Does this rack fit a 29 inch mountain bike? I ordered a Motobecane.

Yes. It has adjustable legs on the bottom. However on my 4th or 5th time using it mine broke with only about 35 lbs of weight on it. One leg snapped clean in two and the other bent while on a very bumpy road. It broke where the adjustable holes are at the bottom, so clearly by having an adjustable rack there are compromises made to the integrity of the rack.

Yep. Fit's mine perfectly. If your bike frame has a mounting position on the seat post (threaded holes) You're good to go, if not, you need to order a bracket that attaches to the seat post, that has threaded holes. (They're cheap). This rack is very well made, and both the bottom mounting stays, and those that reach towards the seat, are adjustable. I definitely recommend it for a 29er.

It fits a 700c road bike with plenty of room to spare, so it should fit a 29er.

I have a hybrid 700c wheels (approx 28 inch) and there looks like a lot of room for a larger wheel. It seems that this rack is made for larger bikes.

As noted below, this is for disk brakes. The rack has plenty of clearance for the rear fender. I own Planet Bike Cascadia 29er fenders and was able to mount the rack no problem. In fact, it was extremely easy to mount and tweak it to fit perfectly. Good luck.

The rack fits nicely on my 28" 700c bike. You may need to use a little muscle to squeeze the main bars to the back wheels. Hope it helps!

Thanks for the reply... A 29er is the diameter of the mountain bike tire - 29".

I have a Specialized CrossTrail Disk. With cable actuated disk brakes, & the rack fit my bike without any issue. I have a Medium sized frame. Hope this helps.

I have put mountain bikes with 26 inch wheels in the rack. I can't imagine why it would work with 24 inch. It adjusts to fit 29 inch wheels. It's a great rack.

Should have no problem, but may require you to remove or lower your seat. Wheelbags are sized to fit 29ers.

I can't speak to your certain model of bike, but it fit on my sons 26" Schwinn mountain bike with no issues.

I do not know if it will fit your bike, but I have a unique 29" wheel bike, and the rack is very adaptable/adjustable. The only thing I needed to attach the rack to my bike was 2 of the rubber lined electrical conduit loops/clamps that can be purchased at any home improvement store ($1.89 for both clamps). The rack is very well built/designed, and holds my Pannier bags securely and withstand a lot of weight (have had over 50 lbs in my bags).

I have a 29er and a racing bike with 700cc tires. Both fit just fine. You need to slide the plastic holders in the best position to get the best fit.

The first thing the instructions say is that it is not designed for 29inch bikes. It does looks like if you angled it back more (meaning having the back bars not flush with the bed of the truck) it should hold a 29er. BTW, I put a 2.8 downhill MTB tire in it. A bit of a squeeze but it fit.

As other respondents have mentioned they are adjustable. The rack should fit on just about any bike. I have mine installed on a 29er with 29" x 2.1" Serfas Sheriff tires for dry trail conditions. When the trails get muddy I'll be running 29" x 2.25 CST Ouster tires. So, there is adjustable clearance for big tires/ wheels.

Hi! Unfortunately this rack will not fit on the bike you are referring to. Thanks.

I have only traveled with my road bike, which have 700C rims which are essentially 29" wheels so your 29" MTB wheels should fit.

I am NOT sure, my tire range is pretty big, it doesn't fit exact like my hubby's bike, but it holds my bike straight up with a good grip, love the rack...I have a GIANT TALON 29ER 1 W - WOMEN'S - 2013 I hope this helps. You can always return it...Made well..

I have a 26er mountain bike and thre is room so it looks like it should. The fit issue I have is the width if the wheels not the radius.
