Thule Excellent 3rd Bike Rail is a purpose-built accessory that transforms your existing Thule Excellent Bike Rack into a versatile three-bike carrier. Designed to securely cradle a 3rd bike without compromising stability or ease of use, this rail gives you the flexibility to bring along an additional ride on family trips, weekend getaways, or group outings.

Precision adjustability for a perfect fit

The standout feature of the 3rd Rail is its ability to adjust from side to side and from front to back. This level of adjustability lets you dial in the exact position for bikes with different frame geometries and wheelbases, ensuring each bike sits balanced and stable during transit. Whether you’re carrying a compact road bike, a full-suspension mountain bike, or a kids’ bike, you can fine-tune the alignment to minimize interference and maximize clearance between frames and wheels.

Secure, straightforward loading for real-world travel

With its simple, intuitive design, the 3rd Rail is built to integrate seamlessly with the existing Thule Excellent Bike Rack. The rail provides a stable mounting platform for the third bike, while the accompanying clamps grip securely to prevent unwanted movement on the road. This setup helps reduce sway and protect both bikes and your vehicle, so you can focus on the journey rather than fiddling with straps.

Ideal for families, clubs, and weekend explorers

If you regularly transport three bikes, this rail offers a practical upgrade that keeps your options open without needing to upgrade to a larger rack. It’s especially valuable for families with multiple riders, cycling clubs practicing together, or weekend warriors who want to maximize cargo capacity on every trip.
