Thule  ReVert 4-Bike Hitch Rack

Positives: - Easy to load & unload - Sturdy. This thing is a tank - Virtually impossible for bikes to fall off - Zero contact with bike frames - More ground clearance than 4-bike tray racks - Compatible with kids bike wheels (Shown with accessory) Negatives: - Tilting downward when unloaded requires a surprising amount of force - Does not offer much security for the bikes or the rack itself - Difficult to store in the garage My wife and I wanted a 4-bike rack that does not require wheels to be removed, and would not sacrifice ground clearance (steep driveway entry). We were torn between the Thule Revert and Velocirax 412. Thule's never let us down before so we went with the Revert despite being a brand new product. No regrets, we love it.

This is a super easy bike rack. There are only a couple reasons that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I have 3 tall kids and a tall husband so I can't lift the bikes by myself (too short) on to the rack, even when it is pulled down. I also think for the price it should have come with a lock strap. It is pretty hard to pull down but that is only because it is brand new and pretty tight but once that loosens up the ease is great! I also like how it is two straps and done! I don't feel like I also need to bungie as well.

I bought this rack on after having used one several times over the past year. It is an excellent product and is full value for the purpose. The bikes load simply once you master the lowering of the basket - the shock is tight and if you are not strong this rack may be frustrating as you fight the shock to lock it into load mode! Technique is the trick and I suggest trying it a few times before you purchase. Once loaded that shock allows for controlled lowering and again is such a great feature. This is my second Thule rack with the adjustable cam in the hitch - this mechanism has a retractable one handle that tightens the cam lock and that is an upgrade from the knob mechanism. All said for carrying mountain bikes to road bikes it is easy to use.

We’ve used this twice now for our MTBs. Works really well. Like the lift assist. Wish the integrated lock was keyed the same as the hitch lock.

Great secure rack I have no concern that bikes will move around or fall off. The other reviews saying it's very stiff to lower are well warranted. I am 5'10 165lbs active women and feel like I have to put all my weight and effort into lowering it. Also the leaver to lower and raise it is quite stiff I have to often use both hands and then awkwardly shift one hand up to the wheel carrier start pulling and then shift my second hand. It can also be quite tall depending on where your hitch is located ground clearance of your vehicle

I used to have a NorthShore 4 bike rack but had a couple complaints so ended up going back to a tray style rack. When this one was released, I had my eye on it and am glad I finally pulled the trigger! The only contact to the bike is on the wheels (rubber straps for the rims) and the bikes don't shift around at all! The spacing between the trays is excellent and loading/unloading is extremely easy. The cartridge lift support is interesting and I could take it or leave it but with 4 bikes it does help if you're shorter/smaller!

This a great bike rack! I bought this to replace a fork style and I am so glad I did. All of our bikes now fit very comfortably without them rubbing against each other. The rack is very secure while traveling with no sway at all. It easily tilts back and out of the way to gain access to the back of our SUV. Love it!

I have had a lot of racks. Anything from a flat tray, tailgate pads, and even the VelociRAX. This is an absolutely amazing rack. Quality is top of the line. Best things about this rack is how easy it is to put it on your hitch, the ratchet to tighten the hitch is great, loading and unloading with the hydraulics is incredible, and it is so solid and stable. This rack is an absolute game changer, I love everything about it. Heads over the other hang racks in the industry and price point is very competitve.

The rack itself is great, I wouldn’t recommend it for eMTB’s. I ended up returning it because when I put my electric mountain bikes on it I didn’t like the strain it put on the front forks and the neck of the frame. If I had lighter bikes I think it would be perfect.

Exactly what we needed. Very stable with no rattle. Extends beyond spare tire of Jeep Wrangler Rubicon perfectly (we had to use extender with our old rack). Lowering it takes some muscle/weight, but our 10 year old can manage it.
