Will this bike rack work with a thick frame like this one? (http://www.amazon.com/Schwinn-Merge-...

It will work with a thick frame bike (one of my bikes is a Trek) but not sure without a cross tube.

I've used mine on the back of my vintage Schwinn 10-speed and my modern Raleigh flat bar road bike (mine is set up as a commuter), and they both worked fine. You probably already know this, but you will need to make sure that your frame can be set up with a rear rack.

Yes it will, in fact it's more stable that way. I have two bikes on my rack and it works quite well. A small trick you can use is to wedge the bottom of the rack on the front center of the base(perhaps a piece of cardboard or a wooden wedge) so that the top will lean backwards a bit against the wall.

Yes, there could be a problem with that depending on the size of your bikes. It rubbed on mine. But even more of a problem is the design of the rubber pieces to securely hold the bike to the rack. The straps are not well designed. They are too short and very hard to pull over the bike tube and hook. I would not recommend this rack. I now use it to hang my A frame ladder and, after we are parked, it is also used to hang wet clothes!

sorry, I am clueless. I don't know which bike I have, and I had to return the rack I purchased.

It can, but they will be pretty close together. I don't like my bikes to rub against each other, so I usually will only Cary one adult bike and one kid bike on his rack.

I would contact the company to be certain, but we load really beefy kids bikes on there with no problem. Just make sure your hitch is rated for the very heavy Swagman PLUS your very heavy bikes. ;)

depends...do your bikes fit in it? If your bikes will fit in your bed, you should have no problem using this rack. you can also look this item up on youtube for a better understanding of how it works. good luck

I have a schwinn and when I ordered mine I was worried it was not the right size because the description didn't match what I was being told. But even my local bike store said it should fit and it did. Not sure if that helps you but good luck.

I looked at a photo of that bike and if you have the proper carrier/rack to mount these baskets onto, I don't see why not. Looks to me as if the bike has all kinds of mounting points for that sort of project, it's just a matter of choosing a good one that will work with the bike, and accommodate those baskets.

We have put a 24 inch trike along side a 26 inch hybrid and the carrier works perfectly. Just be aware it is a 2 inch square hitch. The bikes are very secure. The rack is adjustable for width and length. My trike is not a Schwinn, but don't know why it wouldn't worked. We really like the carrier.

You have the same bike I do, yes this bike rack will work as I have this rack myself. The rack working with your car however depends if you already have a hitch on it or not. If yes, then you're good to go. If you don't have a hitch already, then you need to see if it's possible to have one installed.

I don't see how you would join the two racks together. The bar on the second rack that would normally fit into the receiver would not fit into the end of the bar on the first rack. I would bite the bullet and buy the 4 bike rack. Rick

it may depend of which model. I saw most of the models. I truly doubt it. This rack relies on traditional rear triangle geometry to try to make it work. Perhaps the best thing to do, if you want to risk it is to try to purchase it via a store where you are able to try and return if it does not work. Don't risk ordering it without return privileges.

I haven't tried it that way as I have a regular 2" hitch but I don't see any reason it wouldn't work. It would make the bike rack stick out further but that might not be a problem.

A women's or "step through" frame should fit but will hand at an angle with the rear wheel considerably lower than the front. Play around with the contact points between bike frame and rack to see if there is a better hanging method. Another solution is to buy what is known as a virtual top-tube, a add-on bar that acts as an extra frame piece allowing all frames to mount on a rack

it could possible. it didn't line up well with the ones on my bikes frame. there is a clamp ring setup that comes with it so you can attach it just above (this is what i did) not all frames have rack attach points so i imagine this system was designed to mediate that issue.
