Recommendation of Bike Rack for Beach Cruisers with Fenders and 3 inch Wide Tires
Question:
Will this work with a 20inch beach cruiser with a small front fender? I also have a cruiser with 3 Inch wide tires, will the trays accomodate that as well.

Expert Reply:
The Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack, item # TH83JV, will accept up to 5 inch wide tires but, unless you have over 1 inch of clearance between the fender and the front tire on your cruiser with a fender, you will not be able to secure the bike safely.
Another option for both of your cruisers would be the 2 Bike Carrier for 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch Trailer Hitches - Wheel Mount, item # S64650, as long as the weight of each bike is not over 35 pounds. This rack will accept tires up to 3-1/2 inches wide and secures the bikes at the frame in the center of the bike rather than at the front wheel.

I’m trying to figure out what type of bike rack would attach on my Kia Soul and hold a cruiser bike?
