So this is a great bike rack if you're looking for something that is solid, easy to use and will keep your bikes safe and secure as you go on your trip.One of its features which I'm super excited about since it does it so well is to tilt away. To do so pull this lever right over here and just let it slowly fall and you can see that angle of tilt away, which is really good because even with limited clearance here on our Forester, you can see that you can definitely open up your hatch, access the inside of your car, maybe put away groceries or get your bike helmet out all without having to take off your bike, because you can just tilt it away. And if you want to lift it back up, all you need to do is lift it back up and then snaps into place.The way our bike is mounted to our bike rack is by this wheel strap as well as this wheel mount. So the wheel mount is nice because even if you have it on your carbon frame bikes, your alternate frame bikes, it's perfectly fine because it's mounted by the wheel. more

Now the downside to hanging style is it gets a little bit more crowded.

Zach: Hey guys, Zach here at e-trailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Helium two-bike platform style rack on our 2020 Subaru Forester. This is a really good way to carry your bikes. I like it that the bike rack's light weight. A lot of racks, the more secure it is, the heavier it gets. But this one does a good job of keeping it at a lower weight so it's easy to use when you're taking it on and off the vehicle. more

Thule Hitching Post Pro Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Subaru Forester

Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2020 Subaru Forester we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Hitching Post Pro 4-bike rack. Right off the bat, in my opinion, I think this is going to be a really great way to carry multiple bikes. This rack's going to give you a lot of bang for your buck and be very functional on the back of your Forester. Not only is it going to look good, I think where it's going to sit relative to the back window, you're not going to have any issue seeing out the back as you're driving down the road. But, you still are going to be able to keep an eye on your bikes, which is a good thing, especially whenever you have multiple of them back here.It's really simple how the rack is going to work. more
