Great demo, all I wanted to know. Thank you.
I'm seeing them for £849.00 online what's your price please.
I'm impressed
Dont be unfortunately. The design kind of falls apart with loading other bikes. Major pain in the ass to get pedals out of the way, handlebars, and find the limited mount points that will work with all the obstacles in the way.
Seen the price of this thing?
Whould it fit a BMW X3 M40i with swivelling towbar?
Yes
Is it fix4bike hook installed on the car?👀
Can't believe it attaches to a ball hitch. That's pretty cool but looks quite wobbly.
Anyone looking for this style bike rack look at the Buzz Rack E-scorpion it’s a 1/3 of the price. As are all there other models and very good quality.
Is this way better than the easy fold one? Also it looks like you’re using the spherical mounting system to the car. Is that included with the car or can it be mounted using standard hitch?
You really need to have a look at the BUZZ RACK range of tow ball mounted racks. Most importantly there are locks to secure the bike to the rack and 2 ratchet straps per wheel. It does everything else the Thule does. I looked at this rack and the Buzz Rack. Sorry but there was no contest and I'm a fan of Thule products.
Hello! Which Buzz Rack rack do you use? I am very happy with the Buzz Rack E-Scorpion 1, but unfortunately, the E-Scorpio 2 does not seem practical because you have to place one bike behind the vertical support, which could potentially scratch the car.
Thule racks are too narrow. In this video, you can see that even an average bike tends to fall off the rack already during the installation process. With my Kenevo XL (133 cm wheelbase), it is impossible to securely transport the bike on this rack. It is already challenging to place the bike on the rack without it falling off on one side or the other, but I would really like to see a moose test with this Thule rack and a long wheelbase bike. Thule racks are simply not suitable for the newer generation of longer-wheelbase bikes. The pricing on the other side is very 'advanced' ;)

This costs over one thousand dollars? What kind of freaking planet am I living ?
Here in Asia it’s going for 1500 dollars!
You forgot to plug it to the car, so all the lights works
If you were really paying attention you would see it already was.
All good and well, you’re a guy, about 100kg is my guess.
Now… show me a 5 feet girl of 50 pounds (metric) doing it and I’ll be convinced.
Over $2000 in Australia for a bike rack. I could buy a whole new bike with that. Don’t think so. Cycling is becoming a bit elitist.
Why am i breathing hard cuh?
Too short for the bike's wheelbase? It rolled backwards because the wheels were NOT properly and evenly supported. NOT even with the top tube clamp and front wheel strap almost in place! NOR would the average e-bike owner be able to lift their 30kg bike bodily onto the ramp. NOT impressed at all! Must try harder. A shame, because I am still looking for an e-bike rack for my long wheelbase, fully suspended '45'. NOR do I need a rack for two bikes. It just makes it very much bulkier and heavier due to duplication.
I mount a Trek Rail on mine. Really happy single bike rack.
