Fitting Bike with 15mm Thru-Axle on Kuat Trio Roof Bike Rack
Question:
Hi! I have a Salsa Timberjack. I’m not understanding the spacing for this kuat trio rack. Will my bike fit without the adapter? Thanks !

From some research I did online it looks like the Salsa TimberJack you referenced in your question has a 15mm thru-axle.
To install your bike on the Kuat Trio Roof Bike Rack # TR02 you will need to remove the 9mm quick release skewer and place your bike's existing thru-axle skewer through the chrome cylinder on the Kuat Trio # TR02. Now place your bike on the rack, hand tighten the nut, and clamp the quick release lever down.
I attached the review video for the Kuat Trio Roof Bike Rack # TR02 for you to take a look at.
