Lightweight Design for Everyday Cycling

The Thule OutPace 2 Bike Rack is ideal for cyclists who want the convenience of a platform-style towbar carrier without unnecessary bulk.

At just 15kg, it offers a practical balance between low weight and secure bicycle transportation.

Its compact design is especially useful for couples, occasional cyclists and households with limited storage space.

Whether you're transporting road bikes for a weekend ride or taking mountain bikes to your favourite trails, the Thule OutPace makes everyday bike transport easier.

Innovative Tilt-Up Parking Function

One of the standout features of the Thule OutPace 2 is its clever tilt-up parking function.

When the bicycles have been removed, the carrier can tilt upwards towards your vehicle, reducing the amount of space required behind the car.

This is particularly useful in driveways, tight parking spaces and urban environments where rear clearance is limited.

The tilt-up feature makes the OutPace particularly attractive for drivers who prefer to keep their empty bike rack fitted between journeys.

Convenient Boot Access with Bikes Loaded

The Thule OutPace 2 also features a practical tilt-down mechanism.

This allows the carrier to tilt away from your vehicle to provide access to the boot, even with bicycles mounted.

Whether you're retrieving luggage during a long journey, accessing equipment at a trail centre or unpacking at a campsite, the tilting mechanism makes travelling with bikes more convenient.

Boot access will depend on your vehicle's tailgate design and the clearance available.

Flexible Bike Attachment for Different Frame Designs

The Thule OutPace features independently adjustable bike arms designed to accommodate a wide variety of bicycle frames.

Each articulated attachment head can rotate, slide and pivot, making it easier to position the arm around compatible frames measuring between 20mm and 90mm.

This makes the carrier well suited to many road bikes, gravel bikes, mountain bikes and hybrid bicycles.

Because each bike has its own adjustable attachment, the bicycles can be loaded and unloaded in either order.

Suitable for Mountain Bikes & Lightweight E-Bikes

With a maximum individual bicycle weight of 25kg, the Thule OutPace 2 is suitable for many conventional bicycles and compatible lightweight electric bikes.

The total load capacity is 50kg, allowing two bikes weighing up to 25kg each to be carried, provided the vehicle's towbar limits are also respected.

The carrier supports bicycles with wheelbases up to 1250mm and wheel sizes between 16 and 32 inches.

For heavier electric bikes exceeding 25kg, a higher-capacity Thule carrier such as the EasyFold 3 or VeloSpace 3 may be more appropriate.

Easy Wheel Mounting & Secure Transportation

Adjustable wheel holders and ratcheting pump buckles make securing your bicycle wheels straightforward.

The wheel straps accommodate tyres up to 3 inches wide, while dedicated strap parking slots keep the straps neatly organised during loading and unloading.

The carrier also features integrated rear lighting and a 13-pin electrical connection for compatible vehicles.

Compact Folding for Easy Storage

The Thule OutPace 2 folds down into a compact unit measuring just 76 × 24 × 72cm.

This makes it easy to store in a garage, shed or suitable vehicle boot between journeys.
