Question:
Replacement Tube Cradle and Strap for Saris Freedom Bike Platform Racks w/Frame Mount How do you replace this? I am about to buy one, due to being hit, but I cant see how the new one goes on. The bottom yellow push pin is in the way and cant see how to remove it.

Expert Reply:
The Yellow knob on the Replacement Tube Cradle and Strap for Saris Freedom Bike Platform Rack, part # SA24382 is actually a thumb screw. If the knob was damaged on the screw you may be able to use something like pliers or vise grips to remove the old screw.
You should be able to unscrew the knob and slide it off the bike rack. The # SA24382 includes the cradle and the strap and will work with most Saris Freedom platform bike carriers.
