Will adaptor work on a Specialized VADO E Bike. The bike comes with a factory rack, but it is narrow and integrated into the fender. Would like to use the adaptor if possible. Thanks.

I spoke with Thule regarding the EasyFit Mounting Adapter, part # TH12020409, with your Specialized VADO E-Bike.

While they did not have any confirmed fit with this particular combination, they stated that what mattered most in determining the compatibility is the rack's width and weight capacity. In other words, if your bike's rack fits with those dimensions, then this adapter will work.

For the width, the rack needs to be between 110 and 170 millimeters. For the weight capacity, the rack needs to be able to support at least 25 kilograms.
