Can Saris Bike Rack Lock be Used on a Thule Bike Rack
Question:
Will the 8foot Cable Lock and Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock for Saris Hitch Mounted Bike Racks work with the Thule 5 bike rack? I see the pin is threaded but I want to know if it will fit the Thule bike rack.

Expert Reply:
Bike rack manufaturers thread their hitch pins so they are specific to their racks. So the Saris lock, part # SA984, will not work on a Thule rack. For a Thule lock use part # THSTL2 for the htich pin and # TH538XT for the cable. They can then be keyed a like with lock cores # TH450200.
