Today, on our 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500, we are doing a test fit of the Thule Roadway Hanging Style II bike rack. That part # is TH912XTR. We already have our bike loaded up on our rack. The first thing we are going to do is show you how we strap that down and then we will go over some features of the rack itself. We have two cradles holding our bike in place with 3 straps; 2 on our frame and one is our anti-sway strap in the back. The first thing we will do is remove our straps at the top and then we will remove our anti-sway strap. We can pull our bike off and set it off to the side. Any time that we remove our straps, I always suggest to replace those so you don't lose or damage any of them. With those back in place, we will take a few measurements. The first one is going to be our distance overall with the arms hanging out. more
