Recommended 2-Bike and 3-Bike Trunk Mount Carriers and Locks for a 2004 Honda Accord Sedan or Coupe

Question:

Is there only a 2 bike trunk carrier that you recommend or is there a 3 or 4 bike carrier available for a trunk carrier? Also, do you recommend the bike adapter bar for womens bikes as a must? What locking system do you recommend? Thanks.

We carry multiple trunk mount 2-bike and 3-bike racks that will fit a 2004 Honda Accord (Sedan or Coupe). Our 4-bike racks are not trunk mounted and require a trailer hitch.

I recommend the trunk mount Thule Passage 2-Bike Carrier # TH910XT or the Thule Passage 3-Bike Carrier # TH911XT for your vehicle. Both are reasonably priced for the highly rated Thule brand with anti sway technology. Please check out the attached demonstration video.

A bike frame adapter is not always a must depending on your specific women's or alternative bike frame. However, to ensure a secure fit and smooth ride, I always recommend one. I would go with the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter # 64005, if you have a women's bike frame. The Swagman adapter is cost effective and easy to use.

I also recommend the Thule Passive Security Strap for Trunk Mounted Bike Carriers # TH533 and the 6' Long Thule Cable Lock w/ One Key System Lock # TH538XT. This security set-up will work with both of the recommended Thule 2-Bike and 3-Bike carriers.
