Recommended Bike Rack for a 72-Pound E-Bike  

Question:

I have another question about the Hollywood Rack Sport Rider SE bike for 2. The video mention that I would need another extension for my step-thru ebike. Do you have a part number for this extension?

With a bike as heavy as 72 pounds, we only have two options able to carry that much.

The first is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Se, part # HLY84FR. It's a platform-style, frame-mount rack capable of holding 2 bikes up to 80 pounds each. I've linked to a video review of this below.

The second is the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO, part # LGA77FR. This one's a hanging-style, wheel-mount rack capable of holding 2 bikes up to 75 pounds each.

Neither of these have plate holders or lights, but again, with such heavy bikes, your choices are limited. Still, these are both great racks for Class III, 2" hitches.

Because the Sport Rider SE is a frame mount, there is an additional piece needed for step-thru bikes. That piece is an adapter bar. We have many here, but I recommend the Swagman Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Electric, Step Through, and Cruiser Bikes, part # S57FR. It expands from 25" - 31". This will create a top tube for the hooks of the Sport Rider SE to push down on.
