Bike Rack Carriers Capable of Supporting 65LB E-Bikes On a Class C Motorhome
Question:
My bikes weigh 65lbs each, this rack says on an RV they can only be 40lbs. I have a 28 class c on a e450 chassis will this rack work for us? Thanks

I have a couple choices for you as the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack # Y36FR will only allow for up to 40lbs safely when mounted on your 2018 Jayco Redhawk Class C on the Ford E-450 Chassis.
The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack # HLY84FR allows for up to 2 bikes at 80lbs each when attached to a motorhome. The rack will work with bikes that have a wheel base up to 60" long and tires up to 5" wide. This rack also hold the bikes in place by the frame like the Yakima.
The other option is the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack # LGA77FR. With this rack you can carry 2 bikes up to 75lbs each. It will fit bikes with a wheel base up to 50" long and a tire up to 4-1/2" wide. This rack supports the bikes by the wheels at 2 points per wheel. The rack also slides towards the rear allowing you access to storage and ladders if your Redhawk has one to access the roof.
