I have Thule T2 Bike carrier that hold 4 bikes. I do not kmow it's total weight but it's heavy. Will this support a beefy bike rack like that?

I doubt it will hold up much weight at all. Because of the receivers design it does not take very much weight to pull the receiver down. I have experience this and do not recommend using this for more than one bike.

I think it will. It is solid. I hauled a big luggage carrier with a family of 5 luggage.

I used a cargo basket attachment and the weight did bend the hitch I would not recommend adding that much weight with this adapter. Hope this helps!

Rack is built solid. I would say that it would hold any bike that you are able to lift on to it.

Go to Thule's fit chart. That will tell you. More than likely it will. This is a fantastic and very versatile rack. I love mine.

this is just the standard 2" receiver that the rack will slide into. It is strong and well made. It will hold a lot of weight. I have a 4 bike carrier that I use and it works great. I only have loaded 2 bikes but wouldn't think twice about 4.

Hi Daniel, the rack itself is heavy but it is what makes it strong. After installation and proper locking the hitch rack is very sturdy and feels solid. It is with out a question in my mind the best rack available on the market for 5 bikes. I had before Yakima but hands down much better purchase. Good luck .Your Polish Buddy Krzysztof LadudzkiAny questions, just shoot - wlabuda@hotmail.com

I'm not sure what you're asking. This is a rack for 2 bicycles. Please rephrase your question & I'll see if I can answer it. Thanks. Steve

Good question. I can only give you first hand experience; don't do it! I had two bikes on this rack behind my trailer. I lost one bike and the basket of the other. Apparently, there is a lot more movement behind a towed vehicle for this design.

We only hauled 2 bikes. Yes I think it would hold 4 but they would have to be properly placed.

The adapter is quite universal. The adapter bar clamps around the seat post at one end and the handle bar post at the other end. As long as your carrier has two arms that the adapter bar can rest on you should be OK. My Thule carrier has two arms that the adapter bar rests on to support the bicycle + has rubber clamps that wrap around the adapter bar..

I feel it would handle it just fine. I am not sure if you could put 2 on the double carrier. The manufacturer has specs on the unit for width and length. I carry to small bikes that probably weigh 350 lb combined.

Yes it will, This is very light weight and once fitted, it is very sturdy. But please note that this rack is longer than regular racks, even on my bike with 700C tires, this looks longer.

Used a temporary bar on my wife's bike. Worked great. This rack is a solid heavy duty piece of equipment. Doesn't matter if the bikes are at different angles, it will hold them.

Not sure, but it is a solid rack. If i had to guess, i would say it will support at least 50 pounds per bike, probably more.

Hi Raymond, I guess it will, it is a very versatile device, try to check if the lateral straps would get a place for stabilization. That is VERY important for the rack not to move laterally due to the weight of the bikes.

No. I would say yes IF this rack were still made of 11 gauge steel, instead of thinner 12 gauge (from the Bodycraft website: 2" x 3" , 12 Gauge Steel Tubing). Based on their website specs, they've 'cheapened' this rack with thinner-walled steel and Amazon has yet to update their specs. For weight that heavy, go with 11 gauge steel, such as the Titan HD rack (which also comes with the 4 plate holders) or the GPR378 rack.

I doubt that it will hold a trike. It is designed for bicycles. Also, the max weight that this and most racks like this will hold is 70lbs total.

I have this adapter for my Mazda CX9 and have a very heavy 4 bike carrier. Works great- but I would respect the 200lb limit.
