Will this work with a non cylindrical top tube? The top tube on my Cannondale Hi-Mod 8 tapers to 2.25in in diameter towards the front

Yes, it shouldn't be an issue. The hooks are quite large and will be able to accommodate any size tube.

I am going to say no and refer to the old saying... its like trying fit a square peg into a round hole, it aint going to happen. But I am not an engineer either.

I believe it will my bike also taper and the swag man has a just able hooks that will cradle the tubing securing the bike. So yes.

I believe so. We have two Giant 2 Escape cycles with almost 2" non-cylintrical top tubes and they seem very secure. The bracket seems like it could easily handle another 1/4".

It will fit on most standard handlebars which are about 1" in diameter. Newer more expensive mountain bikes are using a 31mm bar which will not work. If you are using a mountain bike you might want to measure but otherwise you shoul be fine. God Bless

Hi, you need to check if the orbea frame use a regular 1 1/8" headtube or a tapered one. This one its an standard 1 1/8" head tube.

It should fit most bikes.If the bike's tubing is too fat you may need to buy longer bolts of the same threading as I did for a peticuler application.

I have a Santa. Cruz TallBoy Large frame. No problem with the front tube, however, had to order a second support (plastic black) for the rear.

In my case, the stock Cannondale stem was removed along with 10 mm worth of spacers to accomodate the new Avenir stem, which measures 45mm - a perfect fit. They have a cautionary note that states that you need to be sure you've got 45mm to work with, either current stem sleeve height or with spacers combined. Thus, your fork steerer tube needs to extend at least 45mm. As far as bar height, you're dealing with differences in angle and stem length. I'm quite happy with the rise on my handlebar.

I have only used this replacement top on the Ez-up frame. A 10' x10' frame, I would think, would still fit, maybe only the height or shape of the top peak may fit differently, if that's important to you.

I used this on my class a motor home and had to cut down the length of the upper tube. You can go on Maxxtow web site to get the sates you are looking for.

Yes, but not very good. I have actually done that but the bike would slip and move. The top tube on my bike is angled so it slipped to the corner where the top tube meets the head tube. It would work if you "tie" it down to the hanger.

There is usually a range of tubes that will work. Sunlite Bicycle Tube 26 x 1.95 - 2.125 from Amazon will do fine. 26" is the rim diameter and the other is the tire width. You also need to determine which valve you need. Schrader or Presta. Presta is the smaller one.The Schrader is the larger one.

The curiser-styled bicycles not only have curved top-tubes but also limited space in the triangular frame (consisting of the top tube, the down tube and the seat tube). I would use caution and gauge the inner dimensions of the bicycle to make sure that they are wide enough to fit on this rack. My hunch is it will Not be easy - you will require an adapter.

You will not be able to reuse the mtb inner tubes. Go with the right size tubes.

Well, I would say to measure the distance of the area that drops on your riser handlebars (in other words, the middle of your handlebars) to make sure there is enough space for the brackets on the aero bars (which is typically fairly narrow ranging from 3-4 inches). The other thing I would be sure of is the actual diameter of the aero bar brackets compared to the diameter of your handlebars. When I purchased the aero bars, the brackets had a larger diameter than my handlebars, and they did not fit.I hope this helps!

Probably will not work with that type of bike. The hooks slide down the center pole and hook over the top bar on the frame. This works OK for my wife's Cannondale Hybrid but the bar is high enough on the frame that the hook can engage and keep the bike secure.The only adaptation that comes to mind is if you could rig-up a temporary top bar for the frame and I think i have seen those somewhere. The bar goes from the head stem to the seat upright. Good question.

It has a bit of slack on mine for a thicker tube. if not, you can add a large Zip tie not only to fit it but to secure it from people taking it. I zip tie everything on my bike anyway. I live in NY.

I've clamped a few different bikes at the top tube without much problem. . .however, make sure you're at or at least near a "balance point" where you clamp the top tube. (Also make sure that the rotating head is engaged at an angle parallel to the top tube and all clamps are snug.) The "mast" needs to be oriented so it's angled over the "feet" so that you create a stable center of gravity. (I'd estimate in the ~ 10 degree range.)

Technically I am not sure. I have a Cannondale Mtn bike. There are 3 notches for the upper half of the clamp to fit in the bottom one. Mine is thick and it is in the middle one. Then the screw joins the 2 together and you simply hand tighten it. I feel this is universal and would fit a kids bike all the way up to the fattest mtn bike they make. This is the 1st I've seen to have 3 adjustable settings. If I can I will measure it later but mine is 1.5 " thick and it is only in the middle position. Hope this helps.
