Bike Rack for Carrying Two GenZe E-Bikes
Question:
I have a Kuat Sherpa bike rack and two GenZe e-bikes that weigh 42 lbs each with out the batteries. The rack is on a 2015 Mercedes GLK Kuat says the rack is for bikes up to 40lbs each. Is there leeway in this calculation? Thank you!

We have bike racks that would be more ideal for your bikes, but the Kuat Sherpa # SH22G can't carry 42 lb bikes unfortunately.
For a similar rack with a higher weight capacity, we have the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR that can carry bikes that weigh up to 60 lbs. This would be the best solution most similar to the Transfer. I attached a review video for this bike rack for you to check out as well.
