Thule Introduces the All-New Verse Platform Hitch Bike Carrier

(THULE PRESS RELEASE)

The best just got even better. Thule Verse sets the new standard for safety, durability, and ease of use for hitch-mounted platform bike carriers. Developed from the award-winning Thule T2 line, the original platform hitch rack that pioneered the no-frame contact design nearly two decades ago, this revolutionary bike carrier has been redesigned from the ground up. With a sleek aesthetic and premium styling, Thule Verse has a greater range of bike fits, easier-to-use features, and even more capacity than its predecessor. Thule Verse will be available on March 4, 2025, in the United States and Canada.

Award-Winning Rack Design
Thule Verse comes to market with a patented outboard release handle, providing easy hand-activated tilting for rear cargo access with or without bikes mounted on the rack. The release handle also allows the rack to quickly tilt up and stow vertically when not in use, reducing the amount of space it occupies behind the vehicle.

As expected with any Thule bike carrier, Thule Verse provides superior bike protection and security. The independent single attachment arm secures your bike by safely clamping down on the front wheel, eliminating frame contact and securing the bike to the rack quickly. With 11.4 inches of spacing between bike positions, independent on-the-fly tray adjustments for the wheels, and a new soft-touch attachment arm with increased fork clearance, bikes are loaded easily with peace of mind that they’ll be safe on your journey.

Thule Verse offers improved carrying capacity and versatility by accommodating wheelbases ranging from 34 to 53 inches and larger tire sizes up to 5 inches. Each bike tray can carry bikes up to 60 lbs and accepts the Thule foldable loading ramp to assist with heavier e-bikes. With the included 12mm theft-deterrent locking cable, security is provided when you’re away from your vehicle.
