Replacement Wheel Strap for Thule Prologue XT Roof Bike Rack

Question

Question:

Hello, would Thule Car Rack Replacement Wheel Strap - 8537006 fit the Prologue 516XT fork mount rack which has a T-channel and normally comes with strap# 753-3001? I like that the 7006 strap has a metal clasp instead of plastic like the 3001 has, thank you.

Expert Reply:

Wheel Strap # 853-7006 will not work with your Thule Prologue XT TH516XT you will need to use Wheel Strap Assembly # 753-3001.

The reason for that is the way the strap assembly attaches; as you can see by the accompanying photo of this strap assembly on the Prologue XT it has a specific mounting attachment that the other strap does not have.
