This works fine for putting my girlfriend's Schwinn bike on the rack, but the design of the bike is not the most friendly for this bike beam, its almost like it should be able to angled or curved to allow for it to attach to the bike. The main way the bike beam attaches to the bike forces the bike to sit maybe 6 inches off the ground forcing us to remove the front tire of the bike, which is not really a big issue, as the front time has a latch mechanism that allows us to remove the tire without any tools.
