It’s not often that the features of a platform hitch rack are offered at such a great price, but Thule has done it with the Doubletrack Hitch Bike Rack. The Doubletrack’s low platform makes raising your bikes into position virtually effortless, and securing them couldn’t be easier. Just rest each wheel inside the reinforced trays and raise the foldable center mast into position. Push the ratcheting hook down to firmly grab the frame, secure the wheels to the trays with the ratcheting wheel straps and you’re ready to roll.

The reinforced wheel trays slide easily along the platform to allow for optimum bike positioning and eliminate bike-to-bike contact. The trays can slide enough to accommodate wheelbases up to 48″ and the trays are wide enough to carry tires up to 3″ in width. With the Doubletrack you’ll be able to carry everything from kid’s bikes to road bikes to mountain bikes. Each of the ratcheting hooks on the foldable center mast can be positioned independently, so you can carry different size and design bikes at the same time. Besides the hooks that grab, hold and stabilize your bikes, the ratcheting wheel straps safely secure the bike’s wheels to the trays. Two One-Key lock cylinders are included for the ratcheting hooks to secure your bikes to the rack. The Snug-Tite™ receiver lock not only locks the rack to the vehicle, it virtually eliminates hitch rack movement in the receiver.

The Doubletrack can carry up to 2 bikes and it fits 1-1/4″ and 2″ receivers. When not in use, a flip of the Hitch Switch lever allows the platform to be folded upward, increasing space for parking and garaging. The Doubletrack Hitch Bike Rack comes with everything necessary for installation, including detailed instructions. The limited lifetime warranty applies to the original purchaser of the product, and warrants the product against manufacturer’s defects in materials or workmanship.
