E-Bike Rack Recommendation for Front Hitch of RV
Question:
Hello I am looking for RV bike rack for the following I have a 2010 Pleasureway Excel TS on a 2009 E350 Super Van. I have a Draw Tite #65053 hitch on the front. Could you recommend an RV rated bike rack for two ebikes 65 lbs each which could go on this front hitch. Also if the bike rack goes on front hitch does it need to be RV rated Thanks for any help with this

Helpful Expert Reply:
Since the hitch you plan to install the bike rack in on your RV is a front hitch you aren't limited to only bike racks approved for RVs like hitches at the rear of the vehicle. This is due to the longer length from the center of the axle to the rear of the vehicle on RVs.
An e-bike rack like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 would work well for you as it has the needed capacity, has a frame clamp style that works great with alternative framed e-bikes and comes with a ramp setup that makes loading and unloading easier.
