bike rack accessory does the trick Jul 26, 2010 I have struggled with getting my Cannondale f400 bike on the Thule car rear rack since I bought it. I even damaged the front shock boot and spent almost $50 getting it replaced. My bike does have a top bar, but the geometry is such that it just will not fit on my two-bar rack.
This very simple accessory clamps on in seconds and holds your bike level on the rack. I was surprised at its ease of use and am still mad at myself for waiting so long. As you drive down the vacation roads, you will see bikes hanging at any number of angles as people struggle to fit them on their racks.
Good job, Thule, and good job to Amazon for giving me quick, efficient service. I have used the rack twice in the last month on very long car journeys to vacation. I still hate packing and putting the bike rack on my car, but at least I can hang the bike quickly and evenly, perfectly centered to the back of my car.

Hard to open - returned Jul 11, 2010 The button to open the adapter is very hard to press. I bought a Saris that was simple and much better as a replacement.

Just what I needed Jul 02, 2010 Sturdy,easy to use. Great for getting bikes on the rack that do not have a straight across bar. Has the usual outstanding Thule design and quality.

Thule 982 Bicycle Frame Adapter Apr 29, 2010 I am very satisfied with the product; it does exactly what it was meant to do-- provide a crossbar for my woman's bicycle so that I can attach the bike to my car rack. It took me a little while to figure out how to open up the ends of the crossbar to attach to the bike since no instructions were provided (you need to push in those tiny gold buttons to release the end connectors) but once I got that down I've had no problems. I am very happy with the product and give it my full endorsement.
really helpfull part Oct 21, 2009 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.
