Question:
I need a strap replacement for the Thule hitch mount 3-bike 2015. It looks like these straps won’t work because of the different assembly on the cradle? Please let me know what you have that will work.

Hello Annalisa, thanks for reaching out. The straps you pictured and the bike rack look at lot like the old Thule T2. Do you happen to know the name or model number of your Thule Rack? That is usually the best way to confirm the correct replacement parts. Thule did make a few different models of bike rack back then, and the straps are largely model specific. That said, if what you have is the Thule T2 (sure looks like it is), you can use the following strap:
- Replacement Rubber Strap for Thule T2 Bike Carrier Cradles # 753-3535
I have included a picture with detailed dimensions of the strap. As long as this matches what you have now, you can be sure it will work.
This goes with the cradle part # 853-5829 if you ever need to replace those.
Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help!

Hey Annalisa, did you find out the model of your Thule rack and were you able to confirm if the strap I suggested worked for you? I'm asking because it could help others who are trying to find the right replacement parts for their bike racks.
