Videos are provided as a guide only. Refer to manufacturer installation instructions and specs for complete information.
Today we'll be reviewing the Hollywood Racks bike adapter bar for alternative frame bikes, part number is HRBA-PRO. This is also available in the extra large version, part number HRBA-PRO-XL. The adapter bar is going to allow you to adapt your women's, children's or nontraditional bike frame to fit a wide variety of bike racks. The bar is constructed of a sturdy steel with a black powder coat finish which is nice to hold up against rust and corrosion. The bar also features a limited lifetime warranty. Telescoping the bar will allow you to achieve a range of different bike frames from 15-1/4 to 28 and 3/4. In a fully extended position, the bar will lock into place with the push button.
Pressing the button will allow you to slide it back in to make a smaller adjustment. Pushing the gold button down is going to allow you to swing the lever open so you can use the clamp. The non-marking plastic clamps are going to help to protect your bike's finish. There is both a larger and smaller collar. The larger collar offers an inside dimension of 3-1/2 inches in length and the width comes to almost 2-1/4.
For the smaller collar our length is 3-1/4 inches and the width is about 1-1/2 inches. We'll now fit the bar to our nontraditional style bike. We'll start by extending it a little and then you'll want to open up your clamps. We'll hook it around the seat post and then move to the handle bar post and repeat the process. You can then press it together. We'll get our bike loaded onto the rack.
For demonstration purposes, we're going to load it on to the slot closest to us but keep in mind at home if you're only hauling 1 or 2 bikes, you want to load them in the closest opening to the vehicle. We'll secure all of our straps and we're ready to hit the road. With our bike loaded, we'll go ahead and take it out on our test course so you can see how it's going to look in action. We have our slalom which will show you the side to side action. The alternating bumps is going to give you an idea of the twisting motion. The solid bumps will show you the up and down movement of the rack.
That concludes our review of the Hollywood Racks bike adapter bar part number HRBA-PRO. .

works as described. A bit difficult to unhook from bike. Width of bar makes it a bit too wide to fit nicely into bike rack mounts (Hollywood F2 over the top). 414427
The Bike attachment bar works great for attaching a ladies bike onto your bike rack. My wife's bike has a very large V shape to it that made it hard to attach to the swagman dispatch bike rack. 423390
This is a great product. I have a 2006 Lexus RX400H. The fit is ideal as it completely takes the spoiler out of the fitting equation. First time out of the box it took a bit of head scratching to get it set up and secured in position but the instructions were clear. Subsequent fittings are a breeze - no more than a couple of minutes and the rack is fastened, the bike loaded and on my way. No hesitation in recommending this to folks with SUVs and spoilers. 194051
Great product. Keeps the woman's bike straight on the rack. The locks are tight and hold the handlebars and the saddle in place. Solidly build. Every time we go on a bike trip, I put it on my wife's bike. Bicycle racks do not take women's bikes in account so this bar is the best alternative out there. 211516
Just as advertised, easy ordering, fast delivery, great price! I think other sites finally has some competition. :) 492847
Quick delivery and products in perfect shape. Multiple different items included in box. Packed well. A small thing but gave the impression that etrailer does things right. Very happy. 564978
The bike rack is superb. I had to order a set of replacement straps because I did not realize that over time, vibration would cause the spokes to cut into the rubber on the straps. Now, I just make sure the straps are not rubbing against the spokes. The rack held up well from Pennsylvania to Florida and back with two bikes in it, and is easy to put on and off the trailer hitch on my Silverado pickup. I haven't used the frame adapter very often, simply because I found a workaround. But when I do use it, it works quickly, simply and as advertised. 295988
The adapters are all about the same. Hollywood is as good as the rest. They are designed to solve the step through bike frame problem when loading bike to hitch carrier. The design is average and needs improvement in my opinion. Etrailer does a fine job shipping and followup. 458188
Needed a platform style rack for heavy E-bike that is a step through model with fenders. This severely limited the choice of racks. Found one that said it would work and it did but because the center support grabbed the frame so low, it wobbled quite a bit and rubbed against the chain guard. This adapter bar solved the problem. Ordinarily the bike hangs from this type device so rubbing on the painted frame isn't an issue but in my use It is being pushed down by the center clamp and rode over the seat post onto the frame.. I solved this with a white spacer ring I made (see picture) so the adapter bar couldn't ride down and rub the frame. It's a very solid nicely made piece of equipment. probably overkill for my use 425619
Very solid adapter. Works well Just got it but it looks like it's built to last, very pleased with the quality. Quick delivery too. 274921

worked, just as advertised 654632
Functioned as advertised and fit easily around my women's 1975 step-through Schwinn. The product has a real no-brainer design that is secure. I have no reason to question its ability to hold my bike on the rack regardless of road condition or reasonable driving speed. 636916
We have not used the bike rack yet, but have put it on our car to make sure it fits. So far so good. Excellent service. thank you. 635792

Need this use a Hollywood platform rack with a Rad City Step Thru ebike. Easy to use and works perfectly. 598842
Seems like a good product but I do believe some soft cushioning will be required to prevent any unnecessary rubbing. 587892

Great product. Keeps bike level and doesn't scratch paint. 501016
Easy to use - just click ends into place and the bike is ready for mounting. It has simplified the mounting for a ladies' bike on our rack, and can also be used as a carry handle. 490032

Excellent quality. Didn't need for my bike. May use in the future. 224216
Solves the problem with carrying a beach bike with a non-standard frame design. Works great. 221750
Even though it is still a bit awkward it is the bike not the carry bar. The bar lets me carry the bike safely and securky.
