Question:
I am looking for a sturdy bike rack for 3 bikes to carry on long trips. 2 road bikes and one trail bike. I like the THule ones but wondered if there are those you have you would recommend as well as the Thule ones. Thanks.

I have used every bike rack we carry here at etrailer. Yes, Thule is a great brand but it would not be my first pick. I LOVE the Kuat NV 2.0 which comes in matte black # BA22B Metallic Black # NV22B or Gunmetal Gray # NV22G. You can add on to it to carry the 3 bikes you want. They come in the three colors Matte Black # KU97FR, Metallic Black # KU47FR and Gunmetal Gray # KU67FR. The NV 2.0 is a great option for almost any type of bike. It works with most fat tire bikes, kids bikes, most electric bikes and of course your road and trail bikes. Just make sure each bike is under 60 lbs.
This rack is Extremely solid and looks really good behind any vehicle. I like the wheel hooks, the tilting lever, the anti-rattle system and of course I like that it comes with locks for every bike and the rack itself. I don't like messing with sloppy bike cables that don't store in the racks.
Check out my video to get an idea of what it looks like and how it works!
