Question:

I have a Thule EasyFold XT bike carrier. Part of how it secures to my hitch is with a sort of pin that goes into the hold on the right side of the hitch. So can I use the RM-050 with this bike carrier? Do you have a different rolling hitch protector that can work with this bike carrier?

Expert Reply:

I do have an option for you. But the Roadmaster Rollaway Trailer Hitch Protector # RM-050 will not work with the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 because of the style of pin the Thule EasyFold XT uses. The # RM-050 needs a pin that goes all the way through the hitch receiver.

The only option we would have is the Ultra-Fab Steel Jumbo Roller # UF48-979023 which would need to be welded on. This is not the greatest option because welding this on will void your hitches warranty, but it is the only option we have that will work with that bike rack.
