Comments about Thule Snug-Tite Lock II:
This product stabilizes the rack quite well. There is very little wobble in the rack when it's installed. The lock will prevent "thefts of opportunity". However, someone with a crowbar or who strikes it with a few swift blows from a hammer will probably be able to break the lock off. The product is grossly overpriced--a more appropriate and fair cost would be about 1/2 what they are charging. That's a Thule issue, not an REI issue.

Comments about Thule Snug-Tite Lock II:
Effective, but wary wary expensive at [$]. If you get complacent and leave the hitch rack on the car with this screwed into your rack, prepare for an herculean effort removing the bolt--it will rust in--either don't screw it in or remove your rack at the end of cycling season. Also, my Thule bike rack that this fits has a hole too small for a normal sized hitch pin. You'll need to drill or file it larger. Don't lose the keys as did I.Cheers

Comments about Thule Snug-Tite Lock II:
Use of this item gives me a secure feeling. Take care however, not to screw the doggone thing into your hitch, no matter how much the wrench tempts you. It just adds complexity to the whole affair. If you look at the pin that most receiver hitches come with, you won't see threads. Screw the Thule pin in, & you may forget to remove the thing & in two years or so, it'll rust into place--so just slip it in and attach the lock knob. For me, the pin came loose only with WD-40 and an arduous crank on a wrench. Much thanks to local auto parts store for their help.
