 "Not secure" 2009-02-15
By IJK (Greenwich, NY)
Prior to purchase the company's Customer Service agent told me the security of the bike would be maintained since the opening mechanism was located in the center of the bar and would be covered by the locking mechanism of the carrier itself. However this is NOT the case as the opening mechanisms are both exposed once the bikes are loaded and locked into place. After I received the item and called them again it I was told by customer service they knew nothing re the item as they did not manufacture it themselves and i needed to talk to a tech. Once I heard from the tech, about a day later he confirmed that it cannot be secured. It works but is not secure, so if you intend to leave the bike on the rack w/o you being present the bike will need to be secured by other means.

 "Still doesn't help much with kids bikes" 2008-08-14
By M. Anthony (Camden, DE)
None of our kids' bikes would fit on the swagman bike rack we got as a gift so we had to get one of these. The problem is that the bar is too long to fit the way they tell you to attach it. In fact it barely would have worked on our adult bikes, if we had needed to use the adapter. My husband had to figure out a different way to put it on. It's not a simple way but it at least allows us to take the kids' bikes.

 "I should have ordered these years ago!" 2008-06-29
By M. VanBuskirk (Rochester, MI USA)
Great product. I should have ordered them much earlier. We have been lifting and loading 3 of 4 mountain bikes on the lower bar and upside down for years. This adapter makes it so much easier! I ordered 2 different ones and we like this one best because of the locking feature on each end. I will be ordering 1 more.

It is easy to use, you don't need any tool or anything.

 "User Review: Thule 982 Bicycle Frame Adapter for Strap/Hitch Carriers" 2009-07-11
By JWO (California)
I purchased two Thule 982 Bicycle Frame Adapters for Thule 964 Revolver 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack from the Amazon retailer, Rack Attack. PROS: 1) Because of the numerous different bicycle frame configurations, it will quickly become apparent to the strap/hitch carrier user that mounting the bicycles level is difficult. Attaching the Thule 982 Bicycle Frame Adapter ends to the bike's handle bar and seat stems will make this procedure much easier. For this application, the product seems well designed. CONS: 1) One of adapters I received from the Amazon retailer had rusted bolts while still inside the packaging! However, shortly after being exposed to the ouside environment during use, all the lock bolts on both adaptors quickly rusted. At the stated MSRP, stainless steel hardware would have been the fair and better choice. 2) The rubberized coating on the metal ends of the adaptors will ultimately tear or wear down due to use, UVA exposure, etc.. As a result, the exposed metal ends of the adaptors could damage the bike's finish. Take care to protect the rubberized coating during use and storage. In conclusion, it is my opinion that the Thule 982 Frame Adaptor is both a well designed and needed accessory for the strap/hitch carrier user.

 "Too big for kids bikes" 2009-07-09
By p bear (Chicago, IL)
I bought two of these because my kids bikes do not have a top bar. The product description says to attach it to the seatpost and headset but since the adapter is too long, I had to attach it to the seatpost and the handle bar. The bikes rest on the carrier at a steep angle, but it still works. Just be aware of this if you have small bikes.

By girls can tell (philadelphia, pa United States)
this simple attachment does exactly what's it's supposed to. it works well and fits my frame as it should.

 "Helpful tool for small bike" 2009-07-05
By Flaco (CHILE)
If your sons bike is not the standard adult and does not have the "typical" setup, you wont be able to carry it without this adapter. Easy to use, hide and it does its job.

 "Works Great!" 2009-06-17
By K. Payne (Janesville, WI USA)
It was a little hard to figure out how to use it initially, because it didn't come with any directions. But after I figured it out it worked great! The only thing is that you can't use the stablizing part of my bike hitch when you use it, but the bike didn't really blow around without that. I would recommend it to anyone!
