Best Bike Racks for Biria Electric Folding Bikes With Fat Tires

Question

Question:

Biria folding electric bikes. We have recently purchase two of the referenced bikes. I would very much prefer to transport them on a bike rack versus folding them up and lifting into the car. The tires are right close to four inch. Any suggestions

It's definitely a good idea to transport your Biria Electric Folding bikes on a bike rack and we do have a couple of really good options which will allow you to carry two of these bikes, which from my research are 55 lbs and like you said, do have tires which are 4 inches wide. Since these bikes have fenders you will need a frame-mounted bike rack and there are two options to choose from.

The best bike rack for your Biria Electric Folding bikes is the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 because it is the simplest bike rack to use for loading and unloading bikes and offers a plethora of convenience features that is unmatched among bike racks. The EasyFold XT has a 65 lb per-bike weight capacity and is compatible with your 4 inch tires with the addition of the Fat Bike Straps for Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH985101.

The EasyFold XT comes with an aluminum ramp so you can easily load your Biria, which is something that can be a challenge with bikes that are as heavy as yours. The rack also uses padded clamps and wheel straps to secure bikes, which is why it will work on bikes with fenders; if you take a look at the accompanying photo a customer sent in, you can see how their bikes are secured even though they have fenders and an alternative-style frame.

The EasyFold XT also has locks to help secure your investments in your bikes and rack, and completely folds up and has wheels and a handle so once you remove it from your vehicle it is simple to store. I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well of the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 .

I have a solution for you. Here at Etrailer, we strongly discourage using wheel-mounted bike racks like the Kuat NV 2.0 #NV22B for bikes with fenders. Mounting wheels with fenders can cause the fenders to crack or become damaged, especially with the…

Answer 7

Class I and Class II hitches both have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The difference is that a Class I hitch has a lower tongue weight rating, usually 200 pounds and a lower towing rating, usually 2,000 pounds. A Class II hitch usually has a tongue…

Answer 12

Either the Kuat Tranfer 1 #KU64FR or the RockyMounts MonoRail Solo 1 #RKY10007 would handle the bikes you describe easily. Both would hold the bikes by the tires, so the fact that the rack won't come into contact with the frame will work well…
