We measured the ramp that comes with the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # Y36FR is about 51" long. This is one of the only bike racks on the market that offers a ramp for easy loading or unloading; this especially comes in handy with the heavy electric bikes. The on-road weight capacity is 66lbs per bike which is pretty impressive, and the off-road weight rating is 40lbs per bike.

A really nice feature is the cable lock that comes with the Yakima OnRamp; this secures your bikes to the carrier to prevent your bikes from getting stolen. The OnRamp does come with an anti-rattle hich pin to reduce wobble and vibration but it does not lock, however, you can add HitchLock # Y07235 to keep the carrier secured to your vehicle's trailer hitch receiver and deter theft. The tire cradles allow up to 3-1/4" wide bike tires. If you have a fat bike then you can add FatStraps for Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack # Y23FR which allows tire sizes up to 26 x 4.5", 27.5" x 4.5" and 29x 3.25". I have included a demonstration video for you to check out.
