 Well Built - Easy to use July 17, 2008

This is a well-built bike rack. Heavy, but not so heavy that this 5' 4" female can't handle it by myself. I have only used it for "1" bike so far, but feel it should easily accomodate 5 with a little "creativity." (based on previous reviews).

Just got back from a 1600 mile road trip with 5 bikes in the rack hanging out the hitch of my wife's XC90. My bike is the only one of the five that fit perfect, two of the bikes were my wife's and my daughter's and two were my sons' all of which did not have a cross bar to sit over the rack's two bars in a "pretty" manner. With some patience and wiggling all five bikes fit and were strapped snug over the rack. It held really well even through the hills and mountains of northern Georgia. The bikes come off easily and we were able to unload. The only problem is that if the rack is fully loaded with five bikes you better have a good reason to get into the back of your SUV because it takes three people to gently let the rack down and to put it back up.
 5 BIKES ON 1 RACK??? June 23, 2007

Our 3 daughters are now riding bikes. I went to the local REI store to check out this 5 bike rack. Fortunately one was on display so I asked a gentleman at REI if I could experiment by loading 2 adult and 3 childrens (girl) bikes. He explained that we had to use an adaptor bar for the womens bikes. After fumbling to get those on for about 10 minutes we attempted to load the bikes on the rack. A manager came by and was concerned that we were getting pedals caught up in spokes. There is not enough space for all those handle bars. He said that a Thule rep was coming by in the next few days and he planned to ask about this. I would like to hear from those of you who have had success with this configration.
