Question:
I have a bike rack which I think is model 5155168 two bike. It’s an older model with a center mounted piece with two control arms that attach on the top two of a bike. I was wondering if it’s possible bro replace the center mounted piece with support which attaches on the tire or handle bars? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The part number you reference is to an older Thule Big Mouth bike rack which has been discontinued, however I believe the part you're referring to and needing is the Replacement Wheel Tray for Thule Big Mouth Roof Mounted Bike Carrier # 853-5423-56, however the upright bike arm has been discontinued with the rack and is not offered for a replacement.
If your current upright is non-operational then I'd just recommend replacing the entire rack with the Thule ProRide XT Roof Bike Rack - Frame Mount - Clamp On or Channel Mount # TH598004.
This bike rack can handle one bike that weighs 44-lbs, a maximum tire width of 3", and will fit on round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars.
