Recommended Platform Bike Rack for Fat Tire E-Bikes
Question:
My fat tire ebikes weigh 65 lbs each, will this bike rack support them? My ebikes also have fenders, can the J hooks clamp down on the frame of the bike instead of the tires?

Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but you can't use a wheel mount bike rack on a bike with fenders. Instead, you will need to use a frame mount bike rack like the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack part # TH903202 which is e-bike rated and will work with fat tires when using the Fat Bike Straps part # TH985101. The EasyFold also has ramps for easy bike loading, wheels to maneuver the rack, and it folds up for a compact storage.
