Recommended Bike Rack For Ride1UP 700 Series eBike With Step-Thru Frame For Easy Loading

Question:

Just bought my wife a ride1up 700 series ST ebike. What rack would you recommend for easy loading and yet still accommodate the ST style frame?

So for your wife's Ride1UP 700 Series eBike with a step-thru frame, the bike rack I like the most, that will also accommodate all the specs of her bike, is from Hollywood Racks, and is their Destination rack for ebikes:

- Hollywood Racks Destination eBike Rack # HLY66ZR

The Destination # HLY66ZR comes with a nearly 4 foot ramp which makes it simple to load a heavy electric bike, and uses padded clamps that accommodate the step-thru frame. The clamps are adjustable and will secure the bike by its seat post, which is why a step-thru frame is not an issue for it. The rack also has a 70 lb per-bike capacity, which is enough for the 62 lb Ride1UP 700 Series, and every other spec of the bike - tire width, wheelbase, wheel diameter - meets the requirements to fit the Destination perfectly.

Apart from just working with the Ride1UP 700 Series, the Destination # HLY66ZR is just a high-quality bike rack that is simple to use, tightening in your hitch with the turn of a handle at the front of the rack, while also giving you security for the rack and bikes with its included hitch lock and frame locks.
