UNCOVERED: Thule epos bike rack review towbar mounted e mtb rated carrier | History Defined

A Thule Epos bike carrier fitted to the back of a Volkswagen T5 van.

Thule has a wide range of bike carriers for all kinds of vehicles. I've been testing the Thule Epos – a towbar/hitch carrier that's substantial enough to handle bikes up to 30kg, so has plenty of capacity for even the heftiest electric mountain bikes.

The three-bike version here comes with inbuilt rear lights, but there is also a two-bike model – both are available without lights for a lower RRP. My test Epos carrier comes with a pretty hefty $1,099.99 / £1,099.99 / €1,099.99 price tag, so is it worth the investment, and is it the best bike hitch rack you can buy?
