Thule Helium Platform XT 1-Bike Hitch Platform Rack – Lightweight Aluminum No-Frame Contact

The ultimate lightweight solution for solo riders who demand premium protection for their equipment.

The Thule Helium Platform XT 1-Bike Hitch Rack combines high-grade aluminum construction with an innovative design that secures your bike entirely by the wheels. This means zero contact with your frame, protecting your carbon fiber or custom paint job from scratches and wear during transport.

Premium Visual & Functional Design

Crafted with a sleek, brushed aluminum finish, this rack is significantly lighter than traditional steel alternatives, making installation and removal effortless for a single person. The dual ratcheting arms lock into place quickly for a secure fit, while the integrated HitchSwitch lever allows you to tilt the rack down for convenient access to the rear of your vehicle, even with the bike loaded.

• Zero Frame Contact: Ratcheting wheel loops securely hold the bike in place without touching the frame.
• Ultra-Lightweight: Premium aluminum construction makes the rack easy to handle, weighing only 23 lbs.
• HitchSwitch Tilt: Effortlessly tilt the rack down for trunk access or fold it up when not in use.
• Integrated Security: Includes a cable lock to secure the bike to the rack and a SnugTite stinger to lock the rack to the vehicle.
• Versatile Fit: Accommodates 26″-29″ wheel sizes and tires up to 3″ wide.
