Hi, have a 2008 Giant Reign 2. Does anyone know if I can use a Thule 591 bike carrier with it? Read a few people saying no and a few saying yes...
Anyone know? If not, any other suggestions for roof mounts that don't require the front wheel removing?
Thanks for any help.
I have a reign of similar age and use a giro atera roof mounted carrier. Similar in design. I don't see why you couldn't use a thule.
I am using that with a 2009 Giant Trance X - no problems.
Thanks, hopefully it will be ok then. I guess I can return it if not happy.
It will fit but you'll need to adjust the base which is bolted to the carrier. This changes the angle of the arm in relation to the downtube and allows the clamp to hold the bike securely. I always try to have the arm at 90 degrees to the downtube.
