Recent purchase of this rack - really solid design, secure attachments that adjust to the vehicle, nice ratchet and rubber straps for the bike frames, great for road / hybrid / mtn bikes. A bit heavy but well-constructed. Video tutorial super helpful for installation!

Best trunk bike carrier. It’s compact and easy to store. Have really great features. Like it has a cable lock incorporated with the carrier. And that’s only one of the great features. Believe me nothing can compare to it.

I bought this bike rack and followed the instructions exactly. The result was a broken rear window on my Volvo V90. When setting it up, I even thought to myself “wow that cable is getting really tight and I haven’t heard a click yet!” So I stopped tightening it and went back and read the instructions again, and then watched the installation video twice, and both said to tighten until you hear two clicks. So I did. And then I heard a 3rd pop, which was the sound of the glass cracking under the mighty pressure of the rubber foot being pushed into the glass by that cable. Do not buy this bike rack unless you like decorative spider webs on your rear window.

I didn’t want to install a hitch on my sedan and am glad I went this route instead. So easy to install and remove; takes like 30 seconds. I would recommend a bike top tube adapter for a secure no fuss hold on the bike.

Easy on & off !!! very safe for Cannondale Topstone

The bike rack itself is pretty slick, however due to the weight of the rack, the rear door hydraulics now won’t stay open on their own. Bummer, I purchased this to not have to take on and off between use but now I will need to due to the inability to use the trunk. Car: 2010 Subaru Outback Sport

I struggle mightily to get this mounted on our Honda HRV. The spring tension is very high, my wife can't even do it. Works fine once it' mounted. It's such a pain I only put it on in the spring and leave it.

Great product. I've used to transport 2 adult bikes on about 8 long distance trips (NY to New England) over the past year. No major issues. Product is sturdy. Bikes are safe. It does take about 20 mins to fit on car and load bikes . Make sure to disable rear camera drive assist, and auto tailgate close. Also slightly blocks rear camera but this is ok

Purchased back in 2021 for my VW Jetta and works perfectly. Only 4 stars due to similar issues to prior reviews, namely the instructions can be unclear. However, once you watch the YouTube video for set up you should be fine going forward! I find I need an extra set of hands to hold the trunk in place when initially placing the carrier onto the vehicle, but afterwards I can complete it alone in about 5 minutes. My car does not have an extreme spoiler, so I haven't had that issue like others did below. Quality is excellent on mine, I expect it to last many years.

Multiple people have tried to get our two mountain bikes onto this rack. There’s no possible way to fit them together. Super frustrating.

Just bought my wife a bike, and in addition to mine we found orselves in need of a 2 bike rack. This item came up a lot in the third party review sites that I frequent so I pulled the trigger. I was not disappointed. Although pricey, the quality of make and overall feel does not make you feel bad about the purchase. The only negatives I can write (which are not really that bad) are that installation was a pain, you absolutely must read directions carefully, and it slightly obstructs the rear view cam - but I would imagine all bike racks of this style would have this issue.

Bottom line is quality build easy to set up Fits my Subaru Outback and Honda civic I would recommend this product to anyone

Returned the bike rack as the arm latches were stuck in the open position so bike could not be placed on bike rack.

I was not advised of this and only instructions are by silent video. Very dissatisfied

I bought the Outway 2 for my Volvo XC70 a couple of weeks ago. The assembly video on YouTube was a very useful guide. The Outway 2 is a very solid, well engineered bike rack. On a side note, I lost the keys on my first outing, fortunately after I had removed my bikes, and Thule replaced the keys quickly. So don't forget to record the key number and to leave one key in your vehicle's glove box. Bravo Thule!
