Note: The distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the face of the hitch must be 1-1/2" or greater to use this rack.
Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.
This premium, hitch-mounted bike rack lets you transport 3 bikes on the back of your vehicle. It's made of ultra-lightweight aluminum so you can install it, carry it, and move it from vehicle to vehicle with little effort. It has fold-up anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps that make it easy to load and unload your bikes. The cradles are set 7" apart, so there's enough space between your bikes to prevent them from becoming tangled on the rack. It also has an anti-rattle hitch pin and integrated cable with keyed-alike locks that secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle.
Folding Dual Arms with HitchSwitch Lever
The Helium Pro has dual arms that provide your bikes with excellent support and ground clearance during transport.
The upper HitchSwitch lever lets you fold the arms down when not in use.
HideAway Anti-Sway Cradles
The Helium Pro has HideAway anti-sway cradles that secure each bike twice along the top tube and once along the seat post or downtube. This reduces rocking to help eliminate bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact. The soft rubber cradles rotate around the arms to accommodate your bikes' frames. Each cradle is set 7" apart on the arms, so there is more space between your bikes when compared with many other hanging-style racks. The added space helps prevent your bikes from becoming tangled on the rack.
The cradles have grooves on the surface that prevent your brake and shifter cables from getting pinched.
Durable, dual-molded ratchet straps hold your bikes firmly in place on the cradles. You can remove the lower straps and fold the cradles up against the arms to make it easier to slide your bikes onto the rack.
Tilting Rack with HitchSwitch Lever
The rack tilts for easy access to your vehicle's rear cargo area. Just pull up on the HitchSwitch lever at the base of the rack, and lower the rack into position. When you're ready to go, lift the rack up until it snaps into place with an audible click.
The HitchSwitch lever is located right behind the base of the mast. This makes it easy to reach with one hand and steady the mast with the other.
Tool-Free Installation
The knob at the front of the shank lets you quickly and easily install the rack. Just slide the shank into your hitch and turn the knob until snug. The knob deploys an anti-rattle wedge in the shank to help take play out of the hitch connection. It also sets the integrated SnugTite hitch pin into place, securing the rack to your receiver.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The Helium Pro includes One-Key System locks to secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. The integrated cable lock threads around your bikes' frames and inserts into the lock at the end of the left arm. The cable stores inside the mast when not in use.
The lock on the hand knob secures the rack to your vehicle. The hand knob will spin freely when locked so a would-be thief can't operate it to remove the rack from your hitch. The locks are keyed alike so you can use the same keys for both locks. Additional One-Key System locks (sold separately) let you make all of your Thule products keyed alike.
Hitch Compatibility
The rack works with both 1-1/4" and 2" hitches. To use it in a 1-1/4" hitch, simply remove the adapter with the included Allen key.

I recently purchased the Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack and love how simple it is to operate once put together. I've only had it for about a week and have used it twice. It is great not to worry about pins any longer.
My only beef is with the instructions to put it together. I took all the parts out of the box and started to read the instructions. The rack comes in two parts - the hitch part and the rack part. In handling the hitch part, I noticed there was tape on it and didn't think twice about removing the tape. I found out the hard way the tape was keeping a metal bar in place (where the rack can be reclined to open your tailgate). There was also tape to keep the locking mechanism in place. After I removed the tape, the parts fell out and I had one heck of time adjusting the hook to the bar. I ended up taking it to a local bike shop to fix and connect the rack piece to the hitch piece. In the end, I'm not sure if this was supposed to be like this or not. Either way, I wish instructions came with words along with the pictures and told me not to remove the tape.

super rack and great price that included shipping and bc it was shipped to DE there was no sales tax. the item was shipped promptly, arriving in 3 days time; Odelia the customer service rep in Mizzou was outstanding in helping me with the transaction.

Since 2011 this is the 3rd time I have shopped at etrailer. The reason I purchased this new Thule Helium model 9043PRObike rack is that the old Thule Helium model 971XT I bought back in 2011 broke (tightening lock knob mechanism inside the stinger assembly - 2nd time it has broken on me) and I needed a new rack quickly. etrailer.com indeed delivered swiftly! In the meantime I have put in a warrantee claim with Thule on my old rack. I’m sure this will take a while to resolve.
I have already used this new 9043PRO rack and am really please with the rack’s functionality as compared to the old one! Specifically the ease and speed to place and lock it onto the hitch itself. Also like the new design straps as well as the bike locking cable design.
Over the years I really appreciate the efficient, consistent and great customer service I have received in all my interactions etrailer!
Comments
After many uses this 9043PRO performs as well as ever. Also I am considering getting a carbon bike and per Thules web site, this rack is compatible with carbon frames. Very pleased with this purchase.
Ken - 06/28/2021by: Shari 07/11/2022
Some confusion with the enclosed directions from Thule for setup, but once we figured it out, all was good.
by: Jie10/27/2021
Great product! Especially like the lock function so that I can enjoy the bike ride without worrying of losing my bike rack.
by: Lenor06/16/2021
I love this bike rack. A woman can easily put it on and off and carry it to wherever it's stored between usage. It's easy to get bikes on and off and I love the easy tilt to open my hatchback when bikes are not on it. I studied many options before purchasing this and am very happy with the product. etrailer videos and assistance made me feel pretty certain before it arrived that it would be perfect. I have not tried to put 3 bikes on it, but purchased the 3 bike option since it was only a bit more expensive and gives plenty of room for 2 bikes and at least I have the option of getting a 3rd on there if needed.
by: Debra06/27/2020
Great product ultimately!
It took 2 of us 3-4 hours to install the hitch and the new bike rack... overall, it wasn’t complicated, but a little nerve wracking on a new car (so a lot of checking and re-checking instructions), and we had to run to the hardware store to buy a torque wrench.
Also, you have to sort of pry off the bumper from the clips. Apparently there are tools for it, but we used an old plastic spatula knife that worked well (metal will scratch the bumper).
by: Alec08/24/2020
The rack has worked fairly well for us, but it has a disturbing tendency to bounce, and at one point, one of the straps got loose and a bike came part way off on the highway, causing the kick stand to get ground down to a fine point before we noticed. We now use extra care to make sure the straps are positioned so they won't come loose, but just how to do that is not clear from the pictures-only instruction manual.
by: Douglas04/17/2022
Excellent product with TERRIBLE directions. Shows only schematic pictures. Without [online], this would have been a nightmare!
by: Kim 07/15/2021
This bike rack is nice. Very easy & quick to attach or remove from the vehicle. Only complaint is that the bikes sit very high, and that makes it difficult to load on rack.
by: Cathy09/01/2019
I appreciate the fact that etrailer.com had a video on this product which helped me evaluate it and understand how to install it. They accurately represented the bike rack and its installation. I love it! They provided customer service way beyond the sale! A rare happening in today's world.
by: Eugene 04/16/2021
very light, it takes seconds to assemble. I would of given 5 stars if straps to secure bike were designed better. I have to use additional straps to secure it.
by: Tim09/16/2019
Nice rack, super easy assembly and install. Pretty lightweight too !
Comments
The rack has been great, my only issue is the The securing straps loosen frequently, especially for heavier or mountain bikes mounted. I use gear straps as extra security so l wont lose a bike. Maybe consider a different system to use as a strap....
Tim - 09/17/2020by: Dek06/05/2019
It performs as advertised. It is light for a 3-bike rack and is easy to install. The bikes seem secure and stable when attached.
by: Geoffrey 09/04/2020
Really well made, robust, well finished, works simply and well. Handles my three bikes easily: two road and one hybrid. Like the integrated bike lock and really like the hitch stabilizer and locking mechanism. Well designed.
Shout out to etrailer staff. Great customer service, proactive OEM contacts to confirm availability and delivery dates, and keeping me informed re delivery.
by: Jeannie07/11/2019
This is a great bike rack. It’s extremely easy to use and holds bikes securely!! I highly recommend it!
by: Paul07/18/2019
Great product, easy to assemble. Fits on installed hitch with ease and locks firmly. Plan on using it for family bike outings.
by: Peanut071512/10/2020
Lightweight and easy to use. Exactly what I was looking for! Love the locks as well so I can leave my bike on the rack overnight without worry.
by: Gregory07/06/2020
I received my THULE Helium Pro 3 today and I installed it and the only disappointing part of the Bike Rack is the Weight. Thule makes its sound like it so light because it’s aluminum and it’s not.

Lightweight and pretty easy to install.

We love it — great design, easy to get bikes on and off, secure when bikes attached, rides well.

See what our Experts say about this Thule Hitch Bike Racks
- Compatibility of Thule Helium Bike Rack Part # TH9043 with Class II Receiver on 2007 Honda OdysseyThe Thule Helium Pro Aluminum 3 Bike Carrier, part # TH9043PRO would be an excellent choice and would certainly be compatible with a Class II receiver. The rack will also work on 2 inch receivers, so it will work with virtually any receiver hitch, although you will be limited to two bikes if used on a Class I receiver. Keep in mind that the Helium Pro has a weight limitation of 37-1/2 lbs per bike. I have provided a link below to our product demonstration video featuring this bike rack.
view full answer... - Which Hitch Receiver Size is Better 1-1/4 inch or 2 InchSorry to hear about your car accident and your hitch and bike rack being damaged. As far as installing a new hitch, the first thought that comes to mind is, because of the accident, are all the necessary attachment points for a trailer hitch on the frame intact. I recommend asking the shop that is repairing the vehicle if, after it is repaired, would it be safe to install a new trailer hitch. If the vehicle is given the green light for a new trailer hitch, I recommend a 2 inch receiver....
view full answer... - What Does It Mean When A Hitch Accessory Says Good For Class II 1-1/4 Inch OnlyA 1-1/4 inch size hitch comes in two different classes, Class I and Class II. The class rating is the weight capacity of that hitch. The difference is a Class I hitch has a towing capacity of 2,000 lbs. and a tongue weight capacity of 200 lbs. and a Class II hitch has a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs. and a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs. The tongue weight capacity is what is used when using a hitch accessory on a trailer hitch. You would think that any hitch accessory with an 1-1/4...
view full answer... - 3 Bike Rack Recommendation for 2019 Honda CR-VWe have the Thule Helium Pro 3 # TH9043PRO which would be a great option for the hitches of both vehicles mentioned. Since only Class I hitches are made for the 2012 Honda Civic you would need to limit the rack to carrying only 2 bikes when used with this vehicle. The extra weight and leverage of the third bike puts too much stress on the Class I hitches. This rack is very lightweight at 20 lbs and is very easy to install and use as well. Check out the review video I attached for more info...
view full answer... - Can You Carry More Than 2 Bikes Using a Class I Trailer HitchYes, that note is accurate. A Class I trailer hitch receiver is limited to only 2 bikes regardless of the amount of weight it's carrying. This is due to the exaggerated force caused by the additional leverage from the bikes being further away from the vehicle. A Class II hitch, which is also 1-1/4 inches, is designed to withstand the added stress but a Class I hitch is not. So when using a bike rack like the Thule Helium Pro, part # TH9043PRO, you're limited to only two bikes in a Class...
view full answer... - What Does Thule Helium Use as Hitch Pin to Secure to VehicleWhat really holds the Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack # TH9043PRO to the trailer hitch is the anti-rattle wedge. Once it's tightened it's not going anywhere and the lock for the rack that secures it to the hitch controls the wedge so it serves the main purpose of the hitch pin and lock as well. The pin acts as a backup more or less and the fact it can easily pull out by hand would not mean the hitch isn't secure to the vehicle's hitch.
view full answer... - Three Bike Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2012 Volvo XC60One of the most popular, higher end bike racks for 3 bikes that will also fit your 2012 Volvo XC60 if it has a Class II or Class III trailer hitch is the Thule Helium Aero, # TH9043PRO. This bike racks claim to fame is the light weight; only 19-1/2 pounds. I have included a link to a video review for you. It is able to be used on a Class I hitch but you will be limited to 2 bikes based on the hitch capacity when using any bike rack.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Helium Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2011 Toyota Camry with Class II HitchThe distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the back of the shank on the Thule Helium, # TH9043PRO, is approximately 1-3/4 inches. This leaves plenty of room for it to fit the Draw-Tite trailer hitch on your 2011 Toyota Camry. I have included a video link and an instruction link for the bike rack for you.
view full answer... - Comparing the Original Thule Helium Bike Rack to the Thule Helium Aero Bike RackThe original Thule Helium was made of ultra-lightweight aluminum, featured sliding anti-sway T3 cradles with rubber straps. The cradle arms were spaced 12 inches apart (outside to outside). The rack could fold and tilt. It also featured an integrated cable lock and knob for anti-rattle. It fit Class I, II, and III hitches (Class I hitches limited to 2 bikes). The new Helium # TH9043PRO is a complete design change. The upright bar or mast of the rack is no longer a rounded shape. It is...
view full answer... - Does the Thule Helium 3-bike Prevent Theft at Tilt-Down Bolt?There is nothing that prevents someone from unbolting the bolt at the tilt-down bolt feature from the Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack # TH9043PRO. The locking cable is a huge deterrent for a would-be thief, and the thief would have to have a lot of time in order to unbolt the rack from the tilting point. If there is still worry about the security of the tilt-down bolt, I recommend unbolting the rack and stowing it safely in your vehicle when not in use. With clearance or access to the tightening...
view full answer... - Bike Rack Recommendation For A 2007 Honda AccordThe Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Aluminum Item # TH9043PRO will fit your 1-1/4" receiver hitch on your 2007 Honda Accord and can hold three adult bikes as long as the hitch you have installed is rated to hold atleast 130lbs and each of the three bikes you plan on hauling weigh 37.5lbs or less.

I checked with Thule directly regarding a replacement shank, but it has been discontinued for some time. While I know it's not the news you were wanting to hear, the best option we can offer is a replacement with the newest version of the Helium 3-bike rack: - Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack # TH9043PRO This is the newest version of the Helium rack, and will be an upgrade...

- Best Lightweight Bike Rack for 1999 Toyota TacomaThe Thule Helium Bike Racks are a very lightweight bike rack and they fit your 1999 Toyota Tacoma's hitch. The 2 bike version # TH9042PRO is 19 lbs and the 3 bike version # TH9043PRO only weighs 20 lbs. The lightweight design doesn't mean the quality suffers either. Thule makes high quality bike racks and these are no different. This is a tool free installation with an auto-pin that locks to your Tacoma's hitch. They also have a built in cable lock that secures your bikes to the rack. It...
view full answer... - Difference Between Thule Helium Pro 2 and Helium Pro 3The Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack part # TH9043PRO is the same as the Helium Pro 2 Bike Rack part # TH9042PRO except it weighs 1 lb more and holds 3 bikes. The Helium Pro 3 has all of the same great features like the tilt-away feature and integrated locks like the Helium Pro 2. You sure can use the Thule Helium Pro 3 Bike Rack part # TH9043PRO on the Class I hitch if you only load 2 bikes at a time because the extra bike would cause more leverage on the setup and possibly damage the hitch.
view full answer... - Will the Thule Helium Aero Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Racks Fit a Subaru Impreza 5-DoorOn the older version of the Helium bike racks, they would not fit a Class I trailer hitch because of the built-in safety device in the hitch and the fact that the bike rack was for Class II and III hitches. The newer versions should fit in a Class I trailer hitch. Check to make sure your anti-rattle knob is loosened so that it is flush with the shank on the bike rack. Both the # TH9042PRO and # TH9043PRO are Class I compatible. The hitch pin, which is attached to the bike rack, only goes...

The Thule Helium bike rack is the rack most often selected by our customer that purchase the Curt Hitch for their Lexus RX350. I have provided a link to the most popular bike rack selections for the RX350 for you to review.

With that said, your best option because of the small tires on the children's bike is going to be a hanging rack; I recommend using the Thule Helium Pro # TH9043PRO. This is a 3 bike rack that folds up easily for storage and can be...

There are some factory-installed hitches that have very shallow placement of the hitch pin hole and this means not much of the rack's shank will be supported by the hitch. Thule is always careful to avoid any conditions that could present any kind of potential hazard...

You'll just slide the shank of the rack into the hitch receiver, and the locking pin will automatically slide into place. Then tighten the knob to take up any slack between the shank and the receiver. Use the key to lock the knob, and you're done. Easy as can be. If you'll be transporting women's bikes or bikes with sharply-angled top tubes, you might also consider a frame adapter bar like part...
