Question:
How easy is it to load e bikes?

Expert Reply:
The Hollywood Rack Sport Rider part # HLY84FR does come with adjustable large wheel cradles that accommodate larger tires that some e-bikes come equipped with. The adjustable wheel cradles also come in handy with larger wheel bases like those of a most e-bikes because you can move the cradles back and forth on the horizontal arms to accommodate the length of your bike.
Securing the e-bikes on the Hollywood Sport Rider is easy because of the design of the bike rack but the ease of loading them depends on the weight of your bike and how far your hitch receiver is from the ground. You will need to lift the e-bikes to get them on the rack. If your hitch receiver sits higher you will be lifting the bikes up higher.
If you need an e-bike compatible bike rack that makes loading e-bikes easy, I recommend Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 to carry your e-bikes. I recommend the EasyFold because it comes with an aluminum ramp that allows you to roll your bikes on and off the rack.
