Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style
great! works really well, and a lot easier to attach than I anticipated. We drove with bikes across the country from south west all the way to North east. solid rack!
The Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rake for 2 bikes is a good product. I used it to transport my mountain e-bike. I choose this particular unit because it can handle the weight 2 of bikes (non-e-bikes) and the weight of my e-bike is equivalent to weight of 2 bikes. Note: Must readjust the straps after mounting the bike to the rake.

SeaSucker Mini Bomber Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Fork Mount - Vacuum Cup Mount
I just bought a new car that's a sedan. I didn't want to install a hitch and use the bike rack I had so I started searching for roof racks. I came across this set up from Sea Sucker and started researching. I found some really good reviews and very little negative. I actually thought about this for a year or so before settling. This rack is as advertised that once it is mounted, it's not coming off! It will take a couple times installing to figure to understand balancing the bike and lining the forks up but then it will get easier. Make sure you understand the size thru axle adaptor you might need. It is explained easily for reference to your bike. I also like not having a "permanent" rack on top. Customer service was above and beyond as always with updates and follow up. First class operation! On suggestion, I got the cable and trunk mount anchor for security. Like anything else, if you follow directions and take care of this rack, I see it lasting several years.
I was skeptical about using this on my Model 3, but it works really well. Both bikes attached firmly and did not budge the entire 2 -1/2 hr ride. Even drove through some rain and the seasucker was unaffected. There was some noise generated from the handle that is designed into the main component when driving. However, I just put some gaff tape over it and the noise disappeared. Highly recommend.

Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount
This is definitely more of a 2 bike carrier vs 3 bikes. I had to take the front wheels off two bikes to get three bikes on this carrier. Also, it rubbed the paint off on the trunk of my Subaru legacy.
Way too light duty for what is advertised. It seemed to be made out of 1/2 inch electrical conduit. I would never put three bikes on that rack. I only had two bikes on the rack. While on trip through Idaho the wind was so strong that one of the bikes partially blew off the rack. We traveled 1,800 miles and upon arriving home I actually sawed the bike rack up and threw it away so that no one else would use it and cause an accident. I've already found a different brand that is HEAVY DUTY and I will stick with that brand.

Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Exactly as advertised, transported 2 Trek bikes on on the back of my 2016 Toyota Avalon without issue - travelling from Boston MA to Green Bay WI. Outstanding price buying this item as open-box. etrailer's website is the best I could find on the web with name brand racks, automated compatibility vehicle check, and they they shipped overnight.
This rack fits well on our 2015 Toyota RAV4. There are six attachment points, each with a coated hook on the end to fit around the trunk lid. Once mounted and tightened, the rack is comfortably stable and solid. Bikes are easy to mount as well, with just a few straps. Note that a BMX bike, due to its small geometry, will not fit. Also of note, the hooks on the ends of the two straps which lead out in the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions will chafe the car's paint. I wrapped those in electrical tape in order to minimize the effect. Overall, a good choice for a trunk rack.

Thule OutWay Platform Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Adjustable Trays
Pretty straight-forward on how to affix to trunk, any questions are covered nicely throughout the instruction booklets. Once fastened, everything is confidently snug. The only thing I was initially concerned about was the potentiality that the clamps might not fit around my frame (being a thicker-framed MTB). I actually found a YouTube video of somebody reviewing the item and they actually showed some good ideas for how to fit the bike securely to the rack. Once you get that dialed-in, it's as sound as a pound. Haven't had any issues with the rack and don't even worry about it or the bike while driving. Worth the purchase.
Originally I was looking to put a hitch on my 2021 jeep renegade sport for a hitch mount bike rack, after seeing that I would either have to remove seam sealer and drill holes in my rear subframe (this is not a good option living in the rust belt), or remove my entire back bumper off and cut holes in it for the factory style hitch, and still have a rack that is illegal and blocks my license plate/brake lights turn signals I decided to look at different options. A roof rack is a little too high to lift a bike on comfortably. This thule outway platform 2 takes about 10 minutes to install correctly, and is solid and holds the bike securely, and the rack locks to the vehicle, and also the bikes lock to the rack no extra purchases required (comes with 2 keys and plastic spoiler supports). I have driven 80mph over potholes and bumps, also on extreme hills and has held securely.

Saris Bones EX 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Truly a great product! The bike rack is a huge improvement over the one it replaces. I had lost confidence in it, as it was always loose and sloppy when in use for long distances. The materials are high-quality, with very dense plastic arms, a metal main tube, and strapping that can be pulled quite tight. Overall a very solid piece of equipment. Each bike has three points of attachment, which keeps them very stable. The ratchet mechanism is much easier to manipulate when compared to web straps, which always seem to work loose, but are difficult to work with when removing a bike. The feet, which get placed on the glass and in the license plate well on my Subaru, are flexible and substantial. When placed according to the online fitment guide, I can still use my backup camera, at least when no bikes are on. I can also drop the arms easily when not carry bikes, and storage off of the car will be very easy. For my wife's step-through frame, I acquired the Saris Bike Beam, which makes placement on the arms very easy, and seems to be very stable. These products are clearly well engineered and manufactured. Great customer service and fast shipping from Etrailer combine for a great purchasing experience. I highly recommend this item!
Great product so far! Easy to install and adjust. A little tricky to load 2 large handlebar mountain bikes and a third smaller bike, but we just turned them sideways with the front wheels taken off. We had racks on bikes which were probably the impediment. We got them on though! Love how it folds up easy for quick storage. Works great on 2014 Subaru Outback.

SeaSucker Komodo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Fork Mount - Vacuum Cup Mounted - Black
The Komodo was the perfect solution for carrying my road bike on the trunk lid on my old BMW Z3 Roadster. I also purchased the front wheel Hogg and or works beautifully. Seasucker's Komodo Is a very high quality product that looks like a piece of art. I'm likely to get more compliments on the Komodo rack than my bike or car!

Rhino-Rack XTray Pro Cargo Basket and 2 Bike Carrier - Steel - 58-1/4" x 41" - 165 lbs
The Rhino Rack has been the perfect addition to my Outback. It looks great, and I love the built-in through-axel bike mounts. It's nice not to have to have an additional mount for my bicycles! Is this the perfect cargo basket?
Phenomenal Product. We purchased for our 1200 mile road trip in August 2019 to Sedona the coast and back home in Northern California. Everything was safe and secure our entire trip & no problems other than lots of bugs to clean off our rack & baskets when we arrived at our final destination. We would highly recommend this product and the excellent customer service at etrailer.com.

Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
A very good, inexpensive, lightweight bike rack. Folds nicely and doesn't interfere with the hatch opening on our 2023 XC40. I wouldn't consider this a heavy duty rack, more suitable for short trips to the riding trails. Good for urban living, as opposed to 4 wheeling out to a mountain destination. Several plastic components. Two things I dislike is 1) the hitch pin lock is cheesy plastic, and because of the threading bolt on the rack's hitch, you can't use a sturdier 5/8" locking pin. and 2) the cotter pins should have a small security cable.
I am very pleased with this hitch! Fit my bikes very nicely. Easy to assemble. Rack looks great on my Mazda cx-30. Customer service is very responsive.

Thule Gateway Pro 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
It was supposed to come with 4 small straps and 6 large straps. However, there were only 3 small straps in the package, and the package was very much intact when we received it. The rack fits well in our 2018 Nissan Pathfinder SV. Although, it was so difficult to make 1 adult road bike and 2 kids road bikes to fit. It more comfortably fits 2 bikes to be honest with you. And our bikes are thin and light.
It is a good bike carrier but if I had it to do again I would bite the bullet and buy a trailer hitch for my Jetta and go with a hitch mount. I believe it is more secure.

Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
The only negative is that the "Bike Safety Strap" was not included in the box. Beyond that the rack was in good condition and fit well on my car.
Easy to install. Holds my mountain bike in place well, no issues.

Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Performed perfectly on a 140 mile round-trip in my 2017 Acura MDX. It took me a few tries to position the anchors inside the top of the hatch, but I got the hang of it and the rack did not shift at all while driving 50-60 mph on the highway.
After searching for a bike rack for my 2015 Hyundai Sonata, I settled on the Yakima Fullback 3. I initially wanted a roof rack so I could carry my bikes and kayaks, but my options with the panoramic sunroof were limited and expensive. Part of the Sonata trunk lid is plastic so I was very hesitant to use a trunk mounted rack. It seemed that most Sonata owners were using a trunk mount rack, so I placed my order on a Sunday evening. etrailer shipped it the next day and I received the rack on Thursday. It took about 10 minutes to unpack, read the instructions and install it. I put both my mtb and road bike on and went for a test ride. The rack was more stable than the hitch mounted rack I had on my old vehicle, and the best part was it didn't scratch my paint. It keeps the bike pedals far away from my bumper, and it was one of only a few racks that would clear my factory spoiler. It folds up and I can stick it in my trunk while I ride. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the rack is fairly heavy. It would be nice if Yakima could find a way to lighten it up while keeping the rigidity and price where it is now. Otherwise, I'm completely satisfied with the rack and the service from etrailer.

Thule Apex XT Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
Ordered on Thursday and received on Saturday and was kept informed of status of order all along until was delivered. Great customer service, received bike carrier in good condition with no issues. Real sturdy built it feels solid and doesn’t move when driving down the road. Well worth the investment on a quality bike carrier. Purchased for use on a 2024 Subaru Outback and it fits perfectly.
Received order promptly. However, the product looks a bit "old". It appears the manufacture date is Nov 2021, which may not be super surprising for such a product. It is just that the item looks a bit banged up, with some of the labels and the Thule logo a bit smeared from either age or shipping shifting.

Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack - Wheel Mount - Clamp On - Aluminum
Great quality bike rack when paired with the Rhino-rack cross beams. When I use the bike rack and cross beams they are attached to my 2016 Subaru STi and I have drove it fairly aggressively with the bikes on the roof. Everything has stayed attached just fine. The only thing I will point out is that you should check the attachment hardware every few uses because it will occasionally vibrate loose, nothing serious but if you never pay attention to this your bikes may fly off your roof! Ez fix though. I rate the rack 10/10 in my experience.
Couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision to go with this bike rack, was on the fence between brands but Rhino Rack makes it beyond easy to use, from installing it on the racks, to daily use is just unbelievably simple! 100% would recommend to anyone looking into bike racks. Also huge selling point for sure is that it covers a very wide range of tire sizes where others are very specific!

Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Perfect for my Toyota Highlander, thanks guys, great job
First rack I've ever purchased I misplaced the end bar used to lock the bikes onto the rack. Can I buy another one?
What our customers are saying:
"First off I was having trouble finding a 2inch hitch for my Hyundai Tucson which was needed for my hitch mount bike rack. Your company and one other came up in the search results. Your price was best, shipping was inexpensive, and you shipped immediately. I am not a very big person so my boyfriend helped me install it. We gathered all the right tools and had it installed in 25 minutes. It looks like it came with the car. Thank you!"
