Bike Frame Adapter Bar Recommendation that's Easiest to Use
Question:
I am thinking about getting the swagman xtc-2 hitch rack for my Subaru Forrester. I have a Electra townie step through so I believe I need a bike frame adapter. How easy is it to put this adapter on and take it off the bike?

Bike adapters are pretty easy to install and use with a couple exceptions. I really don't care for the Thule adapter bar as it is kind of a pain to use. My favorite is the Kuat part # UB01 as it is the easiest to use, best priced, and has the widest range.
