Bike Rack Recommendation for e-bikes on Travel Trailer
Question:
Will this bike rack for electric bikes work on a 2020 Nash 26N Travel Trailer. It currently has a 1.25 inch receiver

Expert Reply:
The Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 is a great bike rack for e-bikes but it unfortunately doesn't have the strength to handle the extra movement at the back of a travel trailer. Because of this you're going to need to install a different hitch receiver on your trailer, like the Curt # E-100 for a 4" x 4" bumper, and then use a bike rack that is a bit more rugged and can handle that movement.
For your application I recommend going with the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack # S94FR which is a bit more rugged and can handle up to 70 lb bikes. If your bikes have a step-thru frame you'll also need an adapter bar like part # 64005 so the hook has something to secure the bike by.
