Loading Ramp Add-On Options For An Older Thule T2 Patform Bike Rack
Question:
I have a Thule 917XT T2 bike rack but am interested in a loading ramp accessory. Having difficulty lifting bike onto rack with shoulder issue. Is there a ramp that will work with this bike rack. Thanks for your input.

So I do have another solution, however adding a ramp to your Thule T2 Platform-Style 2 Bike Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches # TH917XT which is no longer available, is not an option.
I know it isn't ideal, but the only real solution is to replace your bike rack with another rack that is compatible with a ramp accessory like the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # NV22G, which can use the ramp accessory # ANVBRB.
Or
You can use Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bike # TH903202 which has an integrated ramp for easy loading, or can also use the extra long ramp # TH933402 if you have a taller vehicle.
