Thule EasyFold XT 2‑Bike Hitch Rack

• Hitch-mounted bike rack, supports 2 bikes. 

• Fully foldable for compact storage and easier handling. 

• High load capacity: up to 60 kg total, or 30 kg per bike, so it’s great for e-bikes / heavy mountain bikes. 

• Detachable bike arms use Thule AcuTight torque-limiter knobs — click when the right torque is reached, helping prevent over/under-tightening. 

• Wheel straps have adjustable pump-buckle design for securing wheels. There’s an optional XXL Wheel Strap Kit to handle longer wheelbases or very fat tires. 

• Smart tilt pedal: you can tilt the rack down (even when bikes are loaded) to access the trunk / tailgate. 

• Integrated wheels + carrying handle make it easier to wheel the rack around when it’s not mounted. 

• Loading ramp is included and folds into the rack — makes loading heavy bikes much easier. 

• Comes with locks: both for the bikes → rack and rack → hitch receiver. 

• Compatible with 1.25" and 2" hitch receivers. 

• Can be used on off-road / gravel / forest access roads, per Thule.
