Can you load a woman's bike without crossbar ?

Yes. I have managed to load mountain bikes, road bikes, kids bikes (of various sizes) and a women's bike with no cross bar. Worse case scenario is you can get a cross bar attachment like this one: Allen Sports Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adaptor

Yes, but to do so you will need a crossbar adapter like: Thule Frame Adapter 982XT

No. The bike is supported/ hung on its crossbar and is secured by strapping the tie towns around the crossbar and the swing

Yes, but to do so you will need a crossbar adapter like: http://www.amazon.com/Thule-982XT-Frame-Adapter/dp/B004KZS5GW/ref=pd_bxgy_sg_text_y

You can - with the optional crossbar attachment that Thule (and others) make.

You should be ok without an adapter. I have 1 women's and 1 men's bike that I transport on mine without issues.

I have a woman's bike too and I was able to fit it on the rack without any problems.

It will be very uncomfotable to load the bikes. Technicali i dont see a problem if you have space on your rack but very unconvenient and i strongly dont reccomand

I don't see how it would work as there is no cross bar like a men's bike. As you can see, the bike rests on 2 pads. Perhaps Amazon can answer your question or call the manufacturer.

You will find on Amazon a temporary bar used for transporting a women's bike to be used with this type of Rack.

We use this rack with an Electra "Townie" women's bike -- no crossbar adapter is needed! That was one of the reasons we bought this particular rack.

I don't have any problems loading the 3 of our bikes that are women /girl frames without the tension bars.

First, plan to place the women's bike on the bottom. Second, place the brackets at two different levels on the side of the main bar. Third, twist the curved cup / bar holders to accommodate the slanted bike rod.

Yes, if you want your bike to be mounted perfectly horizontaly you will need to purchase a expansion bar ( not sure of proper name for it ) that creates a mounting surface like a mans bike, it extends from the seat mount to the handlebar mount. Thule makes them and can be purchased at most better bike stores. I believe it was about $35.00. I have seen womens bikes mounted without this bar but your bike is mounted very lopsided. I also use several bungee cords to also secure my bike to the mount so it does not sway. this is a great rack, easy to take off and on. I leave mine on all summer and take off in the winter and put my tire cover back on.

Yes. The handlebar holder is detatchable and can be attached in whatever way helps hold the bike in the position you need.

Sorry, I have not tried that. Although, even with one bike on the rack, it is pretty heavy.

Not sure what kind of girl's bike you have, but you would likely need to add a support bar from the handle bars to seat. However, if you want to add two bikes to this rack, get another one. The handlebars on adult bikes prohibit a good fit, even if you put them rear to rear.

I bought this thing and could not get it to work on my ladies schwinn cruiser bike. It seems to need the cross bar (which I thought were only on mens bikes). Am I missing somthing because I am thinking of sending it back.

You need to have a roof mount bike rack that requires cross bars. The LoadWarior front and rear edge bars act as cross bars of a roof rack so you can attach something like a Yakima ForkLift bike rack (Yakima Part no. 8002098) or really any roof mountable bike rack. Hope this helps.

Yes, I have a women's step-through bike and this rack works very well for it.

Yes, I do. Great Carrier. Great thing is that you dont need a cross bar to carry a girls bike since they are held up by the wheels. You DO have to lift the bike that goes on the inside to get it in there, but I have not found that to be a problem. Hope this helps.
