Specs:
Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.
This easy-to-use, hitch-mounted rack lets you transport 2 bikes on the back of your vehicle. It has fold-up anti-sway cradles and ratcheting straps that make it easy to load and unload your bikes. The cradles are set 7" apart, so there's enough space between your bikes to prevent them from becoming tangled on the rack. HitchSwitch levers let you tilt the rack away from your vehicle for access to your rear cargo area and fold the arms down when not in use.
Folding Dual Arms with HitchSwitch Lever
The Camber has dual arms that provide your bikes with excellent support and ground clearance during transport.
The upper HitchSwitch lever lets you fold the arms down when not in use.
HideAway Anti-Sway Cradles
The Camber has HideAway anti-sway cradles that secure each bike twice along the top tube and once along the seat post or downtube. This reduces rocking to help eliminate bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact. The soft rubber cradles rotate around the arms to accommodate your bikes' frames. Each cradle is set 7" apart on the arms, so there is more space between your bikes when compared with many other hanging-style racks. The added space helps prevent your bikes from becoming tangled on the rack.
The cradles have grooves on the surface that prevent your brake and shifter cables from getting pinched.
Durable, dual-molded ratchet straps hold your bikes firmly in place on the cradles. You can remove the lower straps and fold the cradles up against the arms to make it easier to slide your bikes onto the rack.
Tilting Rack with HitchSwitch Lever
The rack tilts for easy access to your vehicle's rear cargo area. Just pull up on the HitchSwitch lever at the base of the rack, and lower the rack into position. When you're ready to go, lift the rack up until it snaps into place with an audible click.
The HitchSwitch lever is located right behind the base of the mast. This makes it easy to reach with one hand and steady the mast with the other.
The Camber easily installs in your hitch with the included threaded hitch pin. Just slide the shank into your receiver, insert the hitch pin, and then tighten it down with the included tool. The pin also works as an anti-wobble device to eliminate sway and rattle in the receiver.
Hitch Compatibility
The rack includes a sleeve that slides over the 1-1/4" shank to convert the rack for use with 2" hitch receivers. The sleeve attaches to the shank with a single screw and can be installed or removed in seconds.

assembly instructions clear
able to assemble and mount myself
extremely pleased with appearance and stability of products
Not happy with it yet. hard to secure a full suspension mountain bike. Trying a different way to place my bike on the rack.
Overall excellent product and better customer service. Thank you for the follow up. I have already referred some of my friends to you. The multiple pictures and videos and extensive specs make a huge difference in decision making.
I haver transported my 2 bikes hundreds of miles with this Thule carrier with no problems or worries. Best feature is the two release mechanisms: One lowers the bike support arm into a vertical position for compactness; the other lowers the entire carrier (with or without a bike attached) so that the tailgate of your vehicle can be opened without hitting the rack. The latches work, feel, and sound solid. So much easier than the steel pins I had to remove / reinsert on my old rack. Only minor issue is the securing strap that is supposed to wrap around the down tube of your bike frame; for my bikes this strap is too far away from the down tube to be of much utility. But the 2 main straps that secure the bike to the carrier via the top (horizontal) tube (or a bike frame adapter like Hollywood Racks if you are using one) work just fine. Heavy steel construction, beautifully welded and assembled.
Functioned perfectly, only problem was 2 rubber straps broke , other than that nice product.
I didn't realize this thing is really built well, it's heavy and all materal is thick and sturdy. My only concern is my reciever is 2 1/8th inch square, the filler is exactly 2 inch which does leave some up and down movement. I suppose I could shim it, but not sure if that will stay. Otherwise this is a built like battleship bike rack for transporting bikes.
Exactly as described. A great heavy duty purchase
Excellent service, excellent product, excellent price.
No issues.
Easy to install and works like a charm . Being able to open the hatch on my Jeep by simply flipping back the bike rack is so convenient..
It took minutes to install the rack to our Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Was able to assemble and install in about 10-15 minutes. locks into place with no wiggle.
Quick and easy ordering. Arrived when it was supposed to!
Review from a similar Camber in Hitch Bike Racks
I love this bike rack. I had no problem attaching it to the hitch on my 2018 Honda CRV. The HitchSwitch levers make it easy to to bring down the bike rack to get to the cargo area. Strong and solid Thule bike rack.
Great service with James and etrailer.
Review from a similar Camber in Hitch Bike Racks
This has been a great product and a huge upgrade over our old trunk-mount bike rack.
It holds our bikes super steady even when we're driving over gravel or dirt roads. I never have had a problem getting the bikes on or off the rack, and although I have heard that some people have trouble with the fasteners, I've never had a problem with ours.
The only minor issue I have had is that the bolt attaching the rack to the trailer hitch gradually loosens slightly after extensive use with 3 or 4 bikes. Every ten trips or so I re-tighten it a little.
