Want to figure it out yourself? Use our detailed guide
If you’re technically inclined or know your bike’s axle and dropout type, you can use this guide to find the right adapter on your own.
We’ll show you exactly what to measure, what to look for, and how to choose the correct adapter.
Identify Your Axle Type
What kind of dropout does your bike have?
There are several dropout types, but these two are the most important when it comes to trailer mounting:
Do you need an adapter?
Quick Release
Bolt On Axle
Thru Axle
Standard Dropout
No adapter needed

Hooded Dropout

Safer Connection with the Right Adapter
If your bike requires an adapter, the trailer will be more securely attached with the right one. In the example shown, a hooded dropout is used with an adapter for a proper fit.
Find the Right Adapter for Your Bike
Once you’ve identified your axle and dropout type, the next step is to choose the exact adapter for your bike. Select the right diameter and thread pitch.
As the diagram above shows, one benefit of using an adapter is that the trailer hitch sits slightly farther from the frame. This is especially useful when the hitch arm would otherwise interfere with the derailleur or rear wheel.

⚠️ Important – for 12 mm thru axle users
Before installing your new axle adapter, be sure to compare it with your original axle.
- The thread type must be the same
- The length should be within ±2 mm
- It should thread in smoothly by hand
- Some of our adapters include washers/spacers to adjust the effective length. Add or remove these as needed.
