Adapting Thule Big Mouth Bike Rack to 2011 Subaru Outback OEM load bars
Question:
Will the Thule ProRide attach? If not, what will? Thanks!

Expert Reply:
According to my Thule representative, the Thule ProRide XT, part # TH598004 is compatible with the Thule square bars and Yakima round bars, as well as your 2011 Subaru Outback factory bars. Additionally, it includes an adapter kit to be mounted to the roof rack directly.
Sometimes it's appropriate to have a different kind of mount depending on your bike. Thule also offers a comparable rack called the UpRide, part # TH599000, that is a wheel mount, rather than frame mount, if you'd prefer to mount the bike that way.
