At just 7kg, the Thule HangOn 3 would have to be one of the lightest bike racks around, but it's no lightweight. This simple ball-mount, aluminium hanging rack can hold 3 bikes up to a maximum total of 45kg!

The HangOn 3 uses a simple but strong ball clamp that requires no pre-adjustment and is capable of tilting without removal to get access to your rear door or boot while the bikes are removed. It folds up for easy storage and is a cinch to attach to your tow ball making you ready to go in mere minutes.

The bikes are held securely in the movable frame cups by soft rubber straps ensuring your investment never gets damaged by the rack and there are two long woven nylon straps to keep your bikes from swaying in the breeze.
