Thule Gateway Pro Trunk Bike Rack

Great bike rack, the only thing I would say that could have been better about it, is the straps, they don’t stay put.

Have to work to find the instructions somewhere online. THULE sticker fell off? The joint for the arm is rather difficult to adjust on one side, so the quality isn't very great but still trust it holding my bike when it's clamped down. The pulley / straps don't give me 100% confidence as they seem like they're off of a backpack. I wish they had a ratchet of some sorts. Everything holds, I just question how long of a trip I'd use this for holding my bikes. Overall it's "good", not awesome.

Fit my 2025 Equinox, fits 2 bikes and we drove over 500 miles with no issues.

(Thule censored the below review and refused to allow its publication on their website)Last Thule product I ever purchase I never even got the bikes on. Unfortunately, I bought it from their Amazon store where they do not mention the "Fit my car" feature, and of course I only find out it does not fit after the return window has closed. Then, the instructions are utter garbage. It's just pictures, no text, that they claim is for "ease of understanding". 1. You have technically unlimited room to add translations for ever language, you are just trying to save on paper. 2. Adding text in one language is better than none. 3. You can at least have the text online, which you don't. 4. You are not IKEA, I am not building a side table. 100s, if not 1000s of dollars of equipment are being placed on this rack. If this falls off on a highway, it could kill someone. The pictures are simply not enough. *Listen to your customers* Not a fan of the buckle that cinches the belt which connects side-bottom. The metal hooks also have no padding, so expect some scratches on your car. Lastly, we have a difficult time with getting 2 bikes on there: the handlebars of one bike conflicted with the wheel of the other. Can't imagine trying to fit 3 on there. Two other friends asked about the bike rack after I purchased it, I will be telling them to stay clear of Thule.--- REPLY FROM THULE WHEN REVIEW WAS SUBMITTED TO THEIR WEBSITE ---Our staff has read your review and values your contribution even though it did not meet all our website guidelines.

Good quality bike rack. Easy to install and fits the back hatch of my Subaru Crosstrek. Thule phone support was exceptional as I had one question about the rack dial setting. I do wish the metal hooks were rubber coated. I ordered padded hook covers (from another vendor) and no worries now about paint scratching.

Very high quality product, as usual from Thule, but it doesn't work on the Volvo XC60. The side straps are required to keep it from rocking, and the Volvo tailgate does not have an edge that will hold the strap hooks. All the metal edges are at angles, or place the strap hook against expensive plastic tail light lens or the glass window. I also had big concern with the top straps as they will probably rub on the spoiler and ruin the paint. I'm going to have to install a hitch if I want a rack for my wife's bike on the Volvo.

The rack itself is quality material and easy enough to install. A word of caution because it did not even dawn on me that a step through bike (girls bike) would need some kind of adapter in order for the bike to be mounted on the rack. Research the frame adapters to see if one works on your bike before ordering and being heart broken like me.

Ok so i have a 2020 highlander and I dont know why I didn't think of making sure it had a hitch when I bought it, but i purchased it without a hitch. Bad choice on my end..... I literally purchased and returned 6 trunk bike racks cause non fit right. Either they were so hard to secure the bike, or the weight of my bike (about 30+ lbs) made my top spoiler ( I guess that's what's it's called) move that I was terrified it was going to fall off..... I tried this Thule one only because of the picture of an suv on the front with a top spoiler. I had nothing to lose and im happy I gave it a try. It fits securely but my only issue is they need to provid extra straps to secure. They only provided 5 and my rack is a 2 bike rack that is not enough of straps. ive emailed the company and they said the straps are out of stock but I found them on Amazon and you would think they would offer to provide more but they didnt... I do love that there are 2 slots that the strap goes through and around a piece of your bike. Maybe they think since there's 2 slots for the straps times 2 bikes still leaves me with 1 extra??? But its not that simple. If you only use the 2 straps per bike, the bottom of your bike will rock back and forth which is why more straps are needed. I've used it 4 times so far and my heavy bike was secure for several hours...also I combined 2 of the straps together to make it long enough to secure one week and a paddle thus why it would be great to have a few extra straps.. . You can't have a 2 bike rack with only 5 straps.

Se ve un rack de buena calidad y súper fácil de instalar, sin embargo no tiene un candado para asegurarse al carro, los cinchos tienen que ser ensamblados hasta el fondo y se escuche el click, por qué si no es muy difícil abrirlos. Si usaras bicicleta de montaña y la barra no es recta tendrás que comprar el frame support .

Thule makes great carriers. We have both a kayak carrier and this bike carrier. The bike carrier is very sturdy, easy to use and doesn’t move or bounce around during transport. You can put your bikes on with no anxiety about them falling off! The attachment straps take a little trial and error to work correctly but you’ll figure it out! Spend the extra money and invest in a well made Thule product. You won’t regret it!By the way, do your research on the Thule website before you order. Thule will show you what model carriers will fit on your vehicle. If it doesn’t fit it’s not the manufactures fault!

Ich kann es nur bedingt empfehlen. Obwohl es seinen Hauptzweck erfüllt, sind das Be- und Entladen des Fahrrads sowie die Installation des Gurtes sehr umständlich. Die Haltearme lassen sich nur schwer öffnen, und es scheint, dass bei übermäßigem Kraftaufwand einige Teile brechen könnten.

Once the initial setup is done it's a piece of cake.

Der Träger kam zwar im Originalkarton an, es fehlte jegliche Umverpackung, was an sich zu begrüßen wäre. Der Träger weisst aber Kratzspuren, eine Schraube lag loose im Karton, und zwei Klappen für die Radbefestigung fehlen. Wir sind enttäuscht. Das geht zurück.
