Versatility and strength for transporting any bike
The Thule Vero Hitch Platform 2-Bike Rack (9012600) is designed for cyclists who demand the best. Combining the rugged durability of the Thule Verse with the innovative telescopic bike arm from the Thule Epos, this bike rack seamlessly blends the best features to carry virtually any bike—mountain, road, kids’, and e-bikes, as well as fat bikes or even heavy cargo bikes. With a weight capacity of up to 80 lbs per bike and compatibility with up to 5” wide tires out of the box, Thule Vero offers unparalleled versatility.
Effortless loading and secure transport
The telescopic bike arm swings 180 degrees to allow independent loading and unloading from either side of the rack, making it easy to arrange bikes in any order. While the pivoting head and integrated locking strap provide a safe and secure grip on the bike frame or rear wheel, this unique design offers stability during transport and protection for your bike. For added convenience, the end cap on each bike tray accommodates an optional loading ramp, eliminating the strain of lifting heavy bikes. This thoughtful design ensures that even the heaviest e-bikes can be loaded with ease.
