prevents the handlebars from getting tangled

the cradles.

9. Wrap each strap over frame tubes thread
through cradle loop, pull snug and press Velcro
together. Wiggle each bike to ensure the straps
are secure. The cradle strap is designed to fit
many sizes of bicycle tubing and hold firmly
regardless of temperature or weather Figure I.
10. Use a BELL cable lock, a shock cord, or
rope to secure the frames and wheels of the
bicycles to ensure safe transport.
Before each use, check to ensure that ALL straps are tightened
securely, and if you are using a locking cable that it is tightly
wrapped and locked completely.
