Thule Roof-Rack-Mount Bike Carrier That Fits Factory Bars on 2017 Subaru Crosstrek
Question:
What adaptor kits do I need?
asked by: Ken
Expert Reply:
There is no adapter to allow mounting the Thule Big Mouth bike carrier TH599XTR to oval bars unless they are Thule's AeroBlade or Rapid Aero bars. In that case you would use Thule adapter # Xadapt2.
For a carrier that is a direct fit to the Subaru crossbars (if you have the Subaru roof rack) use the Thule UpRide # TH599000. This carrier holds the bike at the front wheel. I have linked a video review of this carrier for you.
All roof-mount bike racks for factory bars are shown on the linked page.
