Do you know if the mount will fit oversized downtubes? I have a Cannondale and they do not use the prototypical downtube size... thoughts? Danke

Thanks for the inquiry! Yep, that mount should fit on oversized down tubes. Have a good one!

I purchased my unit some time ago. Upon inspection, I took it to a machine shop to have the upper hook enlarged. (My Specialized SL2 down tube was massive, so the upper hook was modified.) If I remember correctly, the hook was about 1.75 to 2". For some carbon frames, this may be a problem.

Not without some modifications. Also, depending on how your bike's rear wheel is configured (i.e. dual suspension, etc.) positioning of the mount will vary. extending this unit may have it sticking out to far when collapsed. These are just some things to consider. Best bet is to go t your local Bike shop and see what they recommend. They may even have something for the 29er.

I have the same rack, all I did design a longer stinger to allow room for the bike rack. This rack is on my motorhome ,I use the Velcro straps then rap a cable lock around bikes and the ladder and holds well. The mount for my rack 2"x21/4" with a 3/4 bolt to crank it down. Jim ..jimgil.@aol.com

I'm not sure if you are asking about the width of the mounting bracket or the size/diameter of the handlebar it will fit on. The mounting bracket, that fits over the handlebars is adjustable to various sizes by using rubber shims wrapped around the bar. This is adurale bag and mount. Both my wife and I use them and really load them down, without having them rotate on the bar.

I love this mirror! You get a really good view of a large area behind you, though you do need to have your left leg at the top of the pedal stroke. I have mine mounted to a Cannondale CAAD 10 road frame which has a pretty large diameter down tube and has pretty similar dimensions to my old Cannondale mountain bike frame (1992 vintage) which is will also fit. Keep in mind that you won't be able to see behind you if you have a rack on the bike and mount a bag on the same side as you mount the mirror - presumably on the left.

Would not work on the oversized downspout. Unless you could find reducers but I have never seen reducers for downspouts.

I measured the inside of the hook at 2 1/8" so if your downtube is 2" or less you should be fine. For example it does not fit on my full suspension mt bike. Hope this helps you!

just got mine, it did not come with the smaller tube adapter, which I was pissed about, but it does seem to be a genuine go pro accessory. I think the adapters were added later on in the product development, and this might have been an older version of the handlebar mount. I bought the mount on Amazon from USAsouthernStar FYI.. Oh well, I guess I'll be making my own adaptor out of rubber tubing.

I have a 20' frame Diamondback 29" bike and it fits well. I did need to use a 1/2" wire clamp on one side, but this is by far the best rack I have ever seen. I cannot tell you if it will fit your bike without slight modifications, but would suggest you try it. You can always return it if it will not work.

this should do the trick: SHIFTER MOUNT OR8 DOWNTUBE ADPTR 31.8/28.6 BKand there is a number of more classically styled one, just search for "downtube shifter clamp on bosses"

the mounts cater for most standard handle bars. They also come with 2 sets of spacers which you should be able to fit around most handle bars. i didnt use the spacers as my handle bars are shaped/slanted, so a little piece of rubber works 100% for my ktm.

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

The universal baseplate has so many different mounting options I would be surprised if it wouldn't work on your bike. But you can always check with the manufacture

I've yet to find a bike that this mounts and stays mounted on without modification! I've used and modded this or one similar to it with many types of bikes. And all of them had to be modded, cut, riveted and utilized with some bent aluminum tabs to make it work properly.

Based on the picture I got back from Google (https://www.google.com/search?q=jeff+jones+h+bars&biw=1899&bih=1072&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=uPwFVauTPIeeggTW1IL4Cg&ved=0CC4QsAQ#imgdii=_&imgrc=OejP9M8yaFxQcM%253A%3BGDmCHk00WLqOqM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2014%252F04%252FJones-Loop-H-Bar-cockpit.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.gravelbike.com%252F%253Fp%253D3003%3B2292%3B739) it looks like it should work. You just need about 4 - 5 inches of straight handlebar out front in order for it to attach. On my dropbar handlebar the mount just attaches on either side of the stem - and then it just hangs right off the front. Hope that helps, Tim

Yes James I am sure it well...I have a small frame women's bike so I had to order the long extenders for the front of the mount. But my friend has 2 larger mens bikes and it was perfect for hers...
