The maximum single bike capacity for the trunk-mounted Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack # TH65JV is 33 lbs; thank you for pointing out the previous answer, it has been updated.
If you want to carry a 55 lb bike you will need a trailer hitch and a hitch-mounted bike rack because the maximum single bike capacity for most trunk-mounted racks is 35 lbs. If you let me know what year, make and model your car is I'd be happy to recommend a hitch and rack for you.
