Recommended Motorhome Rated E-Bike Rack to Clear a Spare Tire
Question:
I have 2 lectric xpremium bikes and a 2008 itasca navion winnebago view with a ladder and spare tire in back. Do you have a rack that can clear the spare tire and ladder for these bikes? Thank you

The best option for clearing your Winnebago's spare tire is going to be the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack item # LGA77FR. From the hitch pin hole to the closest part of the bike rack is 13" so you will want to verify this is enough room. The Let's Go Aero is going to have the most distance between the hitch pin hole and bike rack of motorhome rated bike racks.
This bike rack has a 75 lbs per bike capacity. It is recommended to remove the batteries from your Lectric X Premium E-bikes when transporting them. This is a wheel mounted bike rack which will work great with your Lectric's step-thru frames.
The Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack item # LGA77FR also works well with bikes that have fenders. While you may be able to wrap the rubber strap around the bike tire and fenders together, I recommend just feeding the strap under the fenders and wrapping it around the tire. Doing it this way may take a little longer but you won't risk damaging the fenders in any way.
I have linked a review video below so you can see this bike racks functions.
