Recommended Bike Rack With Ramp For A 60 lb Electric Bike
Question:
I cannot lift my heavy bike on to a bike rack. Last year I purchased the motor cycle hitch. The openi ngs for the tires did not line up. Then I bought a hitch with a ramp. Not wide enough with ramp fólded. Would appreciate a sugjestion. Thanks

We have 2 options for you to carry a 60 lb e-bike. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2-Bike Carrier for Electric Bicycles - 2" Hitch - Tilting # HLY84FR and the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Platform Rack # TH903202. The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider will require lifting, whereas the Thule EasyFold has a ramp for you to guide your bike into place. I've attached a video of this for you.
If you choose to go with the Sport Rider, the easiest way to load your bike would be to tilt it down, so you don't need to lift the bike as far, but then you will need to still be able to tilt the rack up with the bike loaded for travel.
