Ideal for any 1 " OD bike rack that doesn't come with a sway bar

I have an Allen 2 bike rack that doesn't have sway bars. I spent a lot of time searching the internet for an aftermarket solution and settled on this one. They are very strong and seem to hold the bike in place very well. I only had to modify/cut the PVC spacers that were on the post to accommodate them and ensure the brackets stay in place. or back.

Pros
  • Rugged finish
Cons
  • not sure

Works much better than expected

I had an issue with the front of my mountain bike coming out of the mount along with the 937 rack and I figured it wouldn't hurt to get one of these. If you follow the instructions carefully and make sure the part is tight, it will work as it should. The front of my bike no longer moves. I have a hard dick so this works. The part is designed to meet the seat tube right where it meets the top tube. So if you have a full suspension bike this may or may not work for you depending on your rear…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unbelievable price

Functional complement to the stand

I bought these to use with my Thule Roadway stand, 2 pack. I read a review that suggested possible scratches on the frame tube and decided to be proactive. I used some of the remaining protective tape and placed it over the hard plastic that the frame tube rests on. These cages are great for keeping bikes in place. I use the Thule strap that comes with the roof rack to hold the front wheel in place during transport. It's true that these frames can't be secured to the trunk so they can be…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • No performance

Works - but eats paint

Bought a pair of these for the Thule trunk. While they work, they also eat away quite a bit at the paint on the seat tube (for non-experts in bike frame anatomy, the seat tube is the vertical part of the bike frame below the seat post). I wish someone had mentioned that before I started using mine - my wife and I chewed on the paint and decals on our road and mountain bikes before realizing why. I would recommend installing some kind of soft but grippy barrier between this accessory and your…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Works great until you see the paint chipping off your bike!

Thule No-Sway Cage holds my bike in place very well. I would give it 5 stars out of 5 but it chipped the paint off my bike! As the guy said in the previous review. I wish I knew this happened because it could have easily been avoided. I put an insulated styrofoam tube on the crossbar under the seat and it works great. The paint doesn't crack! This really pissed me off because I paid a lot of money for my mountain bike and my bike manufacturer doesn't sell touch up paint! Also, I called Tula and

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Ok, but...
