ThuleEasyFold XT 13-Pin Bike Rack for 2 Bikes Silver

Having read the following 1 star review from Andreas it put doubts in my mind. I checked his opinion with the e-bikeshop and they reassured me it would take my 2 step through Moustache Samedi X Trail e bikes and so I bought it.I don’t do reviews but Andreas’s comments are so misleading that I thought I had to write just to help people who like me might be put off by Andreas’s review. Simply stated, it’s a great bike rack which takes my two bikes comfortably. No problem.“This bike towbar carrier has much to recommend it: clever design; it folds for easy storage; integrated lights; the wheel straps & buckles work really well, the optional loading ramp is great for heavy e-bikes; etc. The BIG problem is that this rack will not take my e-bikes that have an open 'step through' frame, and much wider frame section. The Thule bike arms have very limited movement/ articulation. After buying the Thule Bike Frame Adapter 982, and after much trial and error, I was able to load and secure my first e-bike onto the carrier, using the long Thule bike arm. This leaves me with the short Thule bile arm, which of course cannot secure a second bike. So at the moment this bike carrier is a an expensive and useless piece of junk sitting in my garage. Either I will have to sell it at a loss, or I have to spend more money trying to get additional bike arm(s) to fit both my bikes. I also had various problems fitting the carrier onto my car and campervan - but I won't go into details here. So you need to check this carrier will a) fit your car(s) and b) fit your bikes. BUYER BEWARE - TRY BEFORE YOU BUY !”

Looks like quality, well made piece of kit!!I have fitted it onto the toe-ball just to make sure it does actually fit, with only a small amount of an adjustment so that it grips the ball securely!! Not actually used it to transport my EMTB any where yet,, when I do, I will review again!👍

This rack must be the best e-bike rack on the market. It may not be the cheapest but having ordered a cheapest rack at first and found within an hour the adjuster was useless I send it back to Amazon and ordered this one instead. It arrives fully assembled and is so easy to fit to either my Motorhome Towbar or my BMW X5. It folds up into a very neat package and then fits into my boot. In conclusion you get what you pay for and this is worth every penny.

We wanted an easy to install, easy to use and robust carrier for our two ebikes. After much deliberation and research we decided on this Thule model and are we so glad that we did! I was surprised at how easy it was to install and how easy it is to use. However on consideration should i have been surprised by the quality of a Swedish product? No not really. Ok it is not cheap but you rarely get quality and cheap in the same sentence. Absolutely delighted with the Thule carrier.

An excellent and convenient carrier, and a good price from Amazon. Many towbar companies charge more for it. I was concerned about where to store a carrier when not in use, but this folds up and fits in a corner of the garage. It is very quick and easy to set up and quite easy fix the bikes on, though you may have to fiddle with the frame holders a bit to get the optimum position. One ebike would not fit on the recommended inner position because the short arm would not reach the available frame region, but it was OK on the outer position. Seems to work fine with the very heavy ebike (25kg) plus one standard bike. Not tried 2 ebikes yet, but should be OK according to given weight limits. I have always been put off getting a towbar + carrier because of the expense, cannot manage a roof carrier, and hated the fiddly “hanging off the boot” carriers. Honda Civic won’t take the latter anyway because of the hatchback glass design. Covid19 entrapment persuaded me to bite the bullet, and I am very pleased with the sheer convenience and simplicity of detachable towbar/foldable carrier system

After years of lifting bikes onto car roofs and bike racks that hang on your tailgate or boot lid (effectively making the boot redundant) I have seen the light!!!Easy to use and I mean easy, bikes are so secure and above all stable.Don’t like the look of where you have parked? No problem, just fold and unhitch carrier and put it in the boot.Loaded bikes on and want to put something in the boot? No problem just press foot on carrier and lower bikes out of the way to access boot, amazing.It’s not cheap, but this is definitely the way to go. We put 2 Cube ebikes on, and when it’s going to be to much to put them on you can get a ramp to wheel them on.Did I mention the light bar? No issues of bikes obscuring indicators/brake lights etc keeping you safe.

Can't say more highly of it, worth every penny.Other carriers I would be checking at the back of my car loads of times but this one just once in a while.Great peace of mind and I would fully recommend to anyone

This thule is easy to use. It carries e bikes well. What i like about it. It has a carry handle, so the centre of gravity puts your hand in the right place. You put it on the tow ball, lock it in place. Then you can plug the lighting lead in. Then unfold the carrier. A very good design.
