Question:
I have a Thule ProBar Evo bars on my trailer that have a spread of 41.5 inches between centers. Will the Thule Fastride roof rack work? If not can you recommend something else. Thanks

I recommend using the Thule UpRide Roof Bike Rack # TH599000-FB with your ProBar Evo bars spread 41.5" on center for your trailer. The UpRide will fit crossbars spread 24"-43" while the Thule FastRide # TH95JV requires 18"-36". The UpRide will also allow you to leave your front wheel on and is rated for up to 44lbs per bike while the FastRide is only rated for 37.5lbs per bike and requires you to use the correct skewer which could be different if you carry different bikes for different riding situations.
