Why We Like The Thule Revert 6-Bike Hitch Rack
Innovative and convenient, the Thule Revert 6-Bike Hitch Rack helps us carry the whole crew's bikes from home to trailhead with a hassle-free design. This vertical rack assists with raising and tilting the bike rack away from the rear of the vehicle when fully loaded for access to the trunk, while also being able to lower and raise for weight assistance. The roll-in and roll-out front wheel basket design minimizes the need for lifting bikes, while the durable wheel straps ensure bikes are firmly secured during transit to prevent fork or frame damage.

A little heavy but other than that it's great.
Solid very sturdy. Definitely is going to last me a long time. Just a little heavy getting it installed and removed

Finally The Best Vertical Bike Rack
I have been so pleased with this rack. I had a competitors rack for the lest 3 years, I am so happy I sold it and went with the far superior Thule Revert. This is hands down the best Vertical bike rack on the market.

Thule ReVert
I am a bicycle sales rep in British Columbia. I use the Thule ReVert to travel with 6 E-bikes. The ReVert handles the weight of the bikes flawlessly. The adjustable wedge keeps the Revert solid in your receiver. If you are thinking about getting your next bike rack, think Thule Revert!

So far so good!
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- 6 Bike
I've used a few times now and I'm really happy with it so far. There was a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to get the bikes on and off (I'd never used a vertical rack before), but I've got it figured out now and it's so much easier than loading mountain bikes on my 4 bike tray, no more heavy bike lifting or loosening headsets to make them all fit. My kid's 24" mountain bike fits without the adapter (Transition Ripcord), but I think I would need it for anything smaller.

Outstanding Rack!
This rack makes loading Enduro and even E-Bikes a breeze. The integrated lock (add-on) is a must, and the bike repair (wash) stand is also a great addition.

Très satisfaite !
Très contente de notre achat. Le rack est bien fait, léger mais robuste et facile d'utilisation. J'aime beaucoup qu'on puisse avoir accès au coffre même avec les vélos dessus.

Great Sturdy Rack that’s easy to Lift Loaded
Bought this about a month ago and it’s an awesome sturdy rack. The lift assist makes it a pleasure.

Solid rack, easy to use
This rack is awesome. Assembles easily. Holds bikes securely, although I have not taken it on logging roads yet. The hydraulic actuator makes loading and unloading easy. When empty you need to pull the rack down when lowering it.

Solid rack with nice features
Ive taken this out on three multiday trips so far. We have a four person family, but wanted some extra capacity for friends or to take our gravel and mountain bikes on longer trips. This is a great rack - solid, simple to put on the vehicle with all the high quality components you’d expect from Thule. Nothing is chintzy. It’s slick and runs smooth and probably the best rack you can buy for 6 bike hitch set up - who doesn’t want a little pneumatic “help” to lift bikes after a long day of riding? This rack could be perfect (to me) with a few minor tweaks. Take my opinions below with a grain of salt: - it’s super solid, but this quality means it’s HEAVY. Well duh, you say, it holds six bikes! Yep, you’re right but that doesn’t mean it’s any easier for me to get on/off a vehicle by myself. It’s probably doable, but I always get help to avoid any catastrophic back-window-smashing. I get the solid construction = weight, but if the bright minds at Thule devise a way to shed any kilos in the future it’d be a bonus. - the arm controlling the pneumatics could be longer. Yep, that’d mean more weight (see above) but I find it can be tricky to reach through six L/XL frame bikes on there. The pad on it is ergonomic and really helpful, though. Maybe I’m just a t-rex. - the pneumatic lock out pin is not reachable from the rear position you’d be in to use the lowering arm. So many times Ive gone to lower the rack, realize I forgot to remove the lock pin and have to walk around the rack to get between the vehicle/rack, and then walk back around to the back of the rack to use the lowering arm. Not a huge deal, but if there was ever a way to devise a location for the pin on the same face as the lowering arm it’d be nice for the small-brains like me. - not fatbike compatible unless you purchase separate kits. Sucks because you just spent a wallop of money on this rack already and also at time of purchase the kits weren’t available (think they are now, and that’s why I’m on the site today). Luckily we still have our Pro XT we can use for fat bikes, but an “everything” rack is what all consumers lust for. Now that those are out of the way, these are some bonuses you may not appreciate unless you pull the trigger and actually use this: - my 7/9 year old can remove their own bikes from this once rack is lowered. They’re not quite strong enough to lift them on yet, but what a bonus for parents used to doing all the work in the lot (adult bikes can be rolled straight on with no lifting depending on the height of your hitch) - the rubberized tie downs are a dream. We also have a ProXT and the ratchet straps on that can be cumbersome, especially in the cold. The straps on this are easy to do with shaky or cold hands. Even the kids can do them up. - compared to the Pro XT, this holds the bikes higher which means we get less road salt and gunk kicked up on our cassettes. Love me a rack that loves my bikes. - Speaking of crud, we find it’s faster and easier to spray off the bikes in the wand car wash because we can get them from 3 sides - with the ProXT we had to be cautious about clearance. Not an issue with this one as the rack slopes up from the hitch so much. We’ve taken this to Rec Sites and up logging roads with zero issue - the van will bottom out long before the rack will - the addition of the pneumatic “help” to lift the rack is amazing. Seriously. Game changer. I can lift six bikes with *very little* effort. Cheers to Thule for this, my end of day shaky arms thank you. - no, our bikes do not rub together. I just bought a Specialized Turbo Levo and I am PRECIOUS about its beautiful lavender paint - zero concerns with this rack with a mix of youth/adult bikes. We’ve yet to have 6 all adult bikes on it. So there’s the straight goods. If I had to buy a rack again I’d go right back to this one.
