Description

With Thule's Bed Rider Truck Bike Rack ready to take transporting 2-wheelers to another level, there's no reason to toss your bikes in a damage-prone pile in the back of your pickup.

Thanks to yet another ingenious Thule design, the Bed Rider Bike Rack hauls your cycles upright and out of the tangled mess that bends and breaks spokes. Just pop off the front tire, drop the forks into one of the two Thule Low-Rider blocks and lock it down. It's that easy.

Speaking of easy, the Thule Bed Rider Bike Rack practically defines quick installation. Adjust the telescoping bar to size, clamp down the fork blocks and slide in the secure locking cylinder. It's equally easy to remove for full use of your payload for hauling bigger stuff.

Thule builds the Bed Rider from tough aluminum that survives any situation. In fact, Thule stands behind your Bed Rider Truck Bike Rack with a Lifetime Warranty.

I put this in my F-350. I'm not exactly a "handy" person but it was easy to put in and take out. It will do everything you'd extpect.

I'm loving the rack. It has style plus quality and when mounted near the cab, doesn't rob cargo area. Looks 100% better than homemade options.

The system was so easy to install that I used in within minutes after I received it. I recently purchased news bikes for my wife and I and was concerned about the straching potential from other racks. Both bikes fit a good enough distance apart that I can load both bikes into the bed of the truck stand in between the bikes to secure them on the rack. And I'm doing this in the bed of a Toyota Tacoma. I even have enough room to place the child trailer, in the folder configuration, in the bed of the truck. The bikes don't budge once properly installed in the rack. The other factor was security. Once in the rack, I chain the bike together and place the front wheels inside the vehicle as a deterrant. (They would have to break into the truck with alarm to get the tirees.) The locking bar is more secure than I first thought, an added plus to this system. Overall, I highly recommend this system for tranport and security of the bikes.

Excellent choice for hauling bikes in a pick-up. Simple to install, easy and secure way to transport; only wish there was a way to secure the front wheels as well (besides a logging chain and padlock).

The day after I received the bike rack, I used it to transport a bicycle from SW Virginia to Washington D.C. The rack worked perfectly. It fit my Toyota Tacoma just right and held the bicycle in perfect condition for the entire trip. I am looking forward to being able to next transporting two bicycles to a nearby trail where I can enjoy the cycling. This is a great product and I recommend it highly to anyone who needs a rack for a pickup truck that does not involve drilling holes into the bed of the truck.

I love the Thule Bedrider. It was easy to install and makes me feel much more secure about carrying by expensive bike in the back of my truck and leaving it unattended. It seems immovable once locked into the bed. It's easy to use and I combine it with a Thule locking cable for extra security.

I shopped around and found auto anything to be the lowest price, even after on sale prices locally. It was important to find a product made for the bed of my pick up, since it was such a short bed. It installed quickly and worked out just perfectly. Highly recommend to anyone with limited space. Diane
