Thule 958 Parkway 2-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver)

This is a great bike rack for the weekend warrior

Read all the reviews and got this bike rack, we are going to use it on two different vehicles. The rack arrived in two days and was ready to go out of the box, followed the directions and attached to vehicle without any problems. Put the bikes on the rack and check to see what else I needed. The bikes did not move once attached, also the bikes have a heavier frame than racing bikes so they fit tighter to the rack. No problem. I purchased a locking pin for the receiver and a lock system for the bikes to lock to the rack, the few extra dollars for locks was to insure no theft on trips and make the vaction and fun time worry free. This is a great rack for those who don't want to spend a lot to get started. Excellent choice.

Nice Rack

This is a very solidly built Hitch Mount bike rack. It does exactly what it claims (holds 2 bikes) and it does it well. I know that I will have this mount longer than I have my current vehicle. I would definitely recommend this product and would buy it again.

Thule Rack exceeds expectations

The rack arrived within a week of ordering. Assembly took less than 5 minutes and was simple to do. Rack fits 2" receiver perfectly. A bolt is screwed into one of the receiver holes to fasten the rack. Finger tight would probably do but I take a 3/4" wrench to snug it up. It comes with a strap that keeps the bikes firmly fastened to the rack. Rubber hold-downs work well and can be adjusted to fit most bikes. Rack is lightweight and easy to insert into receiver as well as remove. Although rack can be lowered via a hinge to allow hatchbacks to open, you are advised to not do it with bikes attached. All-in-all, a rugged, lightweight, simple rack that gives you confidence that your bikes will arrive when you do without damage.

The "bolt in" hitch is a bit more inconvenient than a pin. If you want to lock it, you must order a special locking bolt. Bolt-in provides a little more stability, however. I keep a ratchet wrench in my truck now. The rubber or neoprene fasteners slide inward on the support bars for the outside mounted bike during transport. Although it has happened with each use, it has not caused a problem, yet. Its okay, it gets the job done.

Great Rack, Sturdy

This bike rack worked perfectly for us. My husband loves his bike and put a lot of extras into it. I was surprised that he approved of this rack and had no complaints. We have taken our 2 bikes on it several times for approximately 150 miles each time. We priced around as well and the value was very good.
