Saris Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Newmar Bay Star Motorhome- Video

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Saris MHS two bike rack, which is gonna be the two plus one base and the two duo trays and we'll see how it all fits here on our 2019 Newmar Bay Star motor home. The MHS is probably one of my favorite motor home bike racks because you still have that 80 pound weight capacity and you have that dual wheel mount design and it's motor home compatible, meaning it does, it is designed to have that extra strength and durability to handle the extra stress of being so far away from the rear axle. Now with a Bay Star motor home though, there are some unique things that you are gonna have to consider when carrying those extra heavy electric bikes. The main thing is it sits up very high up off the ground, so if you wanna take advantage of the 80 pound weight capacity that's also 80 pounds that you're lifting this high up. Another thing is that you do have a ladder behind your motor home and that may cause a little bit of fitment issues. For example, we we inchesre not able to tilt up this rack into the compact position, but behind a motor home it usually doesn't matter. more

Yakima OnRamp E-Bike Platform Rack with Ramp Review - 2018 Newmar Ventana Motorhome- Video

Hey everyone, it's Yvie Angeline here at etrailer, and today we have Yakima OnRamp two-bike rack for electric bikes, and we're gonna take a look at how it fits our 2018 Newmar Ventana motor home. For your Ventana motor home, it may be a little tricky to get bike racks on here because of the clearance. So because of where our hitch receiver is and how long the bike rack is, I actually was not able to put a bike on the inside. That's more because of the handlebars, though, if you had shorter handle bars, let's say for a road bike, you would probably be okay. But here's some measurements for you so that right off of the bat you'll be able to see how much clearance you have. So what we're gonna do is, we're going to measure from our bumper to the tray, and that's gonna be 12 inches, or one foot. more
