What reviewers say

Owners of platform hitch racks in this class generally praise the wheel-tray design for protecting frames and holding bikes firmly on rough roads. The tilt and fold functions and the built-in locks are commonly called out as practical. Weight and the 2-inch-only fit are the usual complaints.

What people mention

WeightCriticisedAt around 52 lbs, owners say lifting it on and off the hitch takes effort.

About the Thule T2 Pro XTR Platform Hitch-Mount Bike Rack

The Thule T2 Pro XTR is a platform-style hitch-mount rack that carries 2 bikes. There are 12.5 inches of space between the bikes, and the trays adjust side to side so the bikes don't touch each other. It fits wheel diameters from 20 to 29 inches and tire widths up to 5 inches, so it can carry anything from a kid's BMX bike to a 29er fat bike.

An integrated cable lock secures the bikes, and an included receiver lock secures the rack to the vehicle. The HitchSwitch lever tilts the rack down for access to the rear of the vehicle. It also folds the rack up when it's empty. Built-in wheels make it easier to move the rack when it's off the vehicle.

The tool-free AutoAttach system handles installation and removal. The rack fits a standard 2-inch receiver. The T2 Pro XT add-on, sold separately, increases capacity to 4 bikes.
