Thule Prologue Bike Rack Mounted To Aero Bars

Published 01/14/2021

Question:

Can you please advise if possible to install, adapt, Prologue bike racks onto Aero bars? The rear end of the bike rack doesnt look that difficult, but the front, fork mount seems challenging, since the distance between bolts in the front is way narrower than the Aero bars width... thanks so much for your help.

The Thule Prologue Roof Mounted Bike Rack that you referenced will work with the Thule Aero crossbars with the XADAPT9 load bar adapter, Part # THXADAPT9.

This adapter comes with a curved metal bracket for the rear crossbar and two square head bolts that go into the top channels of the front crossbar. There are two nuts that secure the front of the bike rack to the two square bolts.

Further instruction detail can be sourced on the product page that I have added below.
