Be forewarned: this adapter might be too small for your bike!

It is too small to fit around the monostay on my Trek Navigator 300 comfort/hybrid bike. The "U" bar would need to have arms that were about least 1/4 inch longer.

Your bike might be fine. My Trek has thick frame bars.

The flat bracket that goes around the back of the monostay and attaches to the rack is made of such a soft metal that as I screwed the bolts into the horseshoe shaped piece it simply bent and could not be made completely tight. When I attach something to my bike I like to think that it's going to stay put and not wiggle around. I gave it two stars because it's probably okay for light loads.

Great so far, only about 50 miles of riding. I ride a tandem and had to mount the bracket about half way up on the stoker seatpost but the rubber coating on the loop sticks well. Rear rack is very stable with this setup. The small pad between the C bracket and the seatpost slips off and leaves a gooey residue, but not a huge issue. Overall very good, and if it holds up and doesn't break I would give it four stars. It's a bummer paying more in shipping than the item cost, but I couldn't even find a bike shop that knew what a mono-stay adapter is, never mind actually selling it.
