Replacement Stabilizing Strap for Yakima and Rhode Gear Bike Carriers

Question:

Need to replace rubber straps from a Rhode Gear Super Cycle Shuttle. A photo of the original, tapered strap is shown in one of your QandA links: question-53743. The eTrailor.com video response references a replacement strap with a part number of RGSUF1052. Cannot find that part on your website. I do see a few other straps, e.g., Code: Y02412, Code: 852-3006-001, Code: 853-5834 Can you please advise if there are replacement straps that will work? Need 4. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

Original replacement parts for Rhode Gear racks are rare these days since the brand was acquired by Yakima and then dissolved some years back. We do still have some OEM parts like their Replacement Cradle for Rhode Gear Super Shuttle Racks # RG8890084 and their Replacement Stabilizing Strap # Y8890253 but for rubber straps the best option, which is not an exact replacement, is Yakima's # 8890221. We offer the straps in a set of 2, so you'll want to order a quantity of two to get the four you need.
