Bike Rack For Mokwheel Basault ST Ebike

Question:

Regarding: Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack for Ram ProMaster Rear Door I have an e-bike that weighs 69 pounds with the battery removed. Will this bike rack work for one bike loaded without the battery, ie. 69 lbs total? I would not add any additional bike or weight onto the rack. The bike is a Mokwheel Basault ST Thanks

There are bike racks you can use with your Mokwheel Basault ST Ebike, but the Thule Elite Van XT rack has a 42 lb per-bike weight capacity, so it won't be an option. What you'll need is a hitch-mounted bike rack, and because you're removing the battery and it weighs 69 lbs, the best option is from Hollywood Racks:

- Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack # HLY66ZR

The # HLY66ZR has a 70 lb per-bike capacity, and it is perfect for your Mokwheel because it uses clamps to grasp your bike by the tubes, which is important because you bike has fenders and is a step-thru frame. It is compatible with tires up to 4-1/2" wide, so it will also work with your Mokwheel's tires, as well as a ramp to make loading up your heavy ebike much simpler.
