Thule's new premium 9025xt Apex XT 4 bike hanging trailer hitch mounted bike carrier sports a sleek, stylish design that incorporates convenience, safety and security. Thule's Apex XT fits both 2" and 1.25" hitches right out of the box. The convenient SnugTite Locking Stinger mounting system offers tool-free installation or removal - simply loosen or tighten the hitch knob. To install, just push the tongue assembly into your hitch receiver until the integrated auto-hitch-pin snaps into place, then tighten the knob to activate the anti-rattle wedge mechanism to help eliminate bounce and sway for a secure and stable fit. The 9025xt Apex XT has a compact cradle design which accommodates a wide variety of bike frame styles and sizes. (Unconventional frames or traditional ladies' bikes may require a frame adapter bar like Thule's 982xt Bike Frame Adapter). Thule's new ratcheting style cradle straps make loading and unloading your bikes quick and easy. The bike cradles are now spaced 7" apart for better separation between bikes - eliminating the need to play "musical chairs" with your bikes to get them all loaded without rubbing and scraping one another. Integrated Anti-Sway fasteners provide extra stability and further reduce bike-to-bike contact. The Apex XT includes a quick release switch at the top that enables you to fold the bike arms down when not in use, and another at the base which allows you to tilt the rack away from your vehicle so you can easily access your hatch, trunk, or tailgate. The Hitch Switch mechanism has an audible click to assure you that the arms and mast are securely locked in position. The Apex XT includes full locking security for your rack and bikes - a built-in cable lock pulls out of the mast and locks into the end of one bike arm, and the locking hitch knob prevents your Apex XT from being removed from your hitch. 2 and 5 bike versions are also available (but do note that the 9026xt 5 bike version is only compatible with 2" receivers.)
