The most versatile bike rack for all types of bikes
Thule Epos bike rack fits all types of bikes and is fast, easy and convenient to use – it takes minimal effort to mount bikes thanks to an innovative telescopic bike attachment system. The bike arms simply let you attach your bike anywhere on the frame or the rear wheel, providing you with numerous attachment options. You can load and unload up to two bikes in any order – all types of frames and geometries are supported, including ebikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, and bikes with fenders and racks.
It's all about the details
Thule Epos is designed to maximize your time on the bike with smart solutions that make handling your bikes easy. It is fully foldable for easy transportation and storage, and tiltable for trunk access. The bike carrier is made to take good care of your bikes – generous spacing between bikes, accomodation for extra long wheelbases and easy fastening of large tires will give you a great time cycling.
Add to the experience
We have designed great accessories for bikers that loves their bikes. Adjust or repair your bike on the go with Thule Epos Bike Repair Holder, and protect your bikes against theft with Thule High Grade Lock, developed with industry leader ABUS. And yes – we get it, ebikes weigh a lot. That’s why we offer Thule Epos Foldable Loading Ramp for easy loading and unloading of heavier bikes.

FOR USE ON A 50MM ISO COMPLIANT TOWBALL ONLY
Towball requirements for Thule VeloCompact 926, Velospace 918, Velospace XT 938 & 939, EasyFold XT 933 & 934
Thule towball mount carriers 926, 938, 939, 933 & 934, feature a precision towball coupling mechanism (the Hercules coupler) which is designed for use only with 50mm towballs meeting the ISO1103 standard (also known as the ISO50mm standard) The measurement from top of flange to top of towball must be at least 75mm.
Illustrations of towballs meeting the ISO1103 standard are as below:
Thule carriers fitted with the Hercules coupler are not compatible with 1 7/8” (47mm) towballs commonly fitted to vehicles in New Zealand nor is the coupler compatible with “convert-a-ball” type towballs where the user can change between 1 7/8” and 50mm balls without demounting the towball shank.
If the user has a conventional towbar with a flat tongue and wishes to install a 50mm towball to accommodate one of these Thule carriers, then we recommend purchasing one of our stocked towballs.
We stock these European towball options:
Thule Towball - 19mm, 22mm and 25mm
*Please note - there are 50mm towballs in use and available for sale that do not comply with the ISO standard and have characteristics which will result in the clamp mechanism not engaging correctly leading to either coupler damage, an insecure carrier or both.
