I apologize.If we come up front, we're gonna see we have it mounted by the two forks.

And when it's folded onto, you're gonna get a set of keys with your bike rack. more

Thule Sprint Roof Bike Racks Review - 2008 Honda Accord- Video

Today on our 2008 Honda Accord, we're going to test fitting the Thule Sprint Roof Mounted Bike Rack part number TH528. We'll begin our test fit by placing our rack on top of our Roof Rack System. We went ahead and installed the Thule Rapid Traverse Roof Rack System on this vehicle. All right, let's begin our setup here. We'll go ahead and take the T, put it in the right position and then we'll tighten down the lever here in the back. It's easiest to start with this straight out and then once you get some tension on it, you can cam it over and use it for some leverage. Let's go ahead and work it with a little bit more leverage on here so it's easier to tighten up. Once you get that tightened down good, we can go ahead and move to the back. Now, the back is the same type of system so we'll go ahead and pull our T over these straps or rubber corded steel reinforced strap, so they're very strong but still really flexible. Work on getting this tightened down. This bike rack is made out of aluminum so it's nice and light, yet still very strong. All right, with that, our bike rack all secured into our Roof Rack System, we'll go ahead and open up the rear wheel strap here so we can load our bike up. This is a fork mounted system so our front bike is going to load on to this skewer. Go ahead and put our back wheel into the wheel cradle and get our forks mounted on to the skewer. Go ahead and loose this up. more

Thule Sprint Roof Bike Racks Review - 2009 Honda Civic- Video

Today on our 2009 Honda Civic, we're going to be test fitting the Thule Sprint. This is a roof rack mounted fork clamp style bike rack. It's part number is TH528. We've got the Thule Rapid Traverse Roof Rack System that we've already installed on the Civic, so we'll begin our test fit by placing the rack right up onto our crossbars. As we do this, we want to make sure that the black rubber coated metal straps on each clamp go around the underside of our bars and that the top of our clamps are sitting right on top of the crossbars. We'll then bring those metal coated straps, or the rubber coated metal straps rather, around the underside, fit them into the indentations and then tighten the black levers here on the rear. For the initial tightening process, having them straight out is going to be the quickest way to take up the slack and then you'll cam them over into a lever position to give you a little more torque. With the front nice and secure, we'll move to the rear and essentially we're going to repeat that exact same process. more
