The most versatile bike rack for all types of bikes
Thule Epos bike rack fits all types of bikes and is fast, easy and convenient to use – it takes minimal effort to mount bikes thanks to an innovative telescopic bike attachment system. The bike arms simply let you attach your bike anywhere on the frame or the rear wheel, providing you with numerous attachment options. You can load and unload up to three bikes in any order – all types of frames and geometries are supported, including ebikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, and bikes with fenders and racks.
It's all about the details
Thule Epos is designed to maximise your time on the bike with smart solutions that make handling your bikes easy. It is fully foldable for easy transportation and storage, and tiltable for trunk access. The bike carrier is made to take good care of your bikes – generous spacing between bikes, accomodation for extra long wheelbases and easy fastening of large tires will give you a great time cycling.
Add to the experience
We have designed great accessories for bikers that loves their bikes. Adjust or repair your bike on the go with Thule Epos Bike Repair Holder, and protect your bikes against theft with Thule High Grade Lock, developed with industry leader ABUS. And yes – we get it, ebikes weigh a lot. That’s why we offer Thule Epos Foldable Loading Ramp for easy loading and unloading of heavier bikes.
