Why We Like The Helium Pro Bike Rack
Incredibly lightweight and unbelievably easy to use, the Thule Helium Pro Bike Rack has a strong, yet featherweight aluminum construction and quick-release Hitch Switch to make sure installation and loading and unloading bikes aren't a fifteen-minute-long cursing session.
Easy, breezy, no-tool installation saves you tons of frustration, and once it's on, fiddling between rides is kept to a minimum thanks to the aforementioned Hitch Switch system, which folds down and tilts away from your car for easy rear access. The industry-leading seven-inch spacing between bikes ensure protection on the road, while confident stability and fit comes with the integrated anti-sway design that prevent bike-to-bike contact and even folds away when not needed. Narrow cradle arms accommodate a wide range of bikes from your child's beginner bike to your off-road rig, which are safe during pit stops thanks to the integrated, retractable cable that easily locks the bikes down to prevent theft.

- I've put it through the wringer
I bought this due to good reviews, the fact that is is very lightweight and becasue I have always had good experiences with Thule products. It was also recommended by a gear head. I hated it! It sways back and forth in the hitch and doesn't seem to tighten well in the hitch. The straps that hold the bikes on were difficult to undo. The plastic caps on the side came off. And the bikes were too close together! It was very difficult to have both bikes on the rack. I returned it.
