Can Thule Upride Bike Rack Fit Square/Round Crossbars without Adapter
Updated 08/31/2020 | Published 08/27/2020
Question:
Im looking at an UpRide rack that is missing the adapter that lets you attach it to crossbars without the T-screw. I found a Thule pdf that shows the UpRide 599 comes with Thule Bike Rack Around-the-Bar Adapter 8898. Can you confirm that 8898 is what comes with the rack or would work with it on other blade-style crossbars? I actually have AeroBlade bars, but I dont think I want to cut the rubber strip in order to use the channel for the T-screws. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The Thule Upride part # TH599000 that you referenced does not require additional adapter to install around a square or round bar. This includes hardware to fit around a crossbar like you are wanting as well as attach to a top channel.
