Expert Reply:
The Thule T2 Pro XTR 2-bike rack # TH83JV weighs 52 lbs alone. When used with the 2-bike add-on # TH9036XT, the now 4-bike rack weighs a total of 96 lbs. The total weight of this setup is not a direct part of the it's weight capacity. Worth mentioning is that the capacity isn't just the shank or the frame of the rack and is instead also including the hooks that hold the wheels as well as the wheel hoops and the straps.
