Thule Vero 2 Bike 2" Hitch Bike Rack

Thule Vero Platform Hitch Bike Rack – Heavy-Duty, All-Bike Versatility

The Thule Vero is a durable, versatile platform-style hitch bike rack designed to carry virtually any bike—including mountain, road, kids, fat tire, cargo bikes, and heavy e-bikes. With an impressive 80 lb per-bike capacity, it’s built for riders who demand strength, flexibility, and ease of use in one refined package.

Combining the rugged durability of the Thule Verse with the innovative telescopic bike arm technology from Thule Epos, the Vero blends proven strength with next-generation bike handling. From step-through frames to long wheelbases and wide tires, this rack is designed to adapt—no frame adapters required.

Built for Heavy E-Bikes, Versatile for Everything Else

Each tray on the Thule Vero supports up to 80 lbs (36 kg), making it ideal for today’s heavier e-bikes and cargo bikes. Out of the box, it supports tires up to 5” wide and wheelbases up to 53” (or 55” with optional extra-long wheel straps).

The rack is fully compatible with step-through frames, bikes with fenders, and a wide range of wheel sizes from 20” to 29”—all without needing additional adapters.

Effortless Loading with Telescopic Bike Arms

The standout feature of the Thule Vero is its 180-degree pivoting telescopic bike arms, which allow each bike to be loaded and unloaded independently from either side of the rack. This makes arranging bikes in any order easy—even when carrying two large or heavy e-bikes.

The pivoting head and integrated locking strap securely grip the bike frame or rear wheel, delivering excellent stability during transport while protecting sensitive frame finishes.

Designed for Heavy Bikes & Everyday Convenience

For added ease, the tray end caps accept an optional loading ramp, allowing you to roll heavy bikes into place instead of lifting them. Built-in transport wheels make moving the rack on and off your vehicle simple.

The rack also tilts down with bikes loaded to allow access to your vehicle’s trunk and folds up compactly against the vehicle when not in use—minimizing its footprint for parking and storage.

Durable Construction, Clean Modern Design

Engineered with reinforced aluminum wheel trays and a minimalist design, the Thule Vero delivers long-term durability without unnecessary bulk. Reduced plastic use improves sustainability while maintaining the clean, modern look Thule is known for.
