How wide is the bar? Is it less than 2 inches wide. I need to know in case I want to install a bike mount that only installs on less than 2 inch bars

Stuart the bars are about 2in wide, no wider than that. I used my bars for a large cargo top carrier and they worked great.

I would say about 2 inches but it doesn't take away from the length of the bar. It is still the length it says.

it did not fit mine. the diameter was too small to fit around my handlebars. in the end it would cost me more to return it so off to goodwill with it...

Not on a 2" bar. Check the manufactures website I'm sure they have a mount for 2" bars

Typically the bar is standard size. With that said, it should fit well I cant guarantee it. I personally use this on thule spare me bike rack and it fit very well.

The bar gap is 2.5 inches at maximum. They can be smaller depending on the size of the space it is installed in due to the adjustment.

The bar is 48 inches wide. The brackets are 2 inches. That only leaves you 1 inch on each side. You place the bracket where you want. It might look goofy with the brackets all the way at the ends of the bar but you could do it. You need to anchor it to the studs for safety.

The width (at the widest point) is about 1 1/2". It's hard to be perfectly accurate since I already have it mounted.

I wouildn't recommend it. the bracket that fits to seat subing is 2" at least. The angle of this rack is tricky and below the rack shelf is a piece of tubing that hangs low and interfers with the tire. I tried it on my 700c tired bike and ona standard 26" bike both with seats to fit 5'4" height rider (seat is set pretty low) and it didn't work.

What is the vertical dimension of the joist? Is it exposed? Any other joists in the vicinity? My joists were only 2" wide and too close together for the bar mounts. I got a 4x4 and put that over the top of the joists and then secured the mounts/bar to the 4x4.

The mount fits very nicely on the standard Yakima round cross bar. I measured the diameter of the cross bar and it appears to be approx. 1 1/8" I am not familiar with other cross bars that are not square or round therefore I'm not sure my answer is helpful. The directions indicate the mount is for crossbars that are either round or square. I can say that I like this mount very very much and the only drawback is that is does reduce my gas mileage slightly by having the bike mounted on the roof. I also carry a canoe on top that affects the mileage as well.

I would guess 2". I mounted mine with some 2x3" rectangular. 3" being the vertical. I did have to buy longer bolts. the 2" seemed to fit nicely between the brackets.

This wouldn't be a good rack for a road bike, its more on the lines of mountain, hybrid bikes. I don't think 2 inches would fit, unless u know how and can make modifications.

I don't think it will fit. You might look at the mtn bike bar end option. It is s very versatile mount that a lot of toadies like.terry

The "U" shaped brackets were smaller than what I was trying to do... I wanted to mount it on my mountain bike. The "hose clamp" style worked great, and has a pretty long size range. Sorry I don't have an actual measurement.

It's just slightly wider. Good luck...this didn't work for me. I returned it and got the UltaLight Bike Mirror by D+D Oberlauda, and it's perfect.

Yeah. But it's not really bike specific it's handle bar specific. And if your handle bars are stock then they are most likely the skinny renthals with the crossbar. Either way if you buy these and you have the fatbars all you would have to do is get the oversized mount
