Today on our 2015 Toyota Highlander, we're going to be test-fitting the Thule Circuit XT Rooftop bike rack, part number TH526XT. We already have our bike installed on the rack, let's go and take a closer look and show off some of it's features. First off, how the bike is attached to the rack, we're going to have no frame contact at all, so you're bike itself is not going to get scratched up once it's loaded up. Instead, we have it held on by two points. We have this front skewer here that holds the bike in place by it's fork-mounts, which is lockable if you remove this portion here, so you can actually secure the bike to the rack. We also have this wheel strap in the back, which is adjustable the length of the bike rack to accommodate different sized bikes.
