The new add on works perfect. In addition to increasing the space between the bikes the `` XT '' versions have over twice as much side to side adjustment so the bikes can be off set more. I do n't believe that there would be a problem mounting 4 bikes unless perhaps trying to carry four fat bikes with 197 rear ends. The only issue I have now is the weight. I suppose there is reason to make this whole system so heavy but it 'd be nice if Thule came out with a super light Alloy Premium version... or go carbon fiber like the bikes!

[ As my youngest learned to ride and began joining us on the trails we needed a better way to transport 4 bikes. Going with the T2 Pro( and the add on) is so much easier than the “ hanging ” racks, particularly for four bikes. very solid and stable over bumps and on the highway. If there ’s a downside, it ’s that its pretty heavy in the four bike configuration so less likely to Want to remove the rack from the car frequently.( Two person job for sure.). The integrated cable locks making stopping for a bite possible although they ’ re not long enough for both wheels and frame so for overnight stops With expensive bikes an additional locking setup would probably be wise. You can also order cylinders for the extension to match the base rack so you ’ ll only need to carry one key( strongly recommended.

Really solid and safe bike rack for 4 bikes. To assemble it, the bolt welds protruded too much to slide into the receiver. I had to grind them flush to get the add on to slide in. It can be a 2 or 4 bike rack but it will take some assembly and disassembly to make it work

The shorter tongue on the kayak trailer does not fit well under my recumbent trike carrier. Mine is a different situation than most; therefore, I do recommend this.

I was looking for a rack for my families mountain bikes. The local Dicks had a Yakima Doubledown set up for demonstration and I was able to `` play '' with the rack and really liked the operation. The store also had the Thule Trailway 959 model, but did not have it set up for demonstration. Because of this I had to go back home and do some online research before purchase. Both of the units were priced identically and the operative features were basically the same( straps, bolt insert for hitch, cradles, release mechanisms, included tools, etc.). Warranties for both units were lifetime limited. I noticed that the Thule had predominately positive reviews posted online on most sites, while the Yakima's reviews were mixed. The one thing that sold the rack for me, was that it was MADE IN THE USA, while the Yakima was made in[*]. The fit, finish and quality are excellent. Assembly was simple and consisted of assembling the upper and lower arms and inserting( 2) bolts. The instructions included were adequate for even the mechanically UN- inclined. The rack feels more stable in the hitch than the Yakima did in the store demo hitch. Additionally, the included anti sway cages lock in the bikes sturdily to prevent movement. I will add, that two of my bikes are full suspension. Of these two, one is also a womens bike. All of them fit with minor `` tweaking '' during loading. This was a big worry prior to purchase. I do wish that Thule would break the `` lock '' barrier and start including locks with their racks. I 'm sure that this would n't cost much when purchased in huge quantities by Thule, and I know it would be a great selling feature. After all, no one wants their$ 200+ rack lifted by someone with a wrench. All in all I am very happy with my Thule rack and as I tend to be fairly brand loyal, will probably stay with Thule products.

This bike rack was purchased for use on a 2011 Subaru Forester with a 1 1/4 '' hitch. We also wanted a rack that could be used on my son- in- law's 2 '' truck hitch, so this filled the bill. The rack comes with the smaller size, and has a full sleeve that fits over it to increase the size to 2 '', and is attached with a hex screw for a great fit on either size. The anti- sway cages that come with this rack are different than the ones on other models, or the ones you can purchase, and are of a much better design. They attach easily and can be removed easily and work very well. The only thing that I do not like on this rack, and also on most other racks that are available, is the inability to use a previously owned hitch lock. This rack attaches to your hitch with a bolt and nut, and does not accept the bar with lock of any other manufacturer, only the Thule lock. Having to screw the hitch on and off when not using the rack, is very inconvenient, but not inconvenient enough to make me give it any less of a rating.

It's very sturdy and if you following the weight order and driving( stop every 200 miles and check your straps) instructions, it's an excellent rack! I should have ponied up a while ago to get one sooner. Overall, we are very happy!

I ’ ve had this rack for a few months, it stays on my car 100% of the time. Some of the negative reviews confuse me because I think the rack does exactly what it ’s designed to do. With any Thule defect issues I ’ ve had with any products, Thule has always stepped up and corrected the issue in a timely fashion, they just require proof of purchase. So far, I ’ ve only had to load 3 bikes, but it worked like a charm. I love the functionality of the swing arm, giving me access to my trunk while loaded with bikes. Our other car has the traditional Thule fold down rack. It works too except when we have bikes loaded. I would highly recommend this rack if the features meet your needs.

That would make it easier to load the bikes. I think it is very secure when bikes are on it. Almost forgot the second thing I dislike about it, is the Locking pin. It is n't a pin, its a screw bolt. You have to buy the malone locking pin if you want to lock the Locking pin. I have a 2023 Traverse and the Locking pin has to be just screwes in just perfect for me to get the lock part on, because if its screwed in to much I ca n't because it is to close to my electrical plug.

It is large also once you have the two pieces connected together. My one warning: I think that it is confusing with the NV 2. 0, NV Base 2. 0, NV Base 2. 0 Add- On, and NV 2. 0 Add- On. I purchased the NV 2. 0 base thinking that it was the initial part of the rack that holds the first two bikes then bought the NV 2. 0 Add- On for the next two bikes. While they do connect together, they do n't match. One is shiny black and the other is matte.

[ The Thule Verse is a fantastic bike rack that combines sturdiness, security, and simplicity. Designed for easy transport, it securely holds two bikes with a strong, hitch- mounted design. It has a great tilt- down feature that allows trunk access while bikes are still mounted to the rack. Additionally, the large ratcheting arms and rear wheel straps keep bikes secure even on bumpy dirt roads. The tool- free installation is another big win!
Car hitch accessories are additional components designed to enhance the functionality of your vehicle's hitch. They can include items like bike racks, cargo carriers, and towing equipment, making it easier to transport various loads. These accessories are important for maximizing the utility of your vehicle, allowing you to safely carry bikes, trailers, or other gear for outdoor adventures.
There are several types of car hitch accessories available, including bike racks, cargo carriers, tow bars, and hitch-mounted storage solutions. Each type serves a different purpose, catering to specific needs such as transporting bicycles, carrying extra luggage, or towing trailers. Understanding the different types can help you choose the right accessory for your activities.
To determine the right hitch accessory for your vehicle, first check the hitch class and weight capacity of your vehicle's hitch. This information will guide you in selecting compatible accessories that can safely support the weight of your cargo. Additionally, consider your specific needs, such as whether you need to transport bikes, cargo, or trailers, to find the most suitable option.
When selecting hitch accessories, it's important to consider features such as weight capacity, ease of installation, and adjustability. Look for accessories that offer secure attachment methods and durability to withstand various weather conditions. Additionally, features like foldable designs or swing-away arms can enhance convenience and accessibility.
Using multiple hitch accessories at once is possible, but it depends on the hitch class and the combined weight capacity of the accessories. It's essential to ensure that the total weight does not exceed your vehicle's hitch rating. Additionally, consider how the accessories will interact with each other to avoid any interference during use.
Maintaining car hitch accessories involves regular inspections for wear and tear, ensuring that all connections are secure and free from rust or corrosion. It's also advisable to clean the accessories after use, especially if they have been exposed to dirt, salt, or moisture. Proper storage when not in use can help prolong their lifespan and functionality.
