Recommended Bike Rack For 2 Pedago Interceptor Electric Bikes
Question:

Expert Reply:
It looks like your Pedago Interceptor electric bikes weigh about 57.8lbs including the battery. I recommend the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack for Fat Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # SA4412B-FB which has a weight capacity of 60lbs per bike. This bike rack can hold tires up to 5" wide. It is the best option for transporting your two electric bikes and works well with step-thru bikes since it has adjustable cradles to attach to the bike frame.
I do recommend adding the 8' Cable Lock and Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock # SA984. This will keep your bikes locked to the carrier and also keep the carrier locked to your vehicle's trailer hitch receiver to deter theft. I attached demonstration videos for you regarding these products.
