I'm considering the purchase of a Thule rack system for my Acura TL.
The bike mount I'm specifically interested in is the "Sidearm". I'm
wondering if anyone has this mount, and if so, can you explain how it
secures the bike to the rack? I don't want to have someone walk away
with the bike while it's on the rack. It looks like it secures the
front wheel well enough, but looks like someone could pop the quick
release on the wheel and pull the bike up and off the rack fairly
easily. I've also sent an e-mail to Thule customer support with no
response so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a picture of the Sidearm:
