The bike hitch and arm are very sturdy and well-designed, but the rubber rings, attachments and straps are ridiculous. The rings are immovable (except when they move by themselves during transport of bikes then can’t be moved back) and the other pieces are awkward to use and don’t stay on. It’s like the original engineers of the bike racks were replaced by amateurs when it came to the last 20% of the job - the parts that are used most.
Ordered on Wednesday afternoon and had the part Saturday morning. Wow, so quick!! Part was correct and matched the catalog description - I worked for a online auto parts company (the one with the amateur cartoon ads) so I know that some retailers don’t do such a good job.
Received the product in a timely fashion and it was easy to install. I would definitely order other replacement parts for my bike rack through your company.
Came fast and fits perfectly
Exactly what was ordered!
I bought a pre-owned Thule bike rack that was missing some of the parts. Did a Google search for the parts and found etrailer carrier them. Needed them quickly so placed an expedited order through etrailer. They arrived very quickly and were a perfect fit. This was my first order with etrailer, but definitely won't be the last. Great product selection, good communication, & fast shipping. I'm completely impressed. Great job, etrailer!
Quick delivery and excellent customer service when I called to identify the part.
Excellent service, quick shipping.
I love the etrailer business and customer service model. From order through delivery I feel like I'm being taken care of by a team that truly cares for me as customer, but they also recognize each individual on their team who has anything to do with fulfilling my orders. etrailer demostrates exemplary practice through their process, communications, and services. Keep up the great work!
The parts fit perfectly with my Thule bike rack. Thank you!
Excellent, needed replacements for those that were removed from my rack (unauthorized "5-finger-discounts" from passers by...). Just like the originals.
purchased 1 piece of 852-2903-001
and 6 pieces of 852-3006-001 (to replace sun damaged ones)...
So now I remove all of these and store them inside my vehicle when not carrying the bikes.

Great. Thank You.
Awesome product and fast delivery. Satisfied customer and I plan to order all of my bike hitching products from this company in the future. I really enjoyed the built in tracking application via email to track my order.
Just as advertised...Our rack is an older Thule Camber 2 and this worked fine.
This is a component for an anti sway device on a bike rack. The parts are well designed, easily disassembled for different configurations, and work well for intended purpose.
Most of all, eTrailer is fantastic as usual. Great price and fast shipping. Bonus, if you have any issues, a live person answers the phone and a resolution comes in moments without pushback. If I need it, I check here first.
Anti-sway works fine, just wish the attachment to the rack itself was better designed to begin with.
Very grateful that etrailer.com had these anti-sway attachments that were "removed" (i.e. stolen) from our Thule bike rack. etrailer had a full selection of the parts we needed for our specific bike rack model. Easy to navigate, search, and order from the etrailer website. Delivery was as scheduled.
Just the part I needed for our Thule bike rack. Fits perfect!

Great. Holding up just fine
First of all, the service from e-trailer is amazing. I no sooner order what I want and it is in the mail! Keep up the good work.
The anti-sway cradle for the Thule bike rack is a poor design. Other bike racks that either I have owned or that I have seen, have this section complete with no opening. Because of this open section (see above), I have lost two of them in a couple of months of ownership. This needs another part to complete the attachment. At least I get good service in replacing them.
These were some parts that I had lost and had to replace. I had earlier purchased a Thule Hitching Post Pro - Folding Tilting 4 Bike Rack w Anti-Sway - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches from e-trailer.com. Both purchases met my expectations. The items were received as described and when promised (within a few days). The sales reps were helpful. I recommend them highly.
I'm very satisfied with the products from etrailer. I've had to order replacement anti-sway parts for my bikerack 2 times only because I didn't strap them up when there was no bike on the car and they fell off on the road. The products are excellent quality and shipping was fast.
The real deal!
Ordered two anti-sway cradles and straps for my Thule bike rack. The parts were promptly shipped to me and they were exactly the same as the original Thule parts. If I am ever again in need of any more parts I will certainly order from etrailer.
Does what it's supposed to. Direct OEM replacement. Easy to order, plenty of shipping options & showed up exactly when etrailer said it would.

1 year later, still working as it should, no noticeably excessive wear or deterioration.
Added this to my bike rack to keep the bikes from swaying back and forth- works perfectly!

After one year, the part is still doing well and is essential in keeping my bike stable on the rack. Took bikes to South Carolina and back without a problem.
