^ both wheels off and I have small bike 52cm. my seat post sticks out a lot. but if you take that off, it is fine
easier if you just use sea sucker, we had it up to 100+ in EU, nothing flew off.

"Word on the street" is that a SeaSucker is good up to 115 on I-95 South, in 45F temps..."but you didn't hear that from me".

I'll just throw my 2 cents in here.

This company is based in my FL home town and has a good reputation.
With that said I did have 1 sea sucker fail yes they made good on it.
I sold it shortly there after

I have a 62cm bike. Miss the rain gutters where you could really get a grip with the Thule.

Sea sucker is my only option. Unless porsche comes back with a rear hatch mounted one.
