Thule OutWay Hanging 2-bike Hanging Trunk Bike Rack Review

Thule bike rack is indeed well known for firm and sturdiness and at the same time expensive. But I would say it worth every penny. You do not have to worry about your expensive bike hanging outside drop when you drive at high speed ~120km/h…

Thanks for video. One question, is it possible to open back door when Thule installed (without bikes) ?

@SamHoChannel Жыл бұрын

Yes.. I tried before.. can open.. just be careful when close.. back door heavy after putting on the rack

great video, With the pads seating on the edge of the glass, will the glass support the pressure without breaking?

So far so good bro.. tested with 2 road bike and travel at 100km/h… 😂

Excellent video Sam! I'm thinking of buying it but I would load two MTB, one of them almost 15 kg (max per bike as read in the specs)... Do you think the rack is sturdy enough? Is there room enough for two MTBs? Thanks!

Hi, it’s very sturdy.. it won’t shake abit when 2 roadbike on it.. around 16kg.. not sure about mtb.. but should be able to fit

Thanks for the video! I have a bmw as well and I’m pretty worried about the spoiler since is fully made of plastic, aren’t the top hangings making force on it? Specially in case of highway bumps with couple of ( heavier ) bikes at 120km/h I’m afraid it could tear it off :/

@SamHoChannel Жыл бұрын

I have the same concern at first.. you just need to make sure the reinforcing straps is used. It will prevent your spoiler tear off..

@mauri1310 Жыл бұрын

@@SamHoChannelthe reinforcement straps are docked to the internal car/door frame but still running around the plastic spoiler. I verified carefully mine and all the edges are plastic then the all spoiler is ( I assume ) glued to the rear door frame. Means there is still weight on the plastic spoiler, but probably ( I am not a physician ) the involved forces are somehow better distributed so to not damage it. I am testing other ( much more cheaper ) bike hangings and noticing the spoiler slightly flexes when loading bikes, maybe i can try dock the upper hangings internally. Thanks for the clarification!

Hello,, one question, are the bottom and top hooks coated with some kind of rubber? Thanks

@SamHoChannel 9 ай бұрын

Yes.. with semi hard rubber

Die Frage ist, wie wird dann ein Damenrad eingehängt, weil keine Querstange? Und kann man da vom Gewicht her auch ein EBike einhängen?

I got a bum used one even tho I paid for new on Amazon one the tensioners didn’t click the right side tensioner got stuck. Not a good fit on the Jetta trunk. I will be returning it.

Hi!, I have a question, how about your lights, they are almost fuly blocked? i just bought the Thule outway platform for that reason. just to find out that a Ford Fiesta's taillights are pretty high up so it still gets blocked. Thule say's it's compatibe tho. Don't you get tickets for blocked lights?

@SamHoChannel Жыл бұрын

Not fully block. Still can see.. I have not get any ticket yet so far. 😂

@TheIemant Жыл бұрын

One followup question, do you know if placing it higher on the glass is oke or not? Can't find it anywhere and Thule doesn't describe it as a no go, like placing it on the bodywork explicitly is forbidden.

@SamHoChannel Жыл бұрын

@@TheIemant not sure if the glass hard enough to hold it if you put higher… I put at the edge of the glass…

@lesjohnstone Жыл бұрын

I wish you had shown how to mount the reinforcing straps - what are they tied to?

@TheIemant Жыл бұрын

It's just a little strap that goes on the insides of both hinges. They have little plastic blocks on them witch dangle loose when you close the tailgate. You pull them tight so the little plastic blocks lock on the inside plastics or whatever is in your car. Then you connect it to the bike carrier and that's it. Be mindful to loose those straps from te bike carrier before you open the trunk.
