RV Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying 57 lb Electric Mountain Bikes

Question:

I need a bike rack for C class motor home that will carry two covered 57 pound electric mountain bikes. Is there a license plate bracket available to relocate the license plate on the rack as it will be blocked?

The Hollywood Racks RV Rider part # HLY647FR is rated for heavier bikes like your electric mountain bikes and is also rated for the rougher ride quality that is present at the rear of motorhomes. This rack has an 80 lb weight capacity and would work well for you. With bike rack use, we have yet to hear about a license plate being obstructed by one and having it be a legal issue.

It's a very valid concern of yours but we've found that police officers generally aren't too concerned about bike racks blocking license plates.
