• Carrying A 70 lb E-Bike On A Yakima Rack And Roll Trailer With Round Crossbars.
  Hello again Jeffrey. We do have a potential option for you. Does this 70 lb e-bike happen to have a removable battery? We always recommend removing the battery when transporting an e-bike, but more importantly, removing the battery will allow us to cut a few lbs. If the battery can be removed, I recommend you use the Kuat Piston SR Roof Bike Rack # KU32VR. This rack is compatible with virtually any crossbar shape, and this will include the round bars on your Yakima Rack and Roll trailer....

• Recommended Truck Bed Crossbars and Bike Rack for a Full Size Truck
  I would be happy to help you. There are a few ladder racks that use the stake pockets but for your application there's nothing with that style mounting method. I recommend the Yakima BedRock HD Truck Bed Rack item # Y01160-59. These crossbars attach similar to a bed liner or camper shell. They use clamps to secure them to your Silverado's bedsides. The included locks will help to prevent theft. The Kuat Piston item # KU32VR is a great option and would have more than enough capacity...

• Roof Mount Bike Rack That Can Carry a Bike with 18" Diameter Wheels
  We do have one roof mount bike rack that will work with your bike that has an 18" wheel diameter.

• How Many Kuat Piston KU32VR Roof Mounted Bike Racks Can Be Installed On The Roof Of My Vehicle?
  The short answer to your question is, probably. I mean a couple things by that. First, the Rhino Rack roof rack set up you have is rated up to 165 pounds and the Kuat Piston # KU32VR bike racks (which is a great option for a carbon fiber bike since it doesn't touch the frame) weigh around 25 pounds a piece. This would leave 90 pounds of capacity left for your bikes. That said, carbon fiber road bikes should be well under 30 pounds per bike so this really shouldn't be an issue, but it is...

• Can The Kuat Piston SR Bike Rack KU32VR Be Mounted On Both Sides Of The Ibex Truck Bed Rack?
  To start with, the Kuat Ibex Truck Bed Rack # KU36ZR is designed to fit a 2022 Toyota Tacoma with a 6 foot bed (with or without the Deck Rail System), so just double check your bed size to be sure. If you have the 5 foot bed, you will need the # KU29ZR as it is designed for the shorter bed (you would also need the shorter MOLLE panel # KU74ZR in this case). Next up, everything you mention will absolutely work together. The Piston Bike Rack Mount for Ibex Truck Bed Racks # KU67ZR will mount...

• Will The Kuat Piston SR KU32VR Work With A 29+ Bike Tire
  Kuat does specify that a 29" tire is the largest tire that the Piston Pro SR # KU32VR will accommodate. In the case of a 29"+ tire It will still work well. The "+" refers to the width of the tire rather than the diameter. The 29+ tires are generally between 3" to 5" wide. The Piston Pro will accommodate larger tires, up to 5" wide. As long as your wheelbase is less than 53" you will still be able to ratchet each arm securely in to place.
