Recommended Rack for Carrying 2 Electric Bikes in Front Mount Receiver
Question:
I have a 2016 Nissan Titan XD with a front mounted Curt Class II hitch. I use an Allen bike hanging bike rack to carry two regular bikes. I would like to upgrade to a pair of 45# e-bikes. Do you have a platform bike rack that I could use on the front of my pickup truck? Thanks

Expert Reply:
A front mount receiver will typically have a 2 inch receiver opening like what's seen on a Class III hitch.
If that's the case, I'd recommend the Swagman E-Spec, part # S94FR. This rack will handle 2 bikes weighing up to 70 lbs each. This is more capacity than you actually need, but if you decide to upgrade to heavier bikes in the future, this rack will still work for you. The rack also includes keyed alike locks for theft deterrence.
