Hi folks - my googlefu is letting me down, and the forum search doesn't seem to have it covered.....

I have a venerable Thule Euroway that must be at least 13 years old......I have just bought EpicJnr a L Scott Scale, and it's too long (only just) for the wheel straps. I can't see XL straps or extenders for this rack on Roofboxes or Thule, so just wondering if anyone had found replacements anywhere? or are there other solutions. The tyres are still in the wheel wells of the rack, so could I just use some other locking strap to secure (not sure that feels completely OK)

TIA

Simon

Thanks Hooli, had seen those, but they are for more recent racks - so not sure they would fit mine...might have to buy a set and see
