Will this fit my 29 inch mtn bike with disc brakes and 2 1/4 in. thick tires?

Not sure, I ride a canondale and my husband has a Trek hybrid. Ours fit facing opposite directions. The rack space is 2 3/4 inches for the tires. I do not know how the disc brakes would impact the fit. This rack is not the highest quality but was better then leaning our bikes against a wall.

No, it does NOT fit disc brakes well. There is a risk that the disc hits or get squeezed .

Yes it will fit I have 29 inch Trek with disc brakes no problem works great

Fits my Specialized Carve Comp 29er with disc brakes. Topeak does offer an Explorer rack specifically for 29er's but its a bit larger.This fit mine perfectly and is 3 inches shorter (length) than the 29er version.

The measurement between the wheel loop is 3 1/2". 4" tires sound extremely wide. Most average mountain bike style tires are about 2-3". Did you physically measure your tires? Maybe you could let some air out and they would fit if they are that big. I'm very happy with the rack. Good luck!!

It will fit perfectly if your bike has disc brakes. Had the same bike, too. Nice

It absolutely fits 29ers. We have ours stored in our apartment with 29 x 2.2" tires. Actually, we just changed them out to 29 x 1.9" and the stands still do great. We have six of the racks and they hold our 26" MTB, 700C road bikes and hybrids and our 29ers. They are great

i also have found that the frame of the rack will flex somewhat.I have mountes racks on a mongoose 29er, my wife's schwinn beach cruiser and also her mongoose 26 inch as to theactual dimension it is somewhere about 5-6''

My old Diamondback Resonse has 26" x 1.95" knobby tires. I put the bike on the stand with 1 1/2" blocks under the front and rear tires to simulate 29" tires. It gave me about 3/4" clearance at the rear tire and it spun freely. It will probably work on your 29" tires. Hope this helps with your decision!

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.

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.

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 27.5" mountain bike with disc brakes and it fits fine. it's sitting in it right now as a matter of fact. very nice stand for the price

It should! The space is exactly 2.5" (I measured it) and my mountain bike has 2.5" wide tires and it fits. Good luck!

I don't think so, but am not at home where my rack is right now. Regular mountain bike tires fit ok. I wish I could be more positive, but until I am home, I can't be sure.

I can't say for sure, but it fit my '12 Trek Marlin 29er (w/disc brakes). I'd guess that the Mamba wouldn't be a problem either. The directions leave something to be desired, so if you buy it (and you should) do yourself a favor and look over the photos that others have posted of how it looks AFTER install. That will give you a better guide than the included instructions.

I would say yes. The clearance between the lowest part of the rack platform and the tire on my bike with 70cm (27.5 inch) tires is 1 3/4 inches. The distance from the wheel hub to the lowest part of the platform is 15.25 inches, so you would still have 3/4 inch of clearance with the 14.5-inch radius of a 29-inch tire... provided that the mounting points for the rack supports on the bike frame are at least the same distance above the hub as mine, which is about 1.5 inches.

there is really no correlation between tire diameter and brake typeit will fit if your bike has the proper mounting hole for this brake type, and you are not using an unusually small wheel relative to your fork sizein other words: if this type of brake is what is currently on your bike, it should fit

Yes, it will. I've fitted my 56cm Specialized Tarmac in it with plenty of space to spare for the frame and all sorts of extra bike equipment. You will probably have to remove the seat post though. See http://www.b-w-international.com/howtoputthebikeinthebox.pdf for all the details.
