Question:
Hi, I have a Thule Vertex 2 Bike Hitch Rack, which is a 1.25 one with the Thule alloy adapter sleeve to 2.0. I am looking for the cheapest anti rattle setup, and would forgo the lock to save money. I see many on the site, but Im unsure what the threading is on the Thule rack, so am not sure which one I could use. Thanks
