Thule Ride-On Adapter

Thule Ride-On Adapter description

Thule's Ride-On Adaptor is the middleman between your car's factory rack and almost any Thule Bike carrier. If you don't want to invest in an entire Thule rack, you can simply get the Ride-On Adaptor and save tons of cash. The adaptor comes with universal mounting hardware that attaches to most factory racks. It comes with 32in load bars so there's room for two bikes. Strong, level load bars provide an ideal platform for mounting your bike. It works with the Thule Criterium and Big Mouth upright carriers as well as V2, Velo Vise, and Long Tray Classic fork mount carriers.

Save the money and buy the complete system for your vehicle. Not the typical THULE product quality. I am scared to use it with MY bikes. I have 4 THULE rack systems on 4 vehicles. I can't get much information from THULE on load ratings for this product.

This rack worked great as a cost effective measure to carry a 3rd bike on my roof. One of the other riders had an old Thule roof rack that would not fit the factory racks of his new car nor mine. He's planning on getting these adapters also. Now that I have them, I plan to get a newer model roof rack. This is better than having to totally replace my factory racks in addtion to the cost of the roof rack. I normally do not need access to carry a third bike.My only wish is that Thule would make all their items universal to factory racks. Bottom line: This is a great purchase if you already have a Thule product that does not fit factory racks.
