Thule Verse Hitch Platform Bike Rack

Award-winning rack design

Thule Verse provides superior protection and security for your bikes. The independent single attachment arm secures your bike by clamping down on the front wheel, eliminating frame contact and securing the bike to the rack quickly. With ample spacing between bike positions, on-the-fly wheel tray adjustments, and a new soft-touch attach arm with increased fork clearance, bikes are loaded easily with the peace of mind that they'll be safe on your journey. And with the included theft-deterrent locking cable, security is offered when you're away from your vehicle.
