Thule 914XT Roadway 4 Bike Hitch Carrier – Reviews

The bike rack is very nice. It is a little harder to put all four bikes on it but works great otherwise.

This rack works as advertised although with some (ladies) bikes it’s a tight fit getting the bike frame on the rubber mountings. It was easy to install. The rack mounts far enough away from the car that on a Lexus SUV, you can still open the rear hatch without tilting the bike rack. Also, if you need a tailer hitch, take a look at U-Haul. They have custom hitches for many cars that simply bolt on (without having to remove anything from the car). Much cheaper than what local repair shops quoted to adapt a generic hitch.

We bought this because we were going on vacation to Ocean City, MD from upstate NY. We had 4 bikes that we wanted to ride while we were on vacation.

This worked out wonderful. The boomer bar gave the necessary room to store the bikes as if they all were boy bikes.

After attaching the bikes, I only used the anti-sway attachment on the bike closest to the vehicle and the one on the outside. I used the straps that came with the carrier and then added 8 bungee cords to secure it better. It really did not seem to need the bungee cords, but I was paranoid, and this was my first use with it. I still would recommend using bungee cords as an added precaution.

The carrier seemed very sturdy and well built. During the drive I stopped ever 200 miles (give or take) and che

Purchased product to relace an older 3-bike Thule, the strap on type, for 1000-mile trip to the Georgia mountains.. The rack functioned flawlessly and was the envy of my fellow traveler who had borrowed a Yakima which did not fold down. I am continuously impressed with the quality of Thule products and will be a customer and advocate for life.
