whole post working or not

That's post has been used to resurrect another one already. I service Reverbs with IGUS bushings and new seal regularly. Have some odd parts here and there, but not the whole post at the moment

You can also buy one directly from Thule? After removing bike from rack I placed it on the rack platform took bike into the shop, came out and just drove off. Needless to say never to be seen again.

Have you tried using it on the top tube?

Does the knob turn itself loose? Thats rather interesting, cant say I have ever experienced that, but my wheel straps work themselves loose. The rod on the inside is just a very long gutter bolt, so maybe you could try a thread bar to replace it.

Having gone through this exercise I can tell from my search & experience its actually something that is not lying around. Good Luck though.

I have a new end clamp from the newer Thule EasyFold XT just use your existing  shaft/spring/knob.

Will cost you a chocolate can collect in Centurion if this will work for you.

You get 2 version's of this. The rack frame is 25mm or 30mm the above pic is older 30mm and below is new gen 25mm. So not all arms are cross rack compatible.
