Phew... not great at all but also alot great'r than it could have been. When I read your comment about it coming off I just had to go and hug my bikes and tell them it was going to be okay! Still a beauty of a bike tho! Edited August 27, 2017 by hellocolour BSG and Caerus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted August 27, 2017 Share Oh crap - what Thule was it and how did it fail? Thule VeloCompact 925 The circled knobs were tightened, and the bolt inside the knob was tightened with a allen key. They became loose somehow so the U-Shaped bar fell over with the bike. It did it twice For some reason that bar was not seating properly. The bike shop assembled and fitted it for me. I was probably stupid for not checking myself, lesson learnt. The bike shop did rectify the issue. Edited August 27, 2017 by Caerus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I'm certainly in love It could have been a hell of a lot worse, just as well there was no one to close ehind me and I was able to stop as quickly as I did.

DJR Posted August 27, 2017 Share No the story of my new bike being dragged along the road after my new Thule failed at 100km on the freewayYou know the best thing you can do with a new bike is to give it a scratch right away because then you get over it quickly and you can ride it without stressing about scratching it and enjoy it more..........but you sure took that to a whole new level!

BenReaper Posted August 28, 2017 Share Just ordered these ,was to cheap not toI also got to get another one of those bars. I've got one on my bike at the moment, but stupidly cut it down to 720mm when I originally fitted it as I thought that was all I needed. Now I seek at least an extra 20mm on each side.
