Can you mount this to the handle bar stem (which twists and turns)? I do not have any usable section on the frame of my bike below the handlebar stem.

Yes! It should be mounted there and NOT on the frame. If you were to mount it on the frame you couldn't turn your handle bars without hitting the seat.

It mounts to the stem of the handlebars, not the frame. So it will also turn when you turn the handlebars. I believe you need at least 1" of stem exposed on the handlebar.

You can and should only mount it to the handle bar stem. The iBert seat needs to move the handle bars or else you won't have any room to maneuver the bike

Maria...Is this happening on turns? If so it is because as you make the corner your handlebars turn and ultimately 'dip' as you go through the corner. That feature doesn't have an option to enable/disable. You'd think the folks that design these things would think beyond the dashboard and consider it may be mounted on a bicycle, motorcycle, or something. I'm guessing by now you've found a better solution, but if not...just don't make turns...lol.

It's probably too wide, but might just barely fit that space. I have a Suzuki SV650S, and resolved the problem by disassembling the handlebar mount (eliminating the u-clamp)and drilling 2 holes thru the aluminum plate which houses the ignition switch and spans the two forks. I then attached the mount to the plate using two 1.5" screws, lock washers and nuts. Works great, and takes up less space. Did the same thing on a friend's GSXR600. Mount it as far left or right on the plate as possible, so as not to block the gauges. Measure twice, drill once. :)

Yes you can. This bike mount only works on bikes with Thin Downtube. if yours it's thicker, it will not work.

not sure...I have not mounted it yet to bike. I don't plan on mounting it either.

The mounting bracket is about 40 mm long. So if you're stem is shorter than that it might be an issue

you can...i did the same thing with mine and it works fine. you cant tell by the pictures, both ends of the bar have hole in them so you can bolt the bar to the brackets to keep the bar from spinning. I only bolted one end of my bar and it works perfect.

I have no clue I tried and broke it off the handle bar where I mounted it, luckily the bike I use has 10 speeds to adjust the resistance

Not with the mount as it comes with the bell. It is made for a narrow handlebar. You might be able to mount it with extended screws.

I doubt it will work, that mount is meant to be placed on bicycle handlebars and once it is tightened with zip ties does not allow it to rotate.

My wife has a Schwinn Midmoor 700c bike that is hooked on the top of the s shaped frame, there is some adjustment left. You could not hook on the lowest tube where the crank is located. Her bike has traveled over 6,000 miles on the sportrack without problem.

Yes, you can rotate the clamp to accommodate any style of bike so that it hangs the way you want it to. Nice bike rack, I love it. Simple to use.

Its not designed for being mounted on the handlebars.. But I imagine you can buy an adapter at a hardware store or find any other creative solution..

I couldn't either. Take it with you to a bike repair shop & ask them if it's right for your bike. It wouldn't attach to mine. I returned it.

You should be able to as long as it has the horizontal bar that goes along the back end of the bike to the back wheel. It attaches anywhere along that bar.

My husband puts his between his handle bars on his bike on the main stem. Hopefully this helps!

sorry for delay. I have straight handlebars. The clip on bracket has two clamps, one on each side of the post that the handle bars are secured to. You need about 2" on each side of center for bracket. I looked at pix of drop handlebars and from the pix, I think it is workable.
