Thule HangOn 3 Tilt Towbar Bike Rack
Description

3 Bikes, Tow Ball mounted

This rack hangs three bikes by the frame from the tow ball, held with soft rubber straps. Each bike can weigh up to 15kg; the full 45kg total needs a tow ball rated for more than 60kg vertical load, and it needs a steel tow ball, not aluminium or GGG40. It tilts for boot access with no bikes loaded and folds flat for storage. Locks, lights and a number plate holder are not included: Thule sells a towbar lock (957), a cable lock, Light Board 976 (with adapter 9761) and Number Plate 9762 separately.
