This device joins a bicycle to a hitch mechanism, which in turn joins to a trailing carrier (trailer). The invention is a consequence of the unique design parameters of the trailer mentioned and the fact that no other product addresses the situation. The mechanism consists of two (2) steel v-blocks welded to studs which are threaded into an extending arm body such that the plot of the v-block integrates with various bicycle frames, specifically the left chainstay and left rearstay. This unit is clamped to the bicycle by means of two (2) bolts passing through the arm body, frame and into the lugs welded to a backing bar. Tightening of the bolts draws the backing bar towards the arm body, clamping the frame into the v-block. Both the v-block and backing bar have hard rubber pads bonded to the critical surfaces to protect the bicycle from abrasion and to prevent the transmission of shock from extreme motion. When installed the entire unit will be on the same vertical and horizontal plane as the bicycle.
