Thule Revolver Hitch Bike Carrier

Thule Revolver Hitch Bike Carrier description

The Thule Revolver Bike Rack lets you transport up to four bikes on your hitch without sacrificing access to your trunk. If you have a SUV or hatchback, this hitch bike rack keeps your options openpardon the pun. Connect the Revolver Bike rack to your automobile's 2-inch hitch and set your bikes on the T3 Cradles. These cradles lock down your bikes while allowing complete adjustment along the bike arm. Once they're locked in, your bikes aren't going anywhere thanks to Thule's No Sway Cage, the included integrated locking cable, and a STL2 hitch lock. If you forgot something in the back of your ride, no problem. Simply swing down the Revolver Bike rack so you can open the back door. If you need help figuring out if this rack is right for your car, feel free to call our gear experts at 800-409-4502.

Excellent quality, construction and features all of which you should expect from Thule and for the price. Bars are too short though, making it extremely difficult to fit 4 bikes on the rack at once. Bikes have to be jammed against and into each other to fit them all on the rack. I've tried all kinds of combinations of bike size and arrangement but rack is still too small. Anti sway cradles are a bit of a nuisance as well especially when taking bikes on and off of rack, they have to be removed each time to make it easier to get the bikes on and off.

The revolver pretty much meets all my requirements. I needed to carry 3 bikes and have the convenience of swinging it out of the way. I use it to haul our bikes when we go camping. With all the stuff we have inside the SUV, we could open the liftgate without any hassle. Some drawbacks are:1.Its hard to put the bikes in the first holder (closest to the vehicle).2.The cradles scratches your bike labels but works really well especially if you secure the wheels using bungy cords.This is a robust and well made product. It's also made in the good old USA.

In the hopes of traveling with three bikes on my 2005 Rav4, I had a hitch installed and bought the Thule Revolver bike rack. Agreed that it is a superb rack, but the whole purpose of the swing away engineering is to be able to open the back door, and it is impossible with this rack. The door can open only about 6". Very disappointing.
