Recommended Bike Rack For Two REI Co Op Gen e1.2 Bikes
Question:
I received a REI Coop Gen e1.2 as a gift. I have a 2 inch hitch. The bike weighs 53 lbs. It is a step thru. Wheels are 20 inches. It has both a metal front and rear rack. Tires are 2.4 inches wide. Because of the racks and configuration of the frame, Im trying to find a bike rack that will accomodate this bike. I will be putting two of these bikes on the rack. Can you tell me if this bike rack would be suitable, if not any recommendations? Thanks,

Helpful Expert Reply:
Based on the specs of the bike the Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY66ZR would be a good option as long as you also use a frame adapter # HRBA-PRO so that the padded clamps have something to grab onto. This rack has a per bike capacity of 70lbs, wheel diameter range of 20" - 29", and maximum tire width of 4.5". The adapter will connect around the seat post and handlebar post to give the clamps a solid base to grip. With the wheel cradles using straps you won't have any issues with the front and rear racks either. This rack also comes with a locking hitch pin to help prevent theft.
I've attached a short video below where AJ will give you a closer look at the rack.
