Here are the points I will make : 1. Storing this kryptonite U lock will take a bit of thought with bungee cords or such. 2. It is a heavy little thing, about five pounds. 3. It will very likely keep your bike safe, and one cannot say that about most other locks. Other locks have advantages like costing less, weighing less, storing easier, and fitting more posts and racks... but not keeping your bike safe. Final point is that the smaller the U lock the less vulnerable to attack it is, but of course this means there are fewer places that you can lock to. I lost my Trek with a cable lock, bought a better trek and this much better lock..no problems for 2 years in Miami which is one of the many bike theft capitols. I would get this lock and work around the problems that security requires.

I have a Huffy cruiser bike. The basket adjusts to various sizes I'm sure any standard rack will work.

The chains may work, as they are designed for low profile wheels and tire combinations. The trick is to check one of your lug nuts for the outside diameter. If it is 22mm or larger, you might have a problem. The K56 set would not fit on my RR Sport Supercharged with 20 inch stock wheels. My Lug nut OD is 22mm, and while Thule Customer Service suggested they "should" work, I can tell you they did not. I checked with a local Thule dealer at a Road and Rack store, and he said that the K56 set does not include the largest lug nut sleeve, but I could order it seperately, that didn't appeal to me, so sent my set back. You are right, these are expensive, so you want to get it right from the get go. By the way, the Amazon return process was a piece if cake, so it's not the end of the world. Good luck!

If you're using a Step through bike, get a frame adaptor. I think Thule makes a good one. But otherwise yes, it will work. Mine works great.

Yakima usually is round and Thule is more rectangular. I use it for my Kayak's and it works great for that. I unfortunately don't use Yakima or Thule accessories on it but would recommend on looking at the different Thule accessories as it has the closes attachments to this rack.

I found these reviews on Thule's website, regarding the 2001 and 2002 CRVs. I have a 2005 CRV, and this appears to be our best option for a bike rack. I am concerned about the off-center wheel though - http://www.thule.com/en-us/us/products/carriers-and-racks/bike-carriers/spare-tire-bike-carriers/thule-spare-met-963pro-_-963pro

Nope. I had to return these plate holders because they would not fit my Powertec Power Rack. Although New York Barbells has an Amazon store, it appears you must visit their main website outside of Amazon to get the size you need - which is 2.5". I bought two of these from NYBB and they do fit --&gt; (C-1010-OS-2.5B) Designed to fit on 2 3/8" sq. tube although they do cost about 5 dollars more.

I would utilize another brand. My racks bent after having two trips and two light bikes on them I emailed the manufacturer and got no response

Will fit any rack with a hole drilled in the back for the nut and bolt. I have a Trek rack on my Bianchi comfort bike that had a reflector mounted to the rear of the rack. I removed the reflector and bolted on the Cygolite Rack Mount. Quick and east and works perfectly. Hope this answers your queston.

Yes, but not sure if per Thule/Yakima. I have the Toyota factory roof rack, they are kept in stowed position/side rails, then I mounted Yakima mounts w/ crossbars (purchased used) so not sure if these were designed for it. They barely bite around the factory rail, but do work. You will need to measure the diameter to see. Similar to the Thule Crossroad or Yakima Railgrab. It was annoying to find the factory rails when are too big (wide oval/elliptical shape) for most Thule/Yakima Accessories, like my upright bike racks. All is well now with the Yakima crossbars.

Yes I think it will. The Topeak Exploer Tubular Rack has 2 holes on the sides and 1 hole in the center. Almost similar to the light rack mount for Planet bike lights. It fit most of my rack fine. This bracket should be able to fit most rack. You can always mount it sideways or upside down. It might just work. You can always email the seller for the return policy before you buy it just in case it does not fit.

Should be just fine, call Thule customer service for further info. I found that I needed to use small pieces of microfiber cloth on the upper arms to stop the marks left on the top of the trunk left by the rubber. Still the best rack I've ever used, easy on and off, very stable at any speed.

The racks I bought are the Thule Xsporter Pro . I did not see another model number.

Thule's website has a vehicle identification program on their website that will tell you every option they have that will fit your vehicle. At times they discontinue products as was the case with my vehicle; then you might try contacting a bicycle company of your choice such as (bike barn.com) and they can perhaps look back and see if Thule ever made a rack for your vehicle and then if discontinued you can do a search on amazon for your fit kit you need, as did I, successfully.

If the Thule can take T-slot accessories, then the ski rack should work without any additional mounts. My Factory Audi cross bars are T-bar compatible and work great with this rack. Super quiet compared to the old Yakima Dropdown 6.

P.S. a cheap solution that works, since the Thule bike rack didn't work for my girlfriends small sized bike's is that I bought some heavy duty hook screws from the hardware store, screwed them into the garage walls beam and hung her bike's up that way. It totally works and is way cheaper.Just YouTube some videos on bike rack, and storage solutions.

The rack will work but you may need and adaptor bar for the upper attachment. These can purchased st a bike shop. Wal-Mart has them for 16.98
