Expert Answers about Folding Bikes


  • Is Tilting Function of Thule EasyFold XT Lockable
  • The hinge that allows the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # TH903202 to fold is not lockable. It's not a common issue that a thief or troublemaker would tilt bike racks to cause damage so it's not a feature our bike rack manufacturers make lockable.

  • Folding Bike Rack that Might Fit Past Rear Spare of Jeep Wrangler
  • The Swagman bike rack part # S64683 that you referenced has a distance of 12-1/2 inches from the center of it's hitch pin hole to the nearest portion of the rack when folded down which we have found is normally enough clearance to fit past the spare of a Jeep Wrangler like your 2019 model but you'd want to measure your vehicle from pin hole to outside portion of spare to verify this. When this is folded up there's only 6 inches here which most likely would not be enough clearance. In general...

This would be measured rearward from the trailer hitch receiver hitch pin hole. This particular rack does not fold up against the rear of the vehicle.

  • Recommended Bike Rack for a Class I 1-1/4 Inch Hitch
  • I am happy to help. It looks like your 2013 Insight has a class I 1-1/4" hitch which limits your options. I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack item # TH903202.

  • Folding Platform Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2007 Honda Odyssey that has Clearance to Fold Up
  • With the hitch on your 2007 Honda Odyssey you will have a distance of 5 inches from the center of the hitch pin out to the furthest point out on the rear bumper. So you will need a fold up rack that when folded up will have a distance of greater than 5 inches from the center of the hitch pin to the nearest upright bar. There is a rack available that has enough clearance, but the Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack # S64665 only has a distance of 3 inches when folded so it would not work for you. You...

  • Weight of the Thule EasyFold XT 2 Bike Platform Rack TH903202
  • The Thule EasyFold XT 2 Bike Platform Rack, # TH903202, weighs 45 lbs. This is fairly moderate considering the weight capacity of 65 lbs per bike.

  • How Far Does the Thule EasyFold XT Stick Out From the Back of My Vehicle?
  • Since the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 does not actually fold up towards the vehicle it sticks out 35" from the center of the hitch pin hole even when in its most compressed form. Considering the Thule T2 Pro XTR # TH96TX sticks out 63" from the hitch pin hole when in use. The difference in the footprint when carrying bikes is going to be very significant. When comparing the T2 Pro XTR, that carrier folds up towards the vehicle whereas the EasyFold XT folds up lengthwise as you noted....

  • Per Bike Capacity of Thule TH903202 EasyFold Bike Rack
  • The Thule # TH903202 EasyFold bike rack has a 65 lb per bike capacity, so as they sit currently, your bikes would be too heavy. However, I'd recommend checking the weight of the bikes with the batteries removed. If removing the battery brings the weight each bike to 65 lbs or below, the rack would be an excellent choice for you. If you can't get the weight of the bikes below 65 lbs, I'd go with the Hollywood Racks RV rider, part # HLY64FR. Despite its name, the rack can be used on passenger...
