Question:

I have a Thule Raceway Platform trunk rack and want to be able to carry my fat bike with 4.8 inch tires. Are there any fat bike tire cradles that I can use?

I contacted Thule and unfortunately there are no cradles for larger, fat bike tires available for your Thule Raceway Platform rack. If you would be interested in looking at a hitch hanging or platform bike rack then there may be some options. For example, the RockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # RKY87RR, works with 1-1/4 inch and 2-inch hitches and accepts tires with maximum width up to 5 inches.

If interested in checking out this RockyMounts HighNoon option or something similar, send me the year, make, and model of your vehicle and I can make specific recommendations.

I have also attached some help articles and a video for you to check out.
