Best Bike Rack For A Rad Rover 5 Fat Tire Electric Bike
Question:
What would be a compatible bike rack for my RadRover 5 E-bike? It has 4 inch tires and the bike weighs 70lbs with the battery.

I just got off the phone with a Rad Power Bike specialist to learn more about your situation and found a solution to your problem. The RadRover 5 weighs 69.9lbs with the battery installed. I along with Rad Power Bikes recommend that you do not haul your bike with a battery installed. The battery weighs 7.7lbs so you are sitting at 61.9lbs without any accessories and no battery.
So now you have some options when it comes to bike racks. I always go for the highest weight rated bike rack when hauling an e-bike. So, if I were you, I would grab the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2 E-Bike Rack # HLY74FR. It will fit your RadRover 5 because it has a weight capacity of 80lbs and fits tires up to 5 inches.
The # HLY74FR is a great fit for you, you just need to have a class II hitch or higher, but that won't be an issue for you since you're driving a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.
