Hitch Bike Rack for Four E-Bikes
Question:
Is there an add on 2 more bikes available that will work with this model?

Expert Reply:
The Thule EasyFold XT 2 E-Bike Platform, part # TH903202, does not have an add-on for additional bikes, but we do offer an alternative that will get you what you need.
It's the Yakima HoldUp 2 Bike Rack, part # Y02443, combined with its 2-bike add-on, the Plus 2 Add-on, part # Y02446. These two together will allow you to carry up to four backs and maintain the same tilt-away and fold-up features of the Thule XT 2. I've included a video review of the two Yakima parts together.
There are a few things to consider, though. The first is that the Yakima rack allows up 60 pounds per bike, and the total weight of all four bikes cannot exceed 200 pounds. Remember to load the heaviest bikes closer to the vehicle.
Second, this bike rack fits Class III 2-inch receivers, so make sure your hitch is in fact 2 inches.
Third, the acceptable wheel dimensions for this rack are between 20 and 29 inches for diameter and up to 3 inches for width. Ensure that your bikes fall within these dimensions.
