5 out of 5 stars Worth the extra money   May 26, 2007

I was skeptical. How effective could these actually be? But for the price I figured "why not give them a try?"

Worth the extra $20 or so. Although there was little to no sway with the Thule rack in the first place (I love my Thule rack - the 912), these keep the bikes extra firm and in their place when you're on backroads. But, I think most importantly, these cages keep the bikes from banging into each other and causing unnecessary frame dings.

Cons:
A little bit of a hassle to put on and take off - maybe 5 minutes extra to secure two bikes.

Also, you have to throw them in your car rather than leave them on the rack - too easy to steal so why risk it.

I like them - I recommend as long as they're less than $20.

I had a problem with the front of my mountain bike coming out of the cradle with my 937 rack. I figured it couldn't hurt to buy one of these.

If you follow the directions exactly and make sure the part is firm then it works like it's suppose to. The front of my bike quit moving around.

I've got a hard tail so it works. The part is designed to ride up against the seat tube right where it meets the top tube so if you have a full suspension bike this may or may not work for you depending on the rear suspension design.

If you have the Spare Tire Rack, as I do for my Jeep Wrangler, the Model 955 "stabilizer" is a must-have. It works perfectly and does what it has to do - keeps the bike from swaying back and forth over any kind of terrain. I would highly recommend it, and it's worth the price.

This is a simple addition to a trailer hitch that really works. The package contains two which is enough for two bikes.


5 out of 5 stars Serves The Purpose   November 25, 2008
C. Bermudez (Ny, Ny)
I was very excited to use these items. When I got them, my family and I traveled from Jersey City to Carolina Beach, NC, 10-hour trip, and carried our 2 bikes in our our spare tire. These items are rock solid because my bikes didn't sway/move considering the strong drag and long travel. These tighten the hold/grip of my bikes to my thule rack.
