I see that the major concern was getting the strap tight enough on the handle bar. Will this work on a standard *road* bike handlebar?

I can tell you this much, on a mountain bike, riding a very rough ride over rocks, it stays on rock solid. The phone popped out of the grip once when I threw my bike, but the handle bar grip has been solid

I am not sure what you mean by road bike handlebar, but on the harley I was it was attached to the bare handlebar and not once it sliped. It is very tight and to make it so you pull the strap via that large round hole so you get a lot of leverage. I hope it helps.

It was a pain to get it tight enough so it wouldn't move around so I had a friend pull on it while I held the handlebars. Yes it fit on my road bike.

On my Boulevard, it clicked in tightly and easily. As JC mentioned, there is a finger hole for pulling. I didn't need to cut the strap, it's long enough to fit and short enough to be out f the way.

Yes it will be, but be sure to cut the strap long enough so you have leverage and can pull it tight. I made a mistake and cut it a bit too short which makes it hard to pull it tight.

No. It won't stay put. There are handlebar mounts designed specifically for bikes.

Seems like it will fit on most bike handlebars - has rubber spacers for smaller bars, but fits on my bars (road bike) with room to spare.

No. It will fit standard road bike 1 1/8" threadless steerer. The steerer sleeve on the stem is not adjustable nor does it allow for shims, as it does for the handlebar sleeve.

Depending on the diameter of the bar you are mounting to it might work. If the bar is oval but the same diameter as the handlebars I would try but if the bar is smaller or larger than regular handlebars it will not tighten up and be secure.

nope it wont, even on the handle bar of my yamaha FZ1 fits a lil big, so i don't is going to work on something smaller

I have it installed on a relatively lightweight vintage road bike. It works, but as a safety precaution, I always make sure I am straddling the bike and standing over the top tube first, with my hands on the handlebar, before my son gets on. Similarly, I always make sure he dismounts from the bike first before I dismount.

Depends on your handlebars. It doesn't work on my road bike. The handlebars have to be round.

Not sure but I believe it would not be very comfortable -u may have to wrap some type of cloth around your thumb -I ve put mine on handle bars and it close to my thumb -work s fine on bar-good luck.

Leather straps fit around my daughter's townie bike with no problems :) good luck!

It should. Most road bikes have that same size handlebar mounting bracket thing. If you want to double check, typing in the serial and or model number in Google could probably produce the specs. It's a great bargain and it's about as heavy as a pair of socks so you'd be making a great purchase. It's also solidly made. Hope this helps. :-)

Hi Elizabeth, I don't think you'll have any problem. I recently did a road trip with two adult road bikes, a Trek and a Specialized, and the bike rack worked great. It's a very solid design, when all the straps are tightened down it's just like having a hitch-mounted rack.

If the handlebars are either 7/8" or 1" diameter it will work...may look funny though....

No, I think it's too big. If you attach it to the handle bars the bag will hit your front wheel. This bag is tall, I don't think it would work.

Yes it will work just fine. The seat post strap is adjustable and does not need to be super tight. I have the seat post suspension as well and I have zero problems.

There is a hex drive on top of the handlebar as you lok down at it. Tighten it and that should work

My Bike is a 2013 Street Glide. I liked the Dayrunner Bag, but it fit too loosely on my Sissy Bar for my comfort. I have had a hard time finding a bag that will tighten onto this Bike's Sissy Bar.
