Thule FreeRide cycle rack no. 532 (x 3)

The U bolts are designed to fit around bars up to 32mm wide by 22mm deep.

'T-track' aerobar adapters are also included which fit most T-track aerobars. These work with all the aerobars we sell - Atera, CRUZ, Thule, Whispbar.

Some dealer supplied aerobars need bigger adapters, notably all BMW bars. If you have BMW bars you'll need to order a set of 889-3 adapters for every FreeRide 532 you order - these are listed below.

The FreeRide 532 holds bikes up to a maximum weight of 17kg.

There are two locks - one to lock the bike to the carrier, and the other to lock the carrier to the bars.

Exchange scheme: Roof mounting bike carriers are part of our unique 90 day Exchange Scheme - see the tab for details. The bottom line is that if you aren't satisfied that the FreeRide 532 fits the bill you can exchange it for an alternative roof mount, or a tow bar bike rack.

Useful information:

You can top-and-tail the bike carriers to take up less space on your roof bars.

Deciding which bike carriers to buy is not always easy, especially as you may not have had experience of using bike carriers before. We hope that our buying guides provide useful guidance about which bike carrier 'strategy' will be most appropriate for your circumstances, as well as highlighting the best features of particular models. We also have troubleshooting FAQs - for example, some customers struggle at first to fit four bikes onto a tow ball carrier, and wonder whether a different carrier would allow the bikes to be spaced wider apart. (It won't, but we have some good tips which make bike fitting much easier.)

Our bike carriers Exchange Scheme covers roof mounting and tow ball mounting bike carriers only. Rear door mounting / strap on carriers are not included, and nor are roof bars. It allows you to exchange within 90 days of invoice date. Most exchanges are for roof mounting upgrades, or are tow ball carriers with very basic tilting systems being exchanged for easy to use sliding / tilting carriers.

These are the rules of the bike carriers Exchange Scheme:

• You are allowed one exchange only.
• The original equipment must be in "as new" condition, subject only to fair wear and tear.
• The replacement items must be different models from the originals.
• The replacement items must not be part of a package deal or be from our Bargains section.
• Roof bars are never part of the Exchange Scheme.

This is how the exchange scheme works:

• We charge in full for the replacement items, including the appropriate carriage charge and a charge for any packaging needed for the return of the originals.
• We pay the return carriage costs.
• When the originals arrive back here we refund you for their invoice value, but you won't get back more than the invoice value of the replacements. In other words, if the replacements are cheaper than the originals we won't be giving you "extra cash back".
