Thule Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying More than 2 Bikes

Question:

We have this bike rack for 2 bikes. Is there anyway to make it hold 3 bikes? Thank you so much for your time. We are going to Alaska and our grandson is going also. We want to take his bike also.

The part number you mentioned is an older Thule bike rack and there isn't a way to add a third bike to it's carrying capabilities. Best option would be a similar Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR which can carry up to 4 bikes.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
