Bike Frame Adapter

R-ADA-01

The Rola Bike Frame Adapter helps you carry bikes that don’t have a traditional straight top tube, including step-through and sloping-frame bikes. It fits between the seatpost and headset area to create a stable “carry bar” so the bike mounts more securely on mast-style carriers. With an adjustable length and a 20kg load rating, it’s a simple add-on that makes transporting different bike styles easier.

Compatible with the Rola Hitch Mount Bike Carrier range (2, 3 & 4 bike).
