Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying 58 lb E-Bikes at Rear of 5th Wheel
Question:
I have a 2019 Jayco Eagle fifth wheel with a factory installed 2 inch rear receiver rated for a maximum of 300 lbs. Will this bike rack work for my application with two electric bikes weighing 58 lbs each? I would definitley secure the bike with additional webbing and also add a weather proof cover for the bikes.

Expert Reply:
We really only have one bike rack that's going to work well for you but it's not the Hollywood Racks # HLY84FR that you referenced which is not rated for use at the rear of a fifth wheel. Instead, you'd want the Swagman E-Spec part # S94FR which is rated for use behind a fifth wheel and has a 70 lb per bike capacity so it would work great with your 58 lb E-bikes. The rack weighs 60 lbs so you'd have plenty of hitch capacity left over as well.
