Replacement M8 x 30 mm Bolt for Thule Apex, EasyFold, or Helium Pro Bike Racks - Qty 1

This adaptor helped me with my new car , I couldn’t find them any where els .i got so happy that etrailer had them and thank you for your through video instructions.1603870

The delivery was exemplary, but to charge $X+ for one bolt is ridiculous. Not etrailier's fault but Thule nickel-and-diming - these should have been includeded with the plate adapter but inexplicably were not.1571836

Solved my Thule bike rack/trailer hitch dilemma immediately! 5-minute installation and saved a couple hundred bucks by doing it myself. Well-designed and detailed shipping tracking system that really kept me up to date on delivery time, and arrived 1-day early too. Could not be happier! You will need (2) of these screws (sold separately) to make the adapter work.1095720

Without doubt Thule is the best bike hauler ever made. We use it often, wouldnt trade it for another. And the process to access adapter parts was superb.

Kind of pricey but needed them. 1692814

Very easy purchase from start to finish. Even had Carol C email me several times with updates about the progress of my order. Great company, service and people. Thanks Carol!1549469

Jesse was great to work with. Handled my order in a very nice way and followed up during the shipping period,1573926

It fits well but the website description is wrong. the size is M8x30m1546089

Very satisfied dealing with etrailer.. Best instructions on the internet and most products available. Bought a Curt Hitch . Needed a special adapter for the new bike rack I was ordering.. They were the only one to stock it other than the slow manufacturer of the bike rack..
Yes there was an issue by the shipping company but etrailer listened and immediately replaced the item no questions asked. Great company and if you are looking at their products they are the only one you should buy from.. Again the stand behind all their products and go over board to please the customer649999

The wiring harness works perfectly and the installation video was very helpful as are all of the etrailer video’s I have viewed. I retired from a HD truck manufacturer after a rewarding 39 year career. My job involved providing part requirements for 150 custom trucks per day. This required A constant dedication to quality and communication.

I see Etrailer as a company with similar goals and is a model that other company’s should follow. Keep up the good work. It is a pleasure doing business with you.820285

I bought my bike rack five years ago. When we changed cars, a new larger tow was put on. The Thule bike rack rattled in the larger tow, even with a generic adapter. The new adapter to the rack works great! No more rattles with the rack. My only suggestion would be to make a kit available with the adapter, screws, and wrench available to make ordering easier. The Thule locks and phone holder for the bike are really nice but I wish Thule would include some written instructions. I still have one piece for the phone holder that I have no idea where it goes! Overall, though, everything was very good.1086937

Wasn’t the correct fit. I have a three bike carrier .. I also bought the adapter that goes on the stinger and wasn’t flush when I used the cap screw.. seems like it is too long. And was looking at Item # 853-5787-02 which is shorter1197420

Helpfull costumer service my package order came two days early with the regular ground shipping from west coast to east coast of USA. It only take 3 business days1498100

Arrived quickly. Packaged well. I would offer these in stainless steel to avoid rust as they install onto the bike rack which is exposed to the elements.1284675

all products work exactly as described. it's kind of hard to get overly excited over parts for bicycle rack, but whoopy. nuff said g schmidt243883

Doesn’t fit the Thule Helium 970XT.
Wound up going to the local hardware store and getting a bolt that actually fits.
