Thule Epos
from €6.30 per day
Tow-hitch carrier for up to 3 bikes or e-bikes up to 30 kg per bike. More comfortable to handle than Velo Compact or EasyFold XT 3 — slightly heavier though.
5 / 79 reviewsDescription
The Epos is the most comfortable hitch carrier in our rental fleet. Modern controls, quick adjustment to different frame types, easy loading even of heavy e-bikes.
Good fit if: you often mix bike types (e-bikes, classic bikes, kids' bikes on the same trip), or you prefer extra convenience at the cost of a slightly heavier carrier.
Suitable for
1–3 bikes or e-bikes up to 30 kg each. Flexible for mixed bike types, different frame sizes — the arm adjusts.
Not suitable for
4 bikes (use Velo Compact with extension), e-bikes over 30 kg, cars without a tow bar.
Frequently asked questions
Are my bikes protected against theft?
Both the bike carrier and the bicycles are secured with locks to prevent unauthorized access. We still recommend securing the bikes on the carrier with an additional lock. At the destination or when not in use, you should remove the bicycles from the carrier and store them in a secure location.
Can I still open the trunk?
Yes, all of our towbar bike carriers are tiltable, ensuring that you have easy access to the trunk even when bikes are mounted. For vehicles with particularly large tailgates, such as vans or minibuses, we recommend the Uebler I21 Z90. This carrier can tilt up to 90°, providing unrestricted access to the trunk.
Can I transport my carbon bike?
Yes, it is possible to transport a carbon bike on a bike rack, but special care must be taken to avoid damaging the delicate frame.
Which carriers are suitable for carbon bikes?
✔ Übler I21 Z90 and Thule Epos are already suitable for carbon frames as standard and enable safe transportation.
✔ For all other carriers, we recommend using the Thule Carbon Frame Protector, which reduces the pressure on the frame and offers additional protection and which you can add as an accessory when ordering.
How does the Thule Carbon Frame Protector work?
- Protects the sensitive carbon frame through special pressure distribution.
- Prevents crushing and damage to the surface.
- Simple mounting on the frame.
