Solution for Bike Rack for 90 Pound E-Bike
Question:
if this rack supports 60 pounds per bike will it support one 90 pound bike?

Expert Reply:
The weight capacity of the Kuat # KU84FR is per bike. Unfortunately, you cannot combine the two for a 120 lb capacity for a single bike. I'm assuming you have an e-bike with that kind of weight, so your best bet is to remove the battery. If it is a large capacity battery you might be able to use the Kuat if you cut it down to 60 lbs.
If not, I recommend the Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack # HLY66ZR. This is capable of holding a 70 lb bike and also includes a ramp for easy loading. If that still isn't enough capacity without the battery, we have the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR which can hold up to 80 lbs per bike. If you can't go below 90 lbs then the only option we have would be a motorcycle carrier # e56UR.
