This bike rack works perfectly. A few trial runs and questions answered by bike shop made the bike loading and securing the bikes easier.

Disappointing Purchase

I've had this bike rack for about nine months now and the more I use it, the more I dislike it. So many moving parts and it's very cumbersome. With the two clamps side by side between the frame, if you don't turn your pedals just right, the bike gets knocked out of position and you need to keep readjusting. I'm also not impressed with the clamp itself. The only position in which I can secure it has already damaged the bike frame (picture attached). The lock seems very flimsy too. Already the key gets stuck unless I jostle it a bit. Even locked, it doesn't seem secure - like one good pothole and it could easily pop open. I've resorted to a bike lock as a fourth measure of security since I don't trust the rack. The ramp to load and unload the bike. Not a bad idea, but definitely room for improvement. Depending upon temperature, the ramp requires brute force to either insert or remove. I miss the arm hooks of my old rack. They were far more secure and didn't do any damage to my bike. The Thule EasyFold XT is the most disappointing purchase I've ever made.

Short Holder Bar Is Too Short To Secure E-bike

Clean design and easy to use. The Clamp system length does not work well with Specialized Turbo Vado E bikes, as the reach on the short arm is not long enough to adequately secure the forward bike. The long arm does secure the rear bike well. The short arm needs to be about four inches longer in order to properly grab the forward bike. Thule should produce more variety in arm lengths in order to properly accommodate two e-bikes that both have step over frames. I am considering ordering a replacement long arm, cutting the arm bar to the required length, and cutting and threading the internal rod to length, to allow it to work with my two step-over frame E-Bikes.

Loading Ramp Way Too Short

The rack itself is nice what I have an issue with is the little plastic ramp. I own an SUV AND A SILVERADO full sized truck. That ramp is too short I thought you sold one that was 4 ft. The only one I see is 3 ft. I need this ramp for my e bike.

Don’t Buy It

I’ve had the EasyFold XT for about a year. The clamps are difficult to use, it is difficult to angle them to get a good fit. After about 15 uses the rubber on the clamp tore… May have torn when my bike fell off the rack. I will not use this product anymore.

Don’t Depend On Ramps Or Warrant

We’ve had this rack for two years and it has been great but now the ramp won’t attach. We called Thule and they said we have to fill out online form which requires uploading 3 videos or pictures which is not easy for all people. Seems like they are purposefully making it hard to submit a claim on the lifetime warranty.

Great Bike Rack

Bought this a month ago, used it one time, looks like it does the job well. But make sure your car has a hitch!

A-1 Product

Simple, fast and safe. Light weight but holds e-bikes.

Upgrade From Other Racks.

The only complaint about this rack is the price but it is actually worth it to me. It has a superior design and toe hitch with the pin lock is better than the otd pin and nut one or key. My wife can actually load the e bikes with the hidden ramps and wheel it around rather than lugging around the old. The hinge foot pedal works effortlessly and allows access to the rear hatch of our X3.

What Is The Deal With The Clamps?

So frustrating to get the clamps onto the bike that I am considering buying a van to transport 2 ebikes. Thule - is there a better clamping system I could buy that will work with thus expensive EasyFold XT?

Not For Lectric Ebikes

Purchased this bike rack in February. The clamps do not fit the square/rectangular frame of the Lectric bikes and are not adjustable for the length from the frame to the bikes. Very disappointed in this product.

Excellent Bike Rack For Ebikes

Bought this rack after I bought my first ebike. Comes fully assembled in the box, under 50 lbs, hitch is wheeled to make attaching to hitch easy and moving around easy and accommodates ebike weights. All around, exactly what I needed.

Easiest Rack Ever

I simply love everything about this rack. Easy to install on hitch, easy to load bike with the included ramp, lock downs are secure. Never a fear of the bike falling off. Took it to Crested Butte CO for its maiden voyage and it passed with flying colors

Not Suitable For 2nd Bike If 1st Bike Is An E-bike

I have an electric bike that has the battery built into the approx. 45° angle down tube. We couldn't find any place on the U shape that would allow for attachment with the long arm to a 2nd traditional bike as the e-bike blocked everything up. To secure the 2nd bike we used the wheel straps and a rope to tie the bike to the frame. Happily it was for short medium medium speed distances, I would not do a highway or long distance trip with a 2nd bike secured in this manner. My positive feeling is that the locking system is terrific.

What A Joy To Use!

Great bike rack - best features that make loading and carrying bikes easily!
