I am getting a Trek x-caliber-8 Mountain bike..it has the angled center bar. Is the tube adapter required or will it work on the regular mount?

Yes, we need it for my wife's bike but maybe the angle on your bike is not as much as her Trek bike. If that is the only bike going on the rack, I guess you could, not sure, but I would want it balanced on the rack. I really like mine and it worked even with my fairly wide spare tire for my Jeep.

If it just a slight angle you won't need the adapter.. But it is definitely a must for a woman's bike ..

I think most Thule products are specific to the Thule load bars unless otherwise noted. This rack certainly seems to be, although there may be adapters available. For your application, you might consider a hitch rack if the vehicles you'll have will have hitches. Otherwise, you may need to look to vehicles that you can put your bike IN rather than ON. Good luck!

I have the same setup on my mid-range Specialized hybrid... I didn't think there would be enough threads either but it was fine. I also purchased a second hitch to my son's Gary Fisher mountain bike and it worked fine too.

The tires sit in the tray, so you do not need a cross bar adapter. Just secure the bike frame to the upright part of the rack to secure it in place.

Sorry, but I only have experience with Adams Trail a Bikes and the connection system they use. Have you checked the Trek site or check with a dealer if one is close by. Sorry not more help,

I have a Trek hybrid and looks like it would support a tube about twice the thickness of mine. My bar looks to be about 1.5 inch diameter.

I have a Trek and my husband has a Specialized (not specialty), and the hitch fits both. I think it's a pretty universal fitting.

Not if put on correctly. I had flat bars installed on my trek bike and the guy who did them for me put this on for me. I really like this gadget!

You should be ok without an adapter. I have 1 women's and 1 men's bike that I transport on mine without issues.

I have not used this mount while mountain biking - hopefully other folks will be able to help.

just got mine, it did not come with the smaller tube adapter, which I was pissed about, but it does seem to be a genuine go pro accessory. I think the adapters were added later on in the product development, and this might have been an older version of the handlebar mount. I bought the mount on Amazon from USAsouthernStar FYI.. Oh well, I guess I'll be making my own adaptor out of rubber tubing.

Depends on how handy you are. Best thing to do, is buy it (I love mine) and then see if you can modify it from the round tube to yours. It is designed to fit flat and round crossbars. Worst that can happen is you'll have to send it back.

You need a straight bar across your bike or a special attachment to fit it onto this rack. Our girls bike did not work, we had to buy a straight bar to attach to the bike.

It will, but Alllen Sports also makes an adapter bar that attaches easily to bikes with a dropped center tube and allows them to ride more level and securely. I bought one for my lady friend's bike and it works great. I suggest you buy both the rack and the additional adapter.

The Yakima mount on the Copperhead is basically a quick release. If your front wheel goes on and of with a quick release, and from the looks of your manual that is the case,then this should fir your bike. Goofy question, but why don't you call Yakima.? Their customer service is excellent.

It depends on what type of valve stem your mountain bike uses. Is it the Presta type valve stem or Schrader valves? If its Presta then NO this will not work for you. Hope that helps
