The Thule 1-Bike Add-On # THBRLB2 is designed to fit their own Bed Rider bike rack and is not considered a general-purpose accessory intended for use with other products. However, I did check with my contact at Saris for the size of the square tubing of their Kool Rack Pick-Up Truck-Bed-Mounted 2 Bike Carrier SATRK00.

The tubing on the Kool Rack is 1-1/4 inches x 1-1/4 inches. The Thule Bed Rider's tubing I found to be 1-1/4 x 1-1/4 inches when I measured it here at etrailer so the Thule 1-Bike Add-On # THBRLB2 should fit on the Saris carrier. Do please note that since these two manufacturers have not tested each other's products the exact fit is unconfirmed.
