Bike Rack Recommendation for Triathlon Bike with Deep Section Wheels
Question:
For your triathlon bikes that have deep section wheels the Thule T2 bike rack part # TH9034XT would be a fantastic option. The wheel trays can slide to your narrower wheelbase easily and the wheel trays are designed to accomodate taller and wider wheel setups like what you can see in the picture I attached. I also attached an install video for this rack for you to check out as well. You'll want a 2 inch hitch installed on your 2018 Subaru Forester like the Draw Tite part # 75876 installed as well. This hitch is a confirmed fit for your vehicle and unlike the Curt hitches it does not require a stabilizer strap when carrying a non-supported load like a bike rack.
