They're supposed to be compatible with anything from 16" wheels to 28" wheels.
I used the rack as advised, but this was the problem - the front wheel wouldn't sit deep enough in the slot for the bar to get all the way over the wheel. No problem for MTB or BMX users. It seemed fairly "secure", i even got off at the stop before the freeway to check on it and it seemed "ok" but when I got off, it was just barely hanging on. Maybe defective?? Do you secure your bike in any additional way?
