Thule Helium Aero 3 Bike Hitch Rack
- Sleek aero design improves ground clearance and increases distance between bikes for protection
- Tilt-down design with Hitch Switch™ quick-release lever allows arms to fold down when not in use and tilts carrier away from vehicle for fast rear vehicle access
- Hold Fast Cradles™ are shaped to cushion bike frames and feature Thermal Plastic Elastomer road damping pads that absorb road forces and vibration to protect bikes
- Anti-Sway Cages with integrated soft-touch TPE strips protect bike frame finishes and prevent bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact; reinforced rubber cradle straps
- Thule Helium Aero accommodates both 2 in. and 1.25 in. receiver hitches with included hitch adapter
- Integrated locking cable and AutoAttach lock knob lock the bike to carrier and carrier to vehicle; bike cable stores in rack's support arms
- Easy mounting of hitch rack requires no tools; push rack into receiver until auto-pin engages, tighten knob and lock the hood of the housing
- Not intended for tandem or recumbent bikes; carrying bikes with step-through frames requires the purchase of an adapter (sold separately)
