Hint #2: When loading shorter bikes and longer bikes, load the shorter bikes first. Adjust the skewer bar so that the rear wheel rests on it behind the rear axle. The larger bike will benefit from the fact that the top bar is angled up, and will still catch the rear wheel of the larger bike, forward of the rear axle.
Notice the position of the center skewer! It can be raised along the main support post to accommodate bikes large and small, on the rack at the same time!
Helpful Hints and Tricks! Hint #1: When loading the first bike, load it to the left side of the skewer bar. This way the chain sprocket and chain guard will be away from the stabilizer bar. Move skewer bar up or down to avoid being in line with crank arm.
