Description

Product Overview

The Thule Verse bike rack ramp is engineered for durability and convenience. Constructed from high‑grade aluminum, the ramp resists corrosion and supports up to 88 pounds, making it suitable for e‑bikes, mountain bikes, and other heavy two‑wheelers. Measuring 53 inches in length, it bridges the gap between ground and vehicle floor, even on taller SUVs and trucks. The ramp folds flat, reducing its footprint to a compact 20 × 5.1 × 3.5 inches for easy storage.

Designed for real‑world scenarios, this ramp simplifies loading at campgrounds, ski resorts, and home garages. Whether you’re loading a heavy electric mountain bike onto a roof rack or unloading a commuter bike after a long ride, the smooth aluminum surface guides wheels upward without resistance. The foldable feature allows you to store the ramp in the trunk or garage when not in use, keeping your vehicle clutter‑free.
