FeaturesTrunk mount carriers do not require a roof rack, are easy to install
and offer easy access to bikes. This makes them common, especially with new
cyclists and families, but they can also be one of the least stable and
awkward options on the road, sometimes leading to bike-on-bike and bike-to-
vehicle contact and presenting problems with parking. The Thule Passage Bike
Trunk Mount Carrier does away with these issues with its no-sway, no hassle
usability. It quickly secures to trunk and/or hatchback seams with multiple
straps just like other carriers in its class, but also contains unique setup
features. The first of these is a wing adjustment knob and FitDial combo with
recommended numerical positions for specific vehicles. This limits the trial
and error in how the carrier should lay against your vehicle. Once this
optimal fit position is confirmed it is locked into place with easy to turn
wing adjustment knobs. Then there is the one-button connection feature for
carrier arms, allowing for instantaneous installation, removal and maneuvering
of the arms to the side then down and out of the way for parking situations
with the carrier on, but empty of bikes. It also features narrow cradle arms,
capable of holding a wider range of bike frames including smaller child
frames. Most impressive though is the no-sway cage feature. Attaching and
extending below each of the rubberized cradles that support your bike frame
and attach to the carrier arms, no-sway attachments dramatically reduce bike
frame movement front-to-back and side-to-side.Key FeaturesCarries up to 2

family, when Eric Thulin, a true lover of the outdoors, put the Thule name on
a pike trap he designed and began to sell in Scandinavia. It wasn’t long
before he added other practical items to the company’s portfolio. By the
1960s, the company began to concentrate on car-related products, including its
first roof rack. The Thulin family sold Thule to the publicly listed company
Eldon in 1979, and it has continued to grow both organically and through
acquisitions ever since. The Thule Group is a world leader in providing
transport solutions for an active life.
