Not for an e-Mtn Bike as advertised!!!

I purchased this rack because the kiosk for Thule said e-Bikes use EasyFold XT 2. I purchase it and my Specialized Levo Turbo will not fit!!! The bottom of the Levo is frame is too big to have the clamp fit securely, and it will not fit on the inside rake because the short clamp is out of position to clamp to anything.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from thule-us-caBy Thule Customer Service, May 25, 2022
Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Thule EasyFold XT 2. I understand your frustration with your bike not fitting the rack.
The Thule EasyFold XT 2 is designed to fit most ebikes, but some styles with exceptionally large frames, or more unique geometries may struggle to find a fit. The adjustable clamp arms can be moved to many different mounting points along the upright to attach to different parts of the bike, so some experimentation may be needed to confirm if your bike is a good fit for the rack. Unfortunately, not every bike will be a fit for the carrier, and this may be one of these cases. The bike manufacturer may have some suggestions on other options for transportation.

Not that great

I bought this after seeing a review from an Ebike reviewer. It seemed to be good for fat tire bikes. I have a Lectric Ebike and have just used it for the first time today. Well let me tell you the legs holding the bike are not long enough to securely hold this bike. I felt like the wheels of thr bike were literally hanging off the rack. I was very worried abiut taling this on the road and roped it up very well. It felt like one good bump and the tires would be out of the grove. The groves are nit wide or deep eniught for fat tire bikes. I loved the ramp but again it was not wide enough. This rack was extremely expensive and I have had to buy another rack which will now cause me to lift thembike onto the rack. I am hoping I can sell this rack and recoup some of the cost, since I only used it once. Loved the rack but not suitable for fat tire Ebikes.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have read that the latch that holds the bikes in let’s go, while you are driving, and should secure your bike with other options. Has this ever happened to you.

I purchased this bike rack to use with my new Toyota Highlander and it works great. It's easy to install and the bikes stay put. Well-suited for a quick evening ride or a long trip. I have no worries, the bikes will be safe and secure.
I would recommend this to a friend!

If you need to carry two bikes be sure to check ahead to see if this rack will accomodate your needs.

The extender arms are not working.....they do not fully clamp on the frame. There is no click when the arm is closed.

Do not buy if you have fat tires!!!

I'm sorry I bought this bike rack. Do not buy if you have a bike with fat tires. Straps that come with bike rack are too short. I've been waiting 6 months for them to get the longer straps and they are never in. Spent the whole summer traveling with velcro straps I had to add on holding my breath my bikes do not come off the rack. Who needs the hassle!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not Large Enough to Carry Two a Large Ebikes
on March 3, 2020
Posted by: Rich
This rack was great. Small footprint for storage, easy to open and mount on vehicle. I just happen to have two large Ebikes and could've get them both on the rack. The rack would be perfect fore mountain bikes.
