Platform Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying Bikes with Fenders
Question:
Good afternoon. I have to show in full size cruisers with full fenders. I'm looking for a two bike rack that I can sit these bikes into with ease of use. I noticed that most of these have brackets that clamp onto the top of the tire. Using that style, would it cause damage to a fender? What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
Since your bikes have fenders a better solution for a bike rack would be one that attaches to the bike frame instead of one that attaches to the tires like the T2 Pro XTR part # TH69TX that you referenced.
For a similar rack that would work great I would recommend the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Platform Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH92BJ. This is a platform bike rack that would easily carry your two bikes and would make loading and unloading your bikes easy as well.
