Review on Set of 4 Rubber Straps for Thule 534 Bike Rack Cradle - Replacement Accessories for Enhanced Performance by Hco Cortes

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Broke on the street. If you love your bike, don't buy this

Original strap. I wish I could pause for a second in my excitement at going on a bike ride, but I assumed it was part of the feature. In 15 minutes I was already on the Autobahn to go on vacation. At 70 mph the bike's belt broke and my bike became highway fodder, I watched it bounce and wriggle until it stopped. Thank God it didn't hit another car because that would have made the situation even worse. Of course, my bike was also missing after the restoration. I put it back on the stand, managed to buckle it back up with the next lag. 15 minutes later. BROKEN AGAIN! I put it back on the bike rack and tied everything up with twine (hooray, camping supplies). If you love your bike, don't buy it. Buy OEM. Not worth going so cheap. painful lesson. I hope someone else can escape my fate.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
