Does Thule Load Bar Adapter Work for Older Thule Echelon Bike Rack
Updated 03/03/2020 | Published 03/01/2020 >
Question:
Adapter for older echelon. I have seen your answers in the XADAPT9 for moving Thule echelon rack to factory style aero bars. However I have an older model and the pics I’ve seen im not sure it will still work. Mine fits the older square bars.

Expert Reply:
There is just one Thule Echelon bike rack, the Thule Echelon 518. As you mentioned, this is an older bike rack, but if you are sure this is what you have, then you can absolutely use the Thule Load Bar Adapter for Peloton and Echelon Bike Racks # THXADAPT9.
I have added a link to the installation instructions and a video review for you to check out as well.
