solid rack at a good price. I bought this instead of a 4 bike platform rack to minimize the torque on my car. E trailers shipping was fast and free.

This is the Rack to get if you want a verticals bike rack. There are several other racks on the market that have similar functionality. I would say what sets this apart is as follows.

1- packaging. Thule does the best Job packaging their items, I had recently purchased another vertical rack and it was slightly damaged because a large heavy metal rack can bang around if not packed correctly. This Rack had come packed very well and no damage to any items, as you would want it when purchasing a new item that is being shipped to you.

2- assist function both up and down. Other racks have assisted function down or none at all. This rack has assistance both ways and if you have 3 bikes on the rack, one pull on the lever and the rack pull it up for you.

3- ease of assembly. Assembly of this rack was probably one of the easiest things out there. Just watch the assembly video and you should be done with in an hour with absolutely no rush.

4- hitch stability. The rack comes with an adjustable hitch wedge built in and it makes a huge difference. No need for a hitch stabilizer to be bolted on. The attached hitch pin and adjustable wedge make this very solid and stable when transporting your bikes.

Lastly, honestly think about the cost in comparison to other racks. It may cost just a few hundred more, but the assurance that you have thousands of dollars of bikes on the rack that are safe is well worth it.

This is a fantastic rack. Look up on YouTube for other people comparing other racks like the Velocirack or JB Rack (I bought the JB one and it was a mistake, thin steel and not even close to as stable. Steel bent with assembly and flexed when transporting bikes). When I purchased the Thule revert the comparison to the other vertical rack was night and day. Expensive mistake but at least now you know.

I watched the e trailer video on assembly which made putting it together a breeze. The rack does all the things I was hoping for. It has all the little niceties dialed so raising, lowering, loading, and unloading my heavy eMTBs is no problem. A very well built rack!



by:

Expensive but totally worth it. Easy enough for my wife to load bikes on the rack.



by:

We previously owned a Thule XTR 4-bike platform rack and thought it was the fastest to load and unload compared to other 4+ bike racks. This is from seeing other folks loading their bikes on trails. Not until we got Thule Revert, which is by far the easiest and fastest to load and unload. The assist is a game changer, even though it makes it hard to lower an empty rack to access the rear hatch. The angled stem helps avoid hitting rockes and clear uneven terrain on a lower clearance vehicle. The thick rubber bands are super fast to put on and off. The height is just right to simply roll bikes into baskets without lifting. Make sure to get a torque wrench and follow correct torque specifications.

Useful rack, easy to tilt up and down.
I'm
using a Hollywood rack valet to hold it when off the vehicle with a motorcycle cover.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Hitch Bike Racks

  • Can Thule Revert Bike Rack be Used with Honda Odyssey
    Hey Alan, yes the Thule ReVert bike rack part # TH83VA can be used in your Honda Odyssey 2 inch hitch. In the picture I attached you can see that the bikes back wheel is held higher than the shank of the rack so ground clearance should be good but it also depends on the wheelbase and wheel diameter of the bikes.

  • Could Hitch Extender Allow Thule ReVert Bike Rack to Clear Tailgate
    Hey Brad, yeah you would need a hitch extender with the Thule ReVert bike rack part # TH83VA to allow the tailgate of a full size truck to open. For that we have the Gen-Y Hitch Extender part # e88YR which is 8 inches long. What kind of bikes will you be hauling?

  • Will the Curt Wall Mount for 2" Hitch Accessories Handle the Weight of a Vertical Bike Rack?
    It sure will Adam. The Curt Wall Mount for 2" Hitch Accessories item # C97DR has a 350 lbs capacity. It'll definitely be able to handle the weight of the Thule ReVert Vertical Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # TH73VA that weighs 75 lbs or the 6 Bikes item # TH83VA that weighs 87 lbs. The Curt Wall Mount item # C97DR comes with two hefty lag bolts, as long as you land them on a stud you'll have no problem with the weight of your bike racks. There's two hitch pin hole slots as well so you've...

  • Will I be Able to Open my Sprinter Van Doors The Thule ReVert Mounted on my Hitch
    Thanks for your question, Jeff. That’s a great question, I wish I had a definite yes or no for you! Based off our demo video of the Thule ReVert rack # TH83VA on a 2021 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we weren’t able to fully open the tailgate. The tailgate on those trucks measures about 22.5". I’ve included a screenshot from the video so you can see how the tailgate rests against the rack when open. From our measurements, the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole on the shank to...

  • Which Bike Rack Gives More Clearance on a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica? The Thule ReVert or T2 Pro XTR?
    Hey Jill. The Thule ReVert Vertical Bike Rack for 6 Bikes item # TH83VA is going to give you better clearance than the Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # TH69TX. However, you can't use the Thule ReVert item # TH83VA with your Curt Hitch item # C65CR. Due to the downward weight placed on the receiver, the Thule ReVert item # TH83VA requires a hitch with a minimum 500 lbs tongue weight capacity. The Curt Hitch item # C65CR, you installed on your 2018 Chrysler Pacifica, only has...

  • Can Thule Revert Bike Rack Carry Gravel Bikes
    Hey Steeve, when the Thule Revert bike rack part # TH73VA is folded down you'd have some access to the rear doors being open but would not be able to fully open the doors. This rack is perfectly compatible with Gravel bikes as well. Same as the 6 bike version # TH83VA.
