Don’t know which model I have but it’s suitable for two eMTB’s. Three different locks (2 for the bikes and 1 for the 2” receiver. A ratchet mechanism for securing each tire and mounting post which allows a few options. Folds up like a large piece of luggage with wheels when not needed.

We use this rack a few times a year for vacation trips. Apparently on the newer models there are lights and a place for the license plate.

If I needed or used a bike rack several times a week, I would get a full sized rack. Storage of the Easy Fold was the main reason for purchasing this type. It hides away easily.

I have just bought the x3, and find it good , easy to use, we got the box with it for when camping and need to take more gear.

Expensive item, but you’ll get some back when you’re done with it and it’s time to sell.

I’ve got the easyfold xt3. It’s great. Used it for 2 weeks straight in the alps, loading 3 bikes everyday for different bike parks, and then the 2 day drive back to the uk.

It’s a touch short for XL 29ers, and the two rear bikes are a bit close together, so I have duct tape on my forks to protect them and the longer straps for fat bike tyres.

Apparently there’s a new model out now which gives more space between the bikes.

I've used a Buzz Rack E-Hornet 2 for the last year and a bit, mostly for short (<1hr) trips plus one long (550 miles) trip to Scotland. It's been excellent - really solid, easy to load with secure arms and wheel straps. At £280-ish from roofbox.co.uk (who have provided great service) it's way cheaper than the Thule options. Usually I'm just carrying my Fuel Exe but sometimes my wife's Powefly too, and it copes just fine. Can't think of anything not to love about it.
