How Do I Secure a Women's Bike or an Alternate-Frame Style Electric Bike to My Bike Rack?
Updated 03/05/2024 | Published 05/28/2021 >
Question:
We have a mens and womens bike right now, and may get e-bikes in the future. My concern is the womens bikes dont have a horizontal bar for the hook to get hold of. Solutions?

The best solution is to purchase the Swagman Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Electric, Step Through, and Cruiser Bikes # S57FR for the non-electric women's bike and any electric bike that has a step-through or alternative frame. The adapter bar will give you a straight horizontal plane to attach and secure your bike to the bike rack.
It must be noted that some bike racks do not require bike frame adapter bars because the attaching points are more versatile. If you want me to confirm if your bike racks needs an adapter bar for your women's or electric bike with step-through or alternative frame styles, I would be happy to assist you.
