Is There a Loading Ramp Add-On for the Saris MHS Modular Bike Rack
Question:
I have the 2 inch Saris MHS 2+1 and is mounted on a 2021 F150. Loading a heavy e-bike is difficult if just one person. The folks at saris recommended I reach out to see if you folks have any options/ recommendations for a loading ramp for this bike carrier. Thanks

I have an alternative solution for you but as of right now (July 2022) Saris hasn't come out with a loading ramp for the MHS modular bike rack.
For a wheel-mount bike rack that has an add-on ramp available we have the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack for 4 Bikes # BA22B-BA02B which is compatible with the Access Ramp # ANVBRB but the weight capacity is reduced to 40 lbs per bike with the 4-bike setup. The Kuat NV 2.0 Base is definitely a solid choice in a bike rack but the MHS is a specialty rack that I'm sure will be difficult to part with (as I'm sure you wouldn't want 2 massive bike racks in storage). Saris may eventually come out with a ramp, as they had one for the discontinued MTR, but as of right now there unfortunately isn't a ramp add-on for your Saris MHS Modular Bike Rack for 3 Bikes # SAR35MR.
Attached are some videos of the Kuat setup if you're interested in checking that out.
