The Thule RaceWay 3 Bike Trunk Mounted Bike Rack

The Thule 9002 RaceWay 3 Bike Trunk Mount Rack
    Thule's new 9002 RaceWay 3 Bike Trunk Mounted Bicycle Rack just arrived in our warehouse this morning, but we're going to need more of them. LOTS more. Because everyone with bikes but no trailer hitch is going to want one. Thule spent about 2 years perfecting the RaceWay's design, and it shows. A closeup of the RaceWay's Locking adjustment system.The RaceWay's integrated Fit Number system allows you to set the carrier's angle to match the back of your vehicle even faster than on previous models. Thule's new Sure-Tight cable system locks the RaceWay to your vehicle with a couple quick turns of a knob. This new ultra-stable system needs only 4 rubber coated hooks to hold the rack securely in place, and the locking adjustment knobs keep thieves from loosening the cut-resistant cables and walking away with your bike rack. Thule has also included an integrated cable lock to secure the outermost bike (which makes it nearly impossible to swipe your other bikes, too). You can check out the full RaceWay installation instructions on Thule's website.
    Aside from being faster and more secure, the Thule RaceWay delivers all the standard features you've come to expect from Thule's trunk mounted racks. Thule's Anti-Sway Cages help eliminate bike to bike contact, and an additional included cam-buckle strap can be used to secure your bikes to the lower frame of the carrier.

Of course, Thule has redesigned the bike arms, so folding them down is as simple as pulling on the central adjustment lever and pivoting the arms. The bike arms' spacing has been narrowed to just under 12 inches (versus 17inches on previous models), which allows the RaceWay to accommodate a wide variety of bike frames-including many children's bikes (just be sure your kid's bike's pedals don't scrape the frame on your full-size bikes if you carry them both at the same time). Don't have three bikes? Check out the Thule 9001 RaceWay 2 Bike Rack. It holds - you guessed it - two bikes.
