As long as your electric bikes with fat tires do not weigh more than 80 lbs each and the fat tires are not wider than 5", the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack part # HLY84FR should work well for you. The Hollywood bike rack is designed to be used with a 2" trailer hitch receiver. This is the only bike rack we have that is specifically designed to be used with both electric and fat tire bikes. If you have a 1-1/4" trailer hitch receiver I would need to know the weight of your bikes in order to see if we have a solution for you.

The Hollywood Sport Rider SE is a frame mount, platform bike rack with cushioned hooks that slide along the upright mast for quick, easy bike loading and unloading. The bike rack can also be folded up when not in use for storage in addition to tilted downward for access to the rear cargo area. It also comes with a lock to secure the bike rack to the hitch receiver and a cable lock to secure the bikes to the bike rack.

As long as the flat tow wiring is wired in before the 4-Way #C93ZV and you connect the power for the converter directly to the battery it will work. I have seen several use Magnetic Lights #TL21RK which they will wire in on the main harness to have…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
