Is there a problem with handlebars rubbing the back of the RV?

Yes, there could be a problem with that depending on the size of your bikes. It rubbed on mine. But even more of a problem is the design of the rubber pieces to securely hold the bike to the rack. The straps are not well designed. They are too short and very hard to pull over the bike tube and hook. I would not recommend this rack. I now use it to hang my A frame ladder and, after we are parked, it is also used to hang wet clothes!

Not really a problem yet. Had bike on rack out to Sturgis,SD from NC and no marks.

Sure could. I pad mine and secure the bikes with several bungies. Also, depending on the ladder placement, the handlebars may protude past the edge of your RV (mine do!), but 6,600 miles last fall and no problems. Happy trails!

No, we haven't had a problem with that. They are out far enough that they don't contact the back of our RV.

no, the distance between the two bars is fixed due to the mounting places built into the roof of the CR-V. There are plastic covers snapped into the roof edging that covers the screw holes that are used to attach the racks.

I haven't had that problem. The Bike that rest on the closes rack to the car is stopped by the bar. I also use the straps extra length on the bottom strap to gently tie the two bikes to the bar so that they do not sway much. It is a lose tie not tight. We have two mountain bikes and I have not had this trouble. We have a 2010 Honda Accord.

the only issue I've had that is if you tie your bike chain around that area and peddle, you'll get tangled. I've had no issues with rubbing

I have had no problems at all. I had a bike shop do all the final adjustments after assembly and all is well. Nice bike.

I used the tool yesterday on a ride and did not have any problems. Sounds as if something is bent or is there any dirt in the tool.

hm... I don't have that problem. It seems like you have a bigger handle bar? I'd bring a screw to a local hardware store and look for a same size but longer ones. Good luck.

I have these bars and while riding there is almost no pressure on your wrists at all.. It's all in the forearm, and the wrists are only resting on the bars themselves. I suggest you buy some sort of tape before putting them on your bars because the metal clamps will scratch your handlebars, and in my opinion aren't quite tight enough by themselves. However, for the price these cant be beat.

Yes, I placed the Front handle bars on backwards and this happened. Take a good look at the front forks. They can be rotated 180 degrees once you loosen up the handlebars. That should fix your problem. Still a tight turn but manageable.

I'll ask my husband. He installed it at the RV park where we stayed last fall. We really like that handle.

I am so sorry, I have never had that problem. I would have a Schwinn expert help you with that. Sorry, and best wishes.

I would try and take the screws back out and that move the handle bars around a bit and put them back in , i had a similiar problem and thats all there was to it..Im not sure if you have tried this but im just suggesting it..Deb :)

It sounds like you didn't tighten each area enough with the provided Allen wrench. Allignment sounds off. We had to retighten a few times before the handle bars were straight.

I would say that the item is defective and should be referred to the manufacture. I have not had any problem with the one I have on my RV. Hope this helps.

I rode this bike for 55 minutes yesterday and was up all night with a backache. I usually ride an upright and have never had any back problems on the upright style.

My son rides his all over my house and in the driveway in nice weather and I have not had any problems with the bike. Have you tried checking the wires to see if there are any disconnected or broken wires?

I have never had that problem. Perhaps your's is defective. I love mine. We use it in our RV.
