I have a thule bike roof rack which holds the bike by the front forks. Unfortunately now I have hope
discs (xc4s) the caliper fouls the rack. I think I just need to cut a bit of metal off of the rack.

Has anyone else done this and any tips?

Ours has a swinging clamp piece, we just altered the angle that it swings when we took a friends
disc braked bike with us ..

I've got two Thule Tour 510's going spare now that I've ordered a tow bar mounted kit (new car) if
you're interested?
