  • Great Customer Support
Style: 5 Bike
Bought the 5 bike version in 2019 and it has served well carrying 5 bikes (2 adult and 3 kid) on several 6+ hour trips across major highways. I've always found the rack easy to use and very sturdy. Last time I installed it the plastic knob broke upon tightening. Contacted Thule and they quickly resolved the issue by shipping me a new rack. I was shocked how quickly and simply they resolved my issue and stood behind their product. ... show more

  • Generally good, but. . .
Style: 4 Bike
This is my second Thule bike hitch rack. A good product, in my opinion, but. . . I am not an engineer, but the straps provided to secure the bike to the rack appear to not be anywhere near sturdy enough. On my first use of the product, I could see in my rear-view mirror while on the freeway that one of the straps had come loose--I was able to pull over in time because the second strap held. The strap that did not hold appeared to strip/pull right through from the buckle--which is a plastic type material. I have remedied this situation by using ball-type bungee cords to reinforce the bike to the contact point on the bike rack. So, in addition to the strap provided by Thule, I use 2 additional bungee cords to secure the bike to the rack. Since then it appears to be safe and secure. On my old Thule rack, I would use bungee cords also to reinforce the rubber straps that came with the old rack. On this new one, however, I was assuming that the straps were new and improved and that reinforcement would not be necessary. ... show more

  • Easy to install

Sturdy and easy to install. All the directions were in pictures. I would have liked some written instructions but I understand the universal language of pictures. Good looking and very strong

  • What's not to like?
Style: 4 Bike
For years and years, I've used a roof rack and bike trays to carry my bikes. They've served me well and never once gave any problems. When I recently bought a Subaru Forrester, it became a pain in the butt to lift and fasten my bikes to the much higher roof than a regular car. So, I had a trailer hitch installed and bought the Thule Apex XT 4 bike carrier. The Thule is built like a tank and is almost as heavy as one! There is no doubt in my mind that it won't last forever. However, when test-fitting a bike, I could not, for the life of me, open the straps to remove the bike. After about an hour, I finally got the straps released and removed the bike. I thought to myself, "if it's going to be this hard, why not just continue using the roof system." The genius who came up with the instructions should be immediately terminated. Diagrams are sometimes helpful but some written hints and tips would have saved me (and others) from frustration and achy fingers. After about 30 minutes of searching for alternative ways to strap in the bikes, I discovered that the ratcheting mechanism needs to be CLICKED into the bike mounts. Kudos to all who figured this out from the supplied instructions! Once these pieces are clicked into place, the straps release as they should and I breathed a sigh of relief. For those who still have the instructions, look at 6C. You will see the word "click," but what does that mean? A short sentence would have clarified that. Everything else was pretty much self-explanatory and easy to accomplish. There's just one more con that everyone should be aware of: please, please, please do not entrust your valuable bikes with the supplied cable lock. A determined thief can get through that thin cable in a matter of seconds. In reality, there's no lock available that can stop a thief intent on stealing a bike, or anything else, if they want it bad enough. So, I really do love this rack despite the two cons mentioned above. I wanted to give a 5-star rating but deducted one due to the lack of adequate instructions and the rather worthless cable lock. If you're on the fence about buying a bike rack, I'd put Thule #1 on your shortlist. The positives far outweigh any negatives. ... show more

  • Straps are impossible. Don’t purchase
Style: 4 Bike
I have been using for over a month. I would not purchase this bike rack. The straps are nearly impossible to get off the bikes when you have them securely tightened. It will take you nearly 10-15 minutes to remove a single bike. The plastic straps are poorly designed.

  • Thoughtful design
Style: 5 Bike
The media could not be loaded. This is a great bike rack. Very study. Thoughtful design allowing the rack to be able to tilt back to open a hatch without having to remove it. Swappable Thule lock system. Only negative is the placement of the bikes is too close to fit 5 bikes. We were able to carefully squeeze 4. Also, set up instructions could be clearer. ... show more
