I bought this item thinking that I needed it because the cross bar on my bicycle is at an angle. I was totally wrong. Most people will never need this. I talked to my local bike guru- he said they were unnecessary to carry your bike safely and he was right. I am now ebaying this item because I don’t need it.
Basically, if you want to make very very sure that your bike does not get scratched enroute while it is in your bike carrier, use this product. It will make sure that your paint doesn’t become scuffed because of friction between the bike, brake cable and bike carrier. However, if you’re like me, and you don’t mind a few tiny scratches every now and again, it is totally unnecessary.
Solid product, could hold a house up in an earthquake, totally unnecessary for the average person.

very helpful part for easy assembly in the rack (helium). The first product sent came in with rusted screws, so after contacting amazon they quickly replaced the product.

Bought this to hold my daughter’s bike on the Thule 961XT Speedway bike rack. Easy to use & allows the bike to be held securely on the rack. Held the bike firmly in place from Alabama to Boston.

If your sons bike is not the standard adult and does not have the “typical” setup, you wont be able to carry it without this adapter. Easy to use, hide and it does its job.
