Are There Wider Ratcheting Hooks Available For The Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack
Question:
Does Swagman offer a wider hold down clamp for the e-spec given a lot of ebikes are quite wide where the battery is and the current clamp is designed for a narrow designed support frame.

Expert Reply:
The ratcheting hooks for the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR only come in one size unfortunately. That being said the hook doesn't have to fully press down to where the frame touches the top arch of the hook. As long as you a portion of the hook touches both sides of the frame you to prevent it from moving side to side you'll be fine. If you don't feel comfortable with it like this then you can also use a frame adapter # 64005 to get a more secure connection between the hook and bike.
