Thule  Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2013 Toyota Prius c TH9001PRO

Today in our 2013 Toyota Prius C, we're doing a test fit of the Thule Raceway Pro, 2-hanging-style, trunk-mounted bike rack. Now that part number is TH9001PRO. Now we've already got our bike, and our rack already on the vehicle, we're first going to show you how we strap our bike down. So we've got two cradles and then three straps, two on the top here, and one of those is our anti-sway strap in the back there. To remove those we're just going to pull down, and lift up. And we save the anti-sway strap for last because it does keep that bike from swinging back and forth and possibly damaging your vehicle. So we can take our bike off and set it off to the side, and a great habit to get into, anytime that you have any kind of straps on your bike racks to always replace them. And now we can take a few measurements. With our arms hanging out here, we're going to add about 27 inches to the back of our vehicle. Now we do have the option, if we're parking in close-quarters parking spots we'll want a little storage, we can lift up on our grey level here on the arm, and fold those down. more

We also have this available in a three bike configuration, that part number is TH9010XT. See the bottom of the pads here are ribbed, we want those ribs to be onto the paint surface. It's going to let dirt and debris kind of run out of there in case any gets under there, it gets trapped. We'll then place the upper pads onto our rear windshield. The lower pads go right under the top here of the bumper. more
