Great product. Simple design and great price. Worked on a small girls bike all the way to a full sized women's flat foot bike. I measured the minimum distance between the hooks @ 21 inches and with the tubes fully extended @ a maximum of 29 inches. Max distance between the tips of the hooks is 25.5". If the distance between the outside of your seat post and the outside stem is greater than 25.5 you would have to seperate the tubes to get the hooks around the post and stem. See photos and notes.
Both rubber hook ends are coated with a high quality rubber material that is thick and will not scratch your bike. The design is simple. Basically you have two tubes that slide in and out of each other and a quick release locking mechanism like you find on the seat post of bikes. Compared in price to the other cross bar substitutes this is a good choice. The less expensive "Allen Tension Bar" has a exposed metal end that would scratch your bike and the customer reviews complain of the spring tension design pinching their fingers. The name brand thule frame adapter is listed for over $30 dollars. Would buy again and suggest to friends.

Works great, easy to install and fits both my new Diamondback and my wife's 30 year old Raleigh Sprite.

In general I am happy to have this solution for carrying my kids' bikes. The rubber coating on the bar whose purpose is to prevent scratching on the bike was quickly lacerated after just a few uses. This sucks, but I suspect will be the. Awe with any coated bar. I will now wrap the bar in tape and continue using it.
All in all, this is a useful adapter.
