Bike Rack with Ramp Recommendation for Carrying 65 lb E-Bike
Question:
Can the loading ramp be used with the Thule T2 pro rack that is several years old? Does the ramp come with new pastic end caps that can be fitted into the older rack that will hold the ramp ? Is the ramp solid and stable enough for 65 lb ebikes?

Helpful Expert Reply:
If your bike weighs 65 lbs it shouldn't be used on a Thule T2 part # TH9034XT as it's weight capacity is 60 lbs, also the only Thule ramp we have is for a replacement for the Thule Easy Fold XT part # TH903202 that you referenced.
In your situation your best option is to replace your bike rack with the Easy Fold as it has the ramp like you are interested in and has the weight capacity you are wanting as well. It's also very easy to use and holds the bikes securely so we recommend it highly. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.
