    Tricycle hitch track

    Tractor Supply has an aluminum rack w/ramp that attaches to your trailer hitch. So no extra equipment needed. It sells for about $175.00. Check the width of the back tires e-bikes are 28” to make sure yours will fit within the bed.

    Hundreds of E bike companies??????

    I was reading about e-bike conversion kits and saw a way to resurrect the old Specialized Hard Rock that's collecting dust in my garage. It's a 35 lbs. bike (with front and rear racks and full water bottles) and is built like a tank. I used it for recreational riding and long-distance touring...

    Rear tray

    If I were to use one, and I won't! I would use the kind that has a receiver at both frame rails. Although it is more trouble to deal with I pull a harbor freight tools trailer behind my fifth. I still haul very little weight, but failure of a tray can kill those unfortunate enough to be...

    Bike rack options?

    I have a good stout hanging 4 bike rack but I’m a bit concerned about the weight of these. Mine is now up to 60.4lbs. My wife's is probably around 56.

    Bicycle Storage

    Here's my setup. Not sure how it would work with a rear radiator. It would be better if it was made to shift away allowing to check fluids, etc. My Thule 2 bike rack locks the bikes and a threaded bolt with lock on it's end secures the rack.

    Bumper Stability

    Well as I view things, the 200 lbs are not the only thing to consider. Most bike racks I've seen while attached to the bumper actually place a moment of arm aft of the bumper. So there is the twisting moment to be considered. If the weight is 200 lbs and the moment applied is 12" aft of the...

    Question Bike Rack Recommendation

    I have 2 folding fat tire ebikes and no longer wanted to put them inside my suv. I wanted a bike rack setup where I could easily move the bike rack from the suv to the rig while on the road and when we know we’re not going to use the bikes for a few days. I decided on the heavy duty Thule...

    Alert WARNING: Using a bike cover while on a bike rack while driving can KILL someone

    I'm glad I just stumbled on this post. I just ordered a bike rack and will be carrying three light weight road bikes on it. I went back and forth trying to decide whether to cover them or not and finally decided not to just thinking of what could happen, and you just solidified it for me not to...

    Electric Bike Rack

    Do you have a receiver hitch ? If so, you might check out the Harbor Freight Motorcycle rack and use a 20% off coupon. Good is you only have one bike😉

    Bumper Stability

    I have a 2020 Freedom Express Ultralite 196RBS. I want to mount a bike rack (two bikes) on the 4x4 bumper. I understand the standard stock bumper is not constructed to handle anything being mounted on it. So I am planning to purchase a stronger bumper and having it installed along with extra...

    Hundreds of E bike companies??????

    Thanks for the reply. That would have been a good option however, I gave our aluminum Trec bikes to our son a couple of years ago. I’m starting with blank sheet. Appreciate it.

    Bike Rack Search Finding

    We use a 1-up rack for our bikes. Rated for behind RV or Toad, etc. Also weight rated for E-bikes. They have a bunch of models with different weight ratings or fat tires etc.

    Freedom Express 192RBS Bumper Weight Limit

    OK. A couple of things. One of the concerns is tong weight. Add 150 to the back will change the tong weight considerably. If you do this for bikes the wind pattern won't change much but other items may. It will be important to verify tong weight and make sure 10% of trailer weight is still on...

    RVing with E-Bikes

    Nice work, make sure they are locked up as if that bike rack was Fort Knox! Consider a 2-channel (forward/rear) dashcam in your toad so you can also have dashcam monitoring of the bikes. I have one in my toad. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09FSDHCVS/?tag=rvf01-20

    National And State Parks

    From everything I've read the front axle of a class A is usually the one that is over loaded and at max capacity, mostly due to the weight of the generator.. If that's true then I think hanging another 300-400 lbs off the front bumper might be the last thing you'd want to do. And remember the...

    FYI Tow bar sway - quiet hitch

    When I was at Dan's Hitch (Elkhart, IN) a week ago I mentioned how my bike rack has a twist knob that minimizes the movement of the bike rack in the hitch. I noticed that the 2 inch tow bar going into my coach has play in it and wondered how to mitigate that. They mentioned some cuff but as the...

    Bike rack options?

    I looked at that one, but my 2 bikes combined were over the capacity limit. But thank you, @widdershins !

    Bike rack options?

    I use a receiver-type rack that came with my old D250 Dodge. It's not pretty but it works great. The truck has 2" receivers front and rear, so if I'm towing the bikes go up front. The rack is built out of heavy gauge steel with good welds so I don't worry about it breaking. Up until now it's...

    Question Will This Setup Work?

    It’s not even legal to tow two trailers in some states. I won’t do it, but I’ll certainly put a bike rack on the back of the trailer if needed.
