Overview
A fully folding frame with widely spaced wheel holders lets the Thule EasyFold XT carry bikes, e-bikes included, from a vehicle hitch. It attaches with a Power Grip mount, then collapses into a compact shape for the garage or trunk.
Folding is the core of this rack: it collapses for storage between trips and opens for bikes with long wheelbases. E-bike compatibility widens the range of bikes it accepts. Its limits are its own heft, which makes lifting it onto the hitch a chore, and a listing that skips the receiver size.
Who it's for
Weekend riders who haul e-bikes or long-wheelbase bikes behind a car, then stow the rack in a closet, are the match. Drivers without a hitch, or families moving a larger fleet of bikes, need a different carrier.
Pros and cons
- Folds fully for compact storage
- Accepts e-bikes and long wheelbases
- Power Grip hitch attachment
- Universal fit for cars
- Hitch receiver size not listed
- Heavy to lift onto the hitch
- Title and specs disagree on material
- No bike locks mentioned
Performance notes
Bike security on the road depends on the Power Grip attachment holding the rack tight in the receiver and on the wheel holders gripping each tire. Wide spacing between the holders lets long frames fit without crowding. The rack's own weight adds to what the hitch carries.

Is the Thule EasyFold XT 2 a trunk or roof rack?
