• Can E-Bikes Be Carried On Back of Flat-Towed Vehicle with 1-1/4" Hitch
  I do have an option for you but that would be an enormous task and I am not aware of any such bike rack suited for the job. Instead, I recommend using the Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mounts part # 325-GH-404 as this will allow you to place a bike rack in the top slot and then the tow bar is one of the lower slots so you can carry a bike rack and flat-tow a vehicle. For a bike rack, I recommend the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack part # HLY64FR.
