Recommended Bike Rack For E-Bike and 3 Regular Bikes on 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Receiver

Question:

Here is what I need. A crossover between the HR1450E and HR1400. I have 1 Electric bike with 4 inch tires and 3 regular bikes that I need to put on the 2 inch receive on my motorhome. The HR1450E looks appropriate for the electric so is there a adapter I can add to put 2 non-electric standard bikes on with it or how do I make this happen??? Thank you

I reached out to the manufacturer and have a solution for you. Because your electric bike has 4 inch tires, I recommend the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack # HLY84FR and then you can use the 2 Bike Expansion Accessory for Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HR1475Z.

The only thing to be careful of is the total weight of the bikes cannot exceed 200 lbs when using this combination. The e-bike should ride closest to the vehicle.

This bike rack is not rated for use on an RV, but none of the electric bike racks are. You may want to consider the Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack # S80600 which would be able to work with your e-bike.
