Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the replacement anti sway attachment for Thule Apex and Helium Aero bike racks. This unit replaces one ant sway attachment on the holdfast cradle of your Thule Apex or Helium Aero bike rack. It fits Thule Apex models TH9025, TH9026, and TH9027 and it fits Thule Helium models TH9042, and Th9043. Now this is designed to work with the cradle and a rubber strap to prevent your bike from rocking back and forth during transport. It attaches to the angled extension on the bottom of the cradle or directly to the cradle if you don't have the angled extension. It protects your bike frame from scratches because it features these really nice, soft thermoplastic elastomer bumpers.
So it's a really nice designed unit. It really cushions it so that way it's not the construction of the bike on bare plastic, but makes contact with these bumpers to protect the bike finishing and the bike frame from scratches abrasions or any type of damage. That's gonna do it for today's look at the replacement ant sway attachment for the Thule Apex and Helium Aero bike racks.

Prevent your bike from rocking back and forth during transport by replacing a lost or damaged anti-sway attachment for the Hold Fast cradles of your Thule Apex bike rack. This part attaches to the angled extension on the bottom of the cradle.I own the Yakama swing Daddy bike rack and the Thule Apex 4 bike rack. I think this part should've been part of the Apex bike rack in the first place. In general I think Yakama makes a better bike rack with a permanent anti-sway mechanism so it can't get stolen. The Thule anti-sway attachment can easily be stolen, so I would recommend taking it off when you leave on your bike ride. This part does what it should, but keep in mind you may need the angled extension part as well since the Apex bar is curved. Putting the anti-sway attachment by itself may not allow the bike to hang straight down. eTrailor did a great job shipping my item and keeping me updated on the status of my shipment.
This is an exact replacement of the anti-sway for a Thule Helium rack purchased about 4 years ago, before a design change of the Helium. My local retailer (where I bought the rack) said the part is no longer available. It's been difficult to track down "old design" with rubber straps versus "new design" with plastic straps, but the photos on eTrailer helped me find the correct part. Thank you!
Over the last few years, I've needed several random parts for bike racks. These guys have always had the part, priced it fairly, delivered on time....and didn't stick it to me on shipping. Well done.
Great service from etrailer! The Thule anti-sway attachment works very well to stabilize the bike while it hangs from the rack.
This was the exact part I needed for my bicycle rack.
Paul L - 05/07/2022The part was just what we needed and we couldn't find it anywhere else. The price was spot on and shipping charge was reasonable. The response to the order was immediate and delivery time was good. I am a satisfied customer and recommend etrailer.com. Thanks!
After my son borrowed my bike rack three of the four clips were missing. On a whim I looked for them online and discovered etrailer.com stocked them. I ordered three and they arrived in no time. I appreciate the fast service and what I feel was a good price for the item.
Marc - 07/26/2021So far. The replacements seem to be working as intended. Thank god for etrailer.com to provide replacement parts for my 5+ year old bike carrier at a reasonable price.
My original anti-sway attachments were stolen from my rack. Ah, people - some of them good, some of them bad. If you are not using the rack, I would suggest removing the anti-sway attachments - they are too easy to steal.
Arrived earlier than expected, fit perfectly. I actually installed this on the Thule 934PRO Hitching Post Pro.
The parts fit our TH9043 bike rack perfectly!! I forgot to order straps but I took the ones off the middle of the 3 bike holders (we only carry two bikes at a time) & used them instead of ordering straps. We're back whole & ready to ride! Thank you for a GREAT product & holding my order (& prices) until they came in!
Poorly designed, they keep falling off.
Perfect replacement for my missing part.
Perfect fit and got them quick.
see product review for the other part that connects to this. It is poor from the viewpoint that they should be one so they are not lost and have a permanent attachment to the Thule bike rack.
Lu H - 08/12/2015The part was just what I needed. The service was prompt and excellent.
Exact replacement part for Thule bike rack. Fast service and excellent communication at each step of the purchasing process.
This was the perfect replacement to the piece I had lost at the end of last season. Throughout the ordering - receiving process, I always felt as if etrailer kept me informed about the progress of my order & when to expect arrival. It came today and has been installed on my bike rack already.
Part was exactly what I wanted.
Best customer service out there.
It actually fell off, it little loose when I got it didn't fit as tight as the other ones.
Clayton O - 09/03/2021So hard to find parts for my older bike rack that is still in perfect condition from the day I bought it. So glad to be able to get parts..
Works perfect!
Barbara - 10/24/2021The price was amazing! I purchased 8 of these Anti-sway attachments for my Thule bike rack. Thule was charging almost $30.00 for two! Not only was the price wonderful but the customer service-outstanding. I had my order in a few days!! Love this company! Thank you!
Cheryl R - 09/19/2016This is a replacement part for one that was inadvertently lost on a bike outing. It works perfectly for my Thule rack.
Very timely order and delivery. I had placed an order directly with Thule but after a week Thule emailed me that they had a delay in my order. So I placed an order with etrailer and it shipped the same day. Delivery was made within a few days. Great service. Yes I cancelled my order with Thule!
