Bike Rack Recommendation to Upgrade From Thule Hitching Post Pro
Question:
I had this thule pro 4 bike rack from you for my 2012 BMW x5. You I stalled hinge too. At that time, the rack I bought can not folding. Now I plan I use this rack more often, so a folding rack is more convenient. The rack I have still in very good quality. Do you have a trading in option so I can trade in my old style one with a new folding one? Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
To upgrade from the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR to a nicer bike rack I recommend selling your current one on your end (we don't have a buy-back system) and then upgrading to the Thule Apex XT # TH9025XT if you're looking to stick with a hanging-style rack.
The Apex XT offers better clearance between the bikes as well as integrated locks and easier tilting/folding functions.
Attached is a review video for you to check out.
If you're wanting to swap to a platform-style rack just let me know what kind of bikes you have and I can make a recommendation there as well.
