The Details
Easily attached to your tow bar via Thule's one hand coupling, the hardest part of owning the new VeloCompact 3 is deciding where you want to go. Both lightweight and compact, the car rack securely holds up to 3 bikes and features detachable bike arms that can be extended to accommodate bikes with larger wheelbases. Unlike with traditional fixed rear car carriers, you can still access your boot when the VeloCompact's attached thanks to the smart foot pedal that tilts the whole rack, even when loaded with bikes.
If you need to stop mid-route you can lock your bikes to the bike rack, and your rack to your tow bar. To accommodate 4 bikes you will need to purchase the Thule VeloCompact 4th Bike Adapter, which is available separately. If you own a vehicle with a spare wheel, this rack is perfect for you as it can easily be adapted by using the Thule VeloCompact Spare Wheel Adapter.
As well as the 4th Bike Adapter, we also recommend the Thule Loading Ramp as an incredibly useful accessory for your VeloCompact.
Our Verdict
Compact yet lightweight, Thule's brand new VeloCompact 3 7-Pin bike carrier is the easiest and most convenient way to load 3 bikes (4 with an additional adaptor) on your tow bar.
