Question:

I have a Thule T2 classic rack. It has the original size arms. I read that I can buy longer arms to fit over my 29 inch bike tires. Whats the part number?

Expert Reply:

If you have the older version of the Thule T2 Classic (pre 2012) then you can replace your ratcheting arms with part # 752-1272-001 which has an overall length of 31-1/2" and will accommodate your 29" bike tires.

If you check out the attached picture that a customer sent in you can see that this arm assembly allowed them to fit a 29" x 3" tire on their bike rack.

To ensure that you can still use the same key for all of the locking components on your bike rack you can use either part # TH450200 (qt 2) for just the ratcheting arms or part # TH450400 (qt 4) for the arms and the locking hitch pin.
