Best Bike Rack For Loading Electric Bikes
Question:
Hi, Im wondering if the SA4412B would work for 2 RadMission 1 Rad Power Bikes? Im unclear if the downtube cradle will extend to the cross bar above the battery cross bar? Thanks for your help!

With frame mounted bike racks like the Saris Freedom # SA4412B you can usually find a spot to mount your bike down, but it's not the simplest bike rack to get your bikes loaded up. I would recommend getting the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B. It is worth the money 100%. It is the more premium option but if you're using this more than 10 times a year it will be worth it as it's MUCH easier to use and just a much better rack all around. If you're looking for a more cost effective option that's still an upgrade from the Saris Freedom, get the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider # HLY84FR. It uses a frame hook which is much easier to use than the frame strap on the Saris Freedom.
