Bike Roof Rack

Wow-my first post!

Does anyone know who makes the Bike roof rack---looks similar to Thule and some Yakama. But I lost a rear snap on cover and that allowed the rear tire tie-down to slip off. Used a bungee cord as replacement, but this created problems when driving back from Delaware---there was too much play and the rigid upright would not stay attached to the downtube of the bike: this creates a bike going from upright to flat on it's side -still attached by the tires to the rack but hanging over the edge of the Honda.

Im looking to see where I can get a few simple and fragile replacement parts instead of buying a whole new rack for the bike. Is this possible?

Thanks

Welsome to the EOC think pad.


You can order parts for the Honda bike rack from your dealer or online at a number of online Honda parts dealers.

Replacement parts

ORS Racks Direct sells replacement parts for both Thule and Yak racks => http://www.orsracksdirect.com/car-racks-accessories.html. If you don't know who made your rack send ORS some images. They've provided me with a number of replacement parts.
