User questions & answers

Question:	Does the hold women’s bike without middle bar
Answer:	It's listed as 27.25 oz's
Question:	is there a protective cover that works well with this style rack (2 bikes
Answer:	It's not really a straightforward answer. The correct length depends on a couple of things: Sit Inside or Sit On top Kayak. Is your paddling style going to be shallow or deeper? I recall when I first started paddling I Googled for the information for which length would be correct for me. That would be my recommendation. Try https://www.bendingbranches.com/sizing/kayak-paddle or https://paddling.com/learn/kayak-paddle-length-how-to-pick-the-right-size/
Question:	Can rack be locked to vehicle
Answer:	I have the trophy charcoal color, so can't really answer your question for sure. But, I'm pretty sure that no matter which color you choose, both blades of the paddle will match each other. You won't get one blade that is citrus and the other blade blue with a white star. They will both be the same. Also, don't expect the blades to be brightly colored on both sides. The blades are semi-transparent, so on front they are nice and colorful, but on he back side, they are more muted with the colors from the front showing through to the back. They are really nice paddle and once you try them on the water, you'll be glad you bought them.
Question:	Does this fit Honda Odyssey van
Answer:	It is 4mm.

Question:	Will this work for a 2.5 inch hitch that has a 2.5 to 2 inch converter
Answer:	Hi Timm. The Harmony Sea Passage paddle blade is not long and thin like the Artic Passage was, the Sea Passage is shorter and wider and capable of being used with a slightly more aggressive angle of entry as well as casual low angle paddling. The precise blade dimensions of the Sea Passage are 17" long by 7" wide.

Answer:	Yes it does. Good paddle for the price
Question:	What is the difference in the thule t2 pro and this the thule t2 pro xt other than color options

Answer:	You can hold by rear tires, works best with from tires - especially when going off road.

User questions & answers

Question:	will it handle the heavy electric bikes
Answer:	Sorry, don’t know about canoe paddles.
Question:	I understand that this is for a 2" hitch. No question there. However what isn't clear of if this add-on fit with attaching to the t2 pro xt 1.5" base
Answer:	Yes! That's the short answer. The longer answer is that while you can use this paddle float with a greenland style paddle, the float may tend to slip off the end of the paddle since here isn't much of a swell in the paddle blade to hold the float on. I believe it's worth a try. I haven't actually use a paddle float with a Greenland style paddle, but I think that it might work better than some of us expect.
Question:	Does this add on work with the t2 pro? the non xt one
Answer:	It depends on how much you way. A lite person can self rescue with enough volume in one chamber but a heavy person would probably need both chambers inflated to assist in the self rescue.
Question:	In nov. 2016, i purchased the thule 9034 t2 pro on amazon. will this two bike add on work with it? if not, which thule add-on will
Answer:	This is not the small diameter. Not sure if I can get an accurate measurement without a micrometer. But its like a regular paddle--just bent for wrist comfort.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this frame adapter cross-bar lock in place to a specified length? Yes, it can telescope to find a length, but can it lock to that length
Answer:	Thanks for checking with Thule. Yes, if you use the 982XT Thule Frame adapter, will work. The bars are positioned close enough together to fit the juvenile or kids bikes.
Question:	The gate does not sit flush with the collar when supporting the seat end of the bike by about an 1/8". Is the frame adapter still working properly
Answer:	I will attempt an answer. The insertion into the hitch allows a latch mechanism to go into the security hole on the hitch. Then you use the knob dial to tighten the bike rack into the two inch hitch. Once it is very tight, the dial itself has a key lock which once locked makes the dial turn freely without loosening the hitch, thereby making it secure. It seems adequate to me, though obviously a dedicated thief with a hacksaw could cut the latch bar itself.
Question:	Will it work with sixthreezero evryjourney women's bike
Answer:	The updated cradle and strap design should make those parts last much longer.
Question:	how large are the seat post clamp?my wife"s bike seat post is 3/4" or 1" diameter
Answer:	This rack is a suspension rack - so there would be no measurement needed for wheels.
