Question:
The Thule Apex XT 2 Bike Rack # TH9024XT you were looking at is very easy to remove and reinstall on your 2020 Subaru Forester. To install the rack into your hitch you will place the black hook into the pin hole of your hitch, tighten the anti-rattle knob until the rack is secure, and lock the knob with the provided key. To remove it you will unlock the lock on the anti-rattle knob, turn the knob counter-clock wise until the black hook in the pin hole can be removed, and then slide the rack out of the hitch. The Thule # TH9024XT weighs in at 37.5lbs, and will add 29-1/2" to the back of your vehicle with the arms up, and 16" with the arms folded down. This rack is very compact and will not take up a lot of space inside of your garage when you need to remove it. I included a video of the Thule Apex XT # TH9024XT for you to take a look at.
