Are There Longer Arms Available for My Thule Bike Rack?
Question:
Advice on replacement arm that is longer. It isn’t long enough to securely mount the bike or to lock it.
asked by: John
Expert Reply:
Typically, Thule does not make longer attachment arms. Unfortunately, the only available option is to purchase a rack to fit the diameter measurement of your Santa Cruz Tall Boy bike. From my research, your bike has a 29-inch diameter. With that measurement, I recommend the RockyMounts MonoRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # RKY10004. The MonoRail comes with a 60-pound per bike weight capacity and will be able to accommodate bikes up to 29 inches in diameter. Also, the MonoRail will be able to fit tires up to 5 inches wide. In order to confirm for sure that your bike will fit, I recommend measuring your tires' diameters before making your purchase.
