Bought this unit for my wife's bike. I needed a way to secure her bike (down tube frame) in the trunk. The device makes a pretty solid impression. Once the clamps are in place around the headset/handlebar post and around the frame under the seat, the rack post hook slides right over it, creating downward pressure that holds the handlebars and bike securely in place. I don't understand how a bike with these handlebars can detach from the rack after the clamp is installed. I hope I don't know. I use a Swagperson carrier and plan on using a simple ratchet strap when towing as an added feature to keep the guy riding behind me from bumping into my bike if he decides to pull away. I'd rather drag him half a mile than damage his car.
