The correct replacement cradles for your Rhode Gear Shuttle Rack is # RG8890084.

Rhode Gear was bought out by Yakima, and some of the old Rhode Gear products are still available like this one.

The Thule Cradle # 853-7887 that you referenced, may work, but, it may also be too long to install over any curves in the bike rack arm. In the picture, you can see that the Thule cradle, which has a 1 inch diameter and a 2-5/8 inch width. The Rhode Gear cradle has a 1 inch diameter and 2-1/8 inch width.
