Are There Different Angles to Attach the Tire Mounts on the Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Platform Rack?
Updated 04/12/2021 | Published 04/09/2021
Question:
Looks to me like the hook on top of the wheel wedges in at the point where tire and fork meet, there by contacting the forkpart of the frame. Pretty common to have carbon fiber forks. Is this correct or am I seeing it wrong?

Expert Reply:
The placement of the ratcheting hook on the Thule T2 Classic 2 Bike Platform Rack depends on the vertical angle that you attach the bike. If you are worried about contact with the bike's fork, you can attach the hooks more toward the top of the tire. I went ahead and attach some different pics of different angles of attachment to the tires.
