Thule EasyFold 3: The Ultimate Bike Rack for Motorhomes & Campervans
Looking for a bike rack that doesn’t compromise rear access on your motorhome or campervan? The Thule EasyFold 3 might just be your perfect match. With a clever modification, it becomes even more versatile—offering full tilt-forward access without removing your bikes. The Thule EasyFold 3 is available as a two or three bike option.
Full Tilt Access: A Simple Yet Powerful Upgrade
In our latest install, we discovered that by removing the platform stay cable—which normally limits the tilt angle—we could allow the Thule EasyFold 3 to fully tilt forward, granting unobstructed access to the rear of the motorhome.
This tweak means you can open rear doors, access storage, or step into your living space without detaching the rack or unloading bikes. It’s a small change with a big impact on usability. The Thule bike carrier pictures is a Thule EasyFold 3, 2 Bike Carrier.
Why the Thule EasyFold 3 Is Ideal for Camper Life
Compact & Foldable: Folds down for easy storage when not in use
Tool-Free Mounting: Quick and secure attachment to tow bars
High Load Capacity: Carries up to 4 bikes, including e-bikes with bike add-on
Integrated Tilt Mechanism: Allows partial access even without modification
Secure Bike Holding: Adjustable arms and torque-limiting knobs for stability
Whether you're touring the UK or heading off-grid, this rack adapts to your lifestyle.
⚠️ Safety & Warranty Considerations
Removing the platform stay cable is a user-led modification. While it enhances functionality, it may not be officially supported by Thule. Always ensure the rack remains secure when tilted, especially with bikes mounted. Proceed with care and consult your installer if unsure.
