpful for anyone else with disc brakes considering this stand.

My 26" MTB has disc brakes, and this stand did NOT work with it. On the front wheel, the rotor leaned heavily on the stand support. On the rear wheel, the stand support hit my derailleur. I decided to go with another one-bike stand that I had already had success with and just place them side-by-side. The other benefit of that is you can offset them slightly if needed.

It should fit. The back of the beach cruiser is like my mountain bike. I had no problem putting on my mountain bike with disc brakes. The attachment that comes with seat allows you to adjust for the height and position.

Hi Kate. No, this rim won't work with disc brakes. You need a rim with a special hub for disc brakes.

In order for you to convert <easily> to disc brakes you need to have wheel, frame and fork compatibility. From the left side of your bike look at the outside edge of your wheel hub, the lower front fork and the the rear seat stay above the axle. You should see, if compatible, six small threaded holes in the wheel hub <for disc mounting>, two threaded standoffs on the fork and rear seat stay <for calipers>. The absence of either will preclude compatibility and be an indication of what is required. Your existing brake levers, if mechanical wire pull, should be compatible.

Go to your Harley dealer and ask. It will depend on which brake disc, your bike has.

No it doesn't on my mountain bike with disc brakes. You have to buy a special carrier for that. From my searching, this is one that I found - Blackburn Ex-1 Disc Rear Rack; I haven't bought it though, so not sure it will work.

Will it work on the rear wheel of a mountain bike with disc brakes (so I can use the bike in the trainer or the road)?

The product is made for a 29 inch bicycle with disc brakes. I would suggest you try a rack made for a 28 inch bicycle.

There should be a Non-disc brake option. Try this link Topeak Super Tourist Tubular Bicycle Trunk Rack with Spring That should work for you.

It can not with the rear rack, but with disc brakes it can. Because I use a rack as well, I just switched to the Topeak Seatpost rack (http://www.amazon.com/Topeak-Beam-Rack-Type-Seatpost/dp/B000BR252I/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid;=1399737478&sr;=8-10&keywords;=topeak+rear+bike+rack) and then got the Pannier attachment so I can use my panniers with it (http://www.amazon.com/Topeak-MTX-Dual-Side-Frame/dp/B000BR113C/ref=pd_sim_sg_5?ie=UTF8&refRID;=1RVHP80FYR7SE7C535H3). Works great.

No, they are not setup for Disc brakes. Sorry, I haven't got a road disc setup on any bikes, so have no experience with it, so, no suggestions. Good Luck.

(Im not a 'bike person' so bear with my lingo) I wouldn't see why not as it attaches to the bars with hooks that seem basic enough to fit on most any shape (mine is on a retro style, chopper handle bars and works fine). I wasn't sure about your disc brake question though... the support rod fits on the bolt in the center of the front wheel... not sure how much room the disc brakes require. Perhaps not entirely helpful, but maybe some insight.

Sorry but no they wont. They are competly different systems. The discs mount to the hub on the wheels which need to be designed for disc brakes. Your bikes frame must also be equipt with disc brake attatchments at the end of your forks and same for the back most bikes have this at the front end. All depends on the bike.

You are correct, for mountain bikes with disc brakes and quick-release wheels, this would be a poor choice for security. This is meant for motorcycles whose wheels take much longer to remove.

It also works with my Raleigh Sojourn which has disc brakes. My friend rides a Surly Disc Trucker and he also uses this rack.

It should be fine. It connects on the outside of the rim away from the disc brakes. This is a good basic rear rack. It is adjustable for different sizes of bikes.

This rack holds the bike by the rims. So, yes it will work for your bike as long as the rims are held securely by in the "v" of the rack there is no reason it will not work.
