Yakima or Thule E-Bike Rack Comparisons
Question:
Hello! Which one would you recommend? Thule pro, Yakima stage 2 or Yakima On-ramp? Thank you. I have two ebikes

Expert Reply:
Of the racks you mentioned only the Yakima OnRamp part # Y36FR was designed specifically for e-bikes. The others could be used with e-bikes since they have the higher weight capacity but if the e-bikes have fenders they won't work well since they grab the bikes by the tire right where the fender normally is. So of the three I would recommend the OnRamp as the best overall choice.
For a similar Thule e-bike rack we have the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which is normally my favorite as it has a ramp that pulls out and is only option that fits Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches but the better price of the OnRamp would be the best value for a 2 inch hitch and my recommendation.
