Will the Thule Circuit XT TH526XT Fit the Rhino Rack Roof Rack for Camper Shells?
Question:
Will this work with the Y02-490B Rhino-Rack Roof Rack System?
asked by: Briana D
Expert Reply:
I have a great bike rack solution for you. Unfortunately, since the Thule Circuit XT TH526XT only works with crossbars up to 3-1/4" wide x 1-1/2" tall, it will not fit the 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall crossbar dimensions of the Rhino Rack Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-490B.
However, with that being said, I recommend the Swagman Race Ready Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On # S64705. Not only does this bike rack come with a higher weight capacity than the Thule Circuit XT (45 pounds), it comes with a locking ratcheting hook that protects your bike while mounted to the rack. Another advantage over the Thule is that it does not involve the complicating and frustrating mounting process of the fork-mount style. As far as installation, the rack does not involve any tools to mount/remove. Since the Race Ready is compatible with crossbars up to 3-3/4 inches in diameter, it will work great on the Rhino Rack Vortex Crossbars on your # Y02-490B.
