Weight Capacity of Rola TX-104 4 Bike Carrier # 59401
Question:
Im looking at the Rola rack, and the capacity is listed at 100 pounds ? Is that correct ? I would think that 4 bikes would be more than 100 pounds. The Thule and Yakima racks list capacity at 130/140 pounds.

The listed weight capacity of the Rola TX-104 4-bike rack, part # 59401, is correct at 100 lbs for 4 bikes. The Yakima hanging hitch 4-bike racks do seem to run at a little higher weight capacity for 4 bikes at 120 lbs, and the Thule hanging hitch 4 bike racks are at 140 lbs weight capacity.
I am including links to product pages of the Thule and Yakima 4-bike hanging bike racks. Also, I will include a link to the installation instructions on the Rola bike rack that will list the weight capacity.
