Bike Rack Recommendation For Two Electric Bikes On A 2020 Surveyor Legend 202RKLE

Question:

We are looking for a two bike rack that can hold up to 100lbs for our Surveyor Legend, but having a hard time determining a solution that works. The placement of the spare tire in the back makes bumper racks a challenge. The A-Frame in front has limited space. Im worried that ladder mounts wont bear the weight of an eBike. Can you recommend anything that might work for us?

I recommend something like the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier for A-Frame Trailers # CC-275 which mounts to the tongue of your trailer and can support up to 100lbs.

This way this will avoid the spare tire on the rear of your trailer, and this rack will go over your propane tanks and attach to the frame of the trailer.

Alternatively, you can install a hitch to the rear of your trailer with # 13703 and a hitch extender like # BX88264 to push a bike rack out past the spare tire. If you're in need of a bike rack, the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # S94FR is a great choice and is capable of supporting up to 66lbs per bike, giving you plenty of capacity for your two bikes.

If you are planning on using a rear hitch and adapter, you'll want to make a measurement to determine the correct clearance needed. Measure from the center of your pinhole to the outer edge of your spare tire. This will give you the appropriate amount of clearance needed for your bike rack.
