Epos 3

Great light weight bike rack. Love how easy it is to install and take off and move about using the built in wheels. Bought the ramp and lock which makes it even better. Great overall and nice upgrade to my old Thule bike rack.

Decided to get a hitch mounted bike rack. This is compact since it folds up and under 40# so easy to carry and has 2 wheels you can roll it on. I have a 2" hitch receiver, need to be sure you tighten the adaptor in the hitch so you don't get any sway as you drive. With the steel enforced attachment straps hope that distracts anyone from trying to cut a bike off the rack. There are locks, to lock the rack to the hitch receiver and the bike to the rack for security. Easily carried an ebike, hybrid, or mt bike. Bike rides solid in the rack and have had no sway or movement. Only downfall so far, is the rack doesn't fold up on the car so it sticks out too far when the car is in the garage so have to take it off. But, so easy to remove and put on. As a senior I wanted a bike rack I could handle to move around based on its weight and ease of use into the future.

I grabbed this to accommodate my family's 3 bikes, one of which is a 60 lb. e-bike with tire fenders. As far as I could tell, this is the only rack on the market that could both handle the heavy bike and not use a "tire grabber" like most do (you can't use those on bikes with fenders). I've driven multiple long trips through the Colorado mountains with this loaded up and never had any issue with stability, etc. I also maxed out the weight capacity one day with 3 heavy e-bikes and had no problem whatsoever. It is really well designed and I love how it magically kicks back to swing the bikes out of the way with no effort. Bikes are locked up really well to the rack and the rack locks to your hitch with the same key. I've never felt the need for an additional cable lock but you can use one if you choose. I did add the lighting kit which I'm really glad I did. The peace of mind knowing your brake lights and blinkers are visible on I-70 is well worth it. That kit also includes a mount for your license plate on the very back which keeps police happy. Side warning with the lighting kit: be very careful when installing it to follow the directions exactly when routing the wires underneath. You have to do it in a very specific way with slack at the correct points to make it work right and Thule uses wordless illustrations in their manuals... It just requires some patience and focus to interpret each step properly. Beyond that, I didn't plan on spending over $1000 to get bikes on my car but am really happy with this overall. I actually look forward to using it, its a really cool piece of gear.

This is a fantastic rack. Simple to attach to my vehicle and easy to load two heavy electric bikes onto securely. I use this on my Ford Mustang Mach-E and even with two bikes on, the ability to fold it down and access the rear cargo area is simple. Highly recommended for anyone transporting bikes and wants the securely attached and locked down.

Very easy to put on and take off my car. Once it is fully attached, it does not wiggle. I have used it on overnight trips and it held up very well. I suggest getting the light attachment, my e-bikes make the brake light difficult to see. So the light kit is a big plus.

We purchased this Thule Epos bike rack because we already had another Thule bike rack for our regular bikes, however the other rack doesn't support the weight of two e-bikes. The ratchets work well (much easier to get on and off than the ratchets on our other rack) and the rack is relatively easy to install. We use a 1-1/4" hitch, so this rack will accommodate that size along with a 2" hitch. Because it's a platform rack, there seems to be a little more jiggling of the bikes than with our other rack. Other than that, it's a solidly built Thule -- and we trust the brand.

We wanted a bike each for two e-bikes (Lectric XP4s 62 lbs each without battery) that was light enough for us to life as we get older. This fit the bill perfectly so we ordered. It weighs 48 lbs and we can handle it easily. We also bought the ramp that allows us to load the bikes without lifting. They fit perfectly without touching. They strap down securely and there has been no damage to the paint on the bike. The straps have no sharp edges. The ratcheting tight feature is a real plus. The straps each have a slot to place them in when not in use so they don’t flop around. Very well designed each and we are very happy with it

Love the set up, easy to put bikes on and attach. HOWEVER huge problem, it will not fit in a 1.25 hitch receiver no matter what I tried. Yes I took off the 2 inch adapter. I had to buy an adapter to increase it to 2 inch and put the 2 inch part back on the rack. Which now dropped my carry weight in half extremely disappointed!!!!

This is by far the best Thule bike rack that I have purchased. I have to ev bikes and they fit perfectly and safely on rack. Many great improvements from previous generations.

suitable for my bikes.

Fácil de instalar y las bicicletas quedan muy seguras aparte de buena calidad que tiene el producto

This bike rack is lightweight , easy to install & is versatile . I needed something I can lift , small to store & hold 2 e-bikes. Also, my garage is small so it needed to fold against the hatch to fit in the garage .

Very well built easy to install top quality expensive but wont regret
