Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack for Sprinter Rear Door
The Thule Elite Van XT2 Bike Rack is just what I expected but the install instructions leave something to be desired. Nothing but pictures trying to describe the install. Even a few poorly worded sentences would have been helpful in some places. I have seen this noted in other reviews and [online]. Otherwise a quality product and I have been able to integrate it with my Kuat swing arm and bike rack that we were already using. I wanted to be able to add a 3rd bike to our setup without extending the length and still be able to open the rear doors without removing a bike. This all worked out with just a little modification. I did move the Thule bike rail install point 1.5" above the center install position to allow clearance over my wife's ebike. See photos.
The bike rack arrived within 2 business days as promised by Melissa. Install was straight forward. We drove with two bikes 4000 miles and had absolutely no issues. We used the adhesive recommended in the instructions and had absolutely no problems with dispensing the adhesive (as sometimes mentioned in the reviews).
