The dual arm mounting style allows for an even better bike fit as it, like the rotating cradle, minimizes the need for top-tube bike adapters, and it also adjusts to fit bikes with larger frames. To mount a bike into a carrier of this style, the top crossbar of the bike is placed into two cradles, one on each of the bike rack's arms. Then it is secured to the cradles with rubber straps that adjust to the size of the bike frame. A women's bike, because of the slanted crossbar, will sit at a more severe angle on bike rack of this style, so ground clearnace may be an issue. Not only does this mounting style offer a better bike fit, but it also offers more stability as it secures the bikes at two different points on the frame. Some of the racks built with the dual arm feature will include, or have available, a third cradle that works to prevent the bikes from swaying back and forth offering further protection for the bikes and the vehicle.
