Why this product
Why the Thule Passage 3?
Three bikes on a Thule trunk rack at a budget price β at 10.8 lbs, it is easy to install and remove. The 30 lb per-bike limit is the lowest in the lineup, so only lightweight bikes. Not carbon-safe, no locks, no anti-sway. The trade-offs are significant but so is the price savings. I recommend this to families testing whether three-bike trips are worth investing in a better rack later. Start here, upgrade when you know what you need.
