Is my rear fender sufficient? I have a rear fender with a lightweight bar attaching it to the frame at the axle. Is that sufficient or will I need a rear rack in addition to the fender?

No. It would be very difficult to attach these racks to a fender. In addition, the fender would likely bend and collapse. These racks are designed to use with a rear rack.

I don't have this set of baskets yet, but I've got them on order. The description says that the baskets mount to a rack, which is definitely not the same as a fender.And even if you can rig up some way to mount it to a fender, fenders are pretty light-weight and not meant to bear any weight. Probably collapse the fender as soon as you put any load in the baskets.

i dont thank it will help you ,because your fender bolts to your lower tubes. you need to change your fender get one thats made for a 21 inch tire but the progresive do give a good ride

It should be just fine. Rear sites all sit at the same level so I don't see any reason why yours would have issues. Hope this helps.

This one is for bikes with disc brakes. If you do not have disc brakes, then you will need a different model. If you do have disc brakes, you may have to remove rear fender to install this.

Front, yes. Rear, I dont know. I've never seen a fixie with fenders though.

Fits on my cruiser, but your rear fender will be the final judge as each cruiser has a little different design...sorry dont have the brand of my bike handy either.

I needed to get a breaker bar with a swivel socket end to reach the nuts on the fender, about $10 at Lowes. Other than that just some a couple of wrenches and allen wrenches. Also I would suggest putting something on the floor to catch the nuts because you will probably drop them a time or two since it's a tight fit to get them started. It was pretty easy after I got the swivel socket.

Should work fine. Bike is held in place by lower tire track and upper sliding arm which would rest over fender.

I doubt it but would contact Thule. The bar does clamp down on the front tire so may hurt the fender. Good luck.

i'm not sure what to tell you....or how u attached your rear rack, because mine is almost vertical when i attached it to my bike just exactly like the picture....maybe u should ask for an exchange. 20-30 degrees of tilting (either up or down wards) i believe is not right. good luck.

The rear of my '97 now appears a little higher than the front, though I wouldn't say 4 inches. With the airbag suspension the rear would "kneel" when you park for ease of loading, but with the kit it is up where it can take a cargo load on the road. The tops of my bumpers measure close to the same height from the ground now. Did you get the front shocks installed at the time the rear springs were installed? Even if the existing shocks were still good, that is a good idea and will affect the stance. Did you put a 4x2 kit on a 4x4 truck? That would definitely mess up the stance. Possibly you got so used to seeing it sitting down on it's haunches that the rear just looks too high now? Folks on the Ford forums might have more info, some of them are techs with a lot of experience. Just a note, I got mine last April and still like them even if my truck rides like a truck now instead of a car.

Mine is great! As long as you have a rear tire then you have the three necessary bolts to secure the rack. It does great at high speeds (70mph +). I would STRONGLY recommend getting it put on by a bike shop. It isn't difficult, but if your car is older they might need a torque wrench for good measure. STRONGLY recommend. Good luck to you!

I actually did have this mounted (Position 13) on my 2010 Forester which is basically the same car before the styling change without issue but...This car does not have the optional rear "spoiler" above the back glass. The upper straps, after the rack is ratcheted down with bikes mounted does put a decent load on this area and if a spoiler present, it might not support this load very well. If your car does have the spoiler, this will not work without damage.

I put the brackets on the fender and then the shims between those brackets and the backrest brackets. Hope that helps you.

My fenders were already trimmed. I think it would have fit and been fine for street use. But, it would have rubbed with full articulation during off road use. With the trimmed fenders and bushwacker fender flares, no problems at all.

Yes, I have one for my Maxstone 10. You have to lengthen the body posts to reach the body either with spacers or longer posts, and you'll have to clearance the fenders a bit, especially the rears, unless you plan on running 1.9 tires like I am. Also, I'm not using the bumpers that come with it due to clearance issues but it looks just fine without them. Hope this helps.
