Can a Hitch Extender Be Used With Thule EasyFold To Carry 51.6lb E-Bikes on 2020 Sprinter 3500
Question:
I want to use your hitch Extender to clear 12” deep spare tire on my Sprinter 3500. I want to use the Thule Easy Fold rack, 45lbs, with two 51.6lb Ebikes. Will this be within the max weight capacity when using an extender?

Expert Reply:
The Hitch Extender # HE06 reduces receiver capacity by 50%. To carry your 51.6lb e-bikes on the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 which weighs 45lbs your receiver must be able to support up to 296.4lbs since the bikes with carrier weigh 148.2lbs loaded. This should be well below the receivers weight capacity but you should verify this with your receiver manufacturer.
