Will Thule Flat Top Ski Carrier Fit on Square Bars?
Question:
I’d like to mount a Thule 872 Fairing and/or a 724 ski carrier to a Lolo bike rack - if these adapters can fit a square-ish bar, they’d work for me - do they fit a squareish bar?

Expert Reply:
It really depends in the dimensions of the bars. For the Thule AirScreen XT Fairing # TH82WV it simply clips around bars and is a universal fit, so there should be no issue there.
The Thule Flat Top was replaced by the Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # TH7324, so when you're ready to upgrade, these are the ones to upgrade to. As for compatibility of your Thule Flat Top Ski Rack when using the mounting kit # 7533998, this fits crossbars up to 1-1/8" tall x 3-3/4" wide. If your bars are taller than that, like most square bars are, then you need the Thule Xadapt7 # THXADAPT7 which are longer bolts and will allow you to mount your ski rack onto thicker bars.
