Will the hitch work on an MTB with disc brakes?

I do not think you will have a problem as the hitch goes onto the axle through the quick release skewers. Keep in mind that this is a wide trailer and should only be used on trails and off busy roads. We used it once on the Elroy-Sparta trail in Wisconsin. I am not sure how many more times I will use it we may keep it as we have a local rail to trail path here and we can haul food for a picnic. Otherwise we may want to sell it.

It attaches to the rear axle on the left side, under the nut. I understand it should work with a Quick Release. I doubt a disc brake should interfere.

John all I can tell you that the hitch connects to the side of the bike frame and if installed properly you shyould not have any problems. The hitch I found is user friendly, and the trailer is of excellent quality. I use the trailer almost on a daily basis.

It may, but it'll rattle some as it is not a perfect fit. I've gotten used to it as I had no choice, but in the future I would go with a bike rack that's the same size as the hitch.

Possibly. But you would have to have the front wheel in one holder and the rear wheel in the other holder. There might not be enough clearance for the disc brake

Yes it will, the height adjustments are adequate on the head, as well as the angle adjustments, well made hitch!!

Probably, the only question would be is do you have disc brakes on the rear. If you do them no it would not. Other then that as long as your bike has the mounting holes, this rack should work. I forget which bike we put this rack on but, I do remember having to drill a hole and tap it to accommodate one of our bike/rack combinations.

Will it work on the rear wheel of a mountain bike with disc brakes (so I can use the bike in the trainer or the road)?

it should. it has a setting for both canti and v brakes. and discs will work with 1 of those settings.

I don't know for sure. I have a Kona Sutra with disk brakes. It really just depends on where the mounts are on the fork. I used washers for spacers, just enough to keep the rack from touching the fork and paint. The lower mount is on the front edge of the fork and I had to shift the lower rack piece that goes from the mount to the lower left in the picture to the outside to get the clearance I needed. Not hard to do, just took some time to figure it out.

It should. I put it on my Specialized Rock Hopper with disc brakes. It goes on the opposite side of the chain and cable

Not sure, I ride a canondale and my husband has a Trek hybrid. Ours fit facing opposite directions. The rack space is 2 3/4 inches for the tires. I do not know how the disc brakes would impact the fit. This rack is not the highest quality but was better then leaning our bikes against a wall.

I looked at the page and "V-brake compatible" I would not recommend use with disk brakes That being said you could try calling Shimano tech support Shimano American Corp. (949) 951-5003 to answer application question I would not trust a bike shop employee with this question

I have disc brakes on my bike, no problem there. I do not know about a rear rack as my bike will not allow for one. Hope that helps! It's a great product!

Should be fine , it's a great hitch! Bikes are more secure and they don,t bang into each other.

You don't see very many mountain bikes with fenders. That being said, if the fender sits close to the tire then this rack would probably work. This rack is for models with disc brakes, but that just means it is a little wider and has spacers that are part of the rack to clear the caliper. It will work fine on non disc brake bikes, but it costs a bit more than the one for non disc brake equipped bikes. . The rear stays on a mountain bike can be a bit wider than those on a road bike, this may work to your advantage, but you may need to trim the spacers. The rack I see on most mountain bikes only attaches to the seat tube, Topeak makes a model like this. You don't see very many mountain bikes with fenders.

Because the stand holds the bike up by attaching to the frame, not the hub, it should work fine with disc brakes. I have used the stand quite a bit and it is very helpful when doing minor repairs.

This should work with any bike with a disk brakes. Things to check: Thickness of the disc to make sure that the lock slides in.

I agree with SPC. While I don't have disc brakes on any of my bikes, I don't see why it wouldn't work. There are two "pincers" to the rear frame and there seems to be some limited top/bottom - forward/rear adjustment to the frame anchor points.
