The adapter device has a hollow tubular cross member adapted to be received between the two spaced apart fork portions of the bike, the cross member being adapted to receive a rod, such as the through axle of the bike, and to be held onto the fork by fastening means. Projecting at about a right angle from the exterior of and near each end of the cross member is a clevis like side member, the free end of which has a U-shaped notch for receiving a transverse rod provided with threaded ends normally present on the mount-type bicycle holding/transporting system. The threaded ends are adapted to receive fastening means for securing the adapter device to the transporting system.
