Ebike carriers

[eightyeightkeys]

Awesome thread We just purchased 2 EBikes and need to find a way to carry them as well. They're 60lbs each so it'll need to be quite the hefty carrier.

Try Hollywood Racks. I have one for my Fat electric bike that weighs 70 lbs. and will hold 2 bikes. It mounts to a standard 2" hitch. Maybe there is a larger model.

Ah Hollywood Racks has a rack specially designed for RVs (of course its sold out):

Hollywood series 1600 can carry two heavy e-bikes on the RV and on the back of a flat towed vehicle. But there is not anything that can carry three.

A cargo carrier with bike hold downs will.

We’re probably pretty close to that when the mopeds are all gassed up but we’ve gone many, many miles without any problems. If we need to tow the Jeep we leave the bikes at home although we probably could put the carrier on the Jeep and bring everything.

We put our Rad mini’s in2 bins at put inside the Jeep Wrangler. Plenty of room and out of elements.

This is exactly what we’re considering . . . two Rad Mini’s in the back of the Jeep Wrangler toad. How do you like the Mini’s?

[Wandering Woods]

What size bins? Our Rad minis are scheduled to ship mid February.

Not good if you go through a dip in the road or a driveway that has a severe angle because your rack will scrape. Bike racks for Motor homes rise up to provide more distance for uneven surface

I dunno, the Rola carrier I use has a 2 inch rise and my receiver is 24 inches off the ground. It’s not impossible but it’d take a pretty steep dip to cause it to hit. And even then there’s a skid plate.

We have 2 RadMini ebikes and use Thule Apex Swing 4 bike carrier. The carrier itself weights 37.5 lb and can carry up to 4 bicycles with total weight capacity of 150 lb. Each ebike weights 67 lb. When we go on the trip I do remove the batteries (7 lb each) so I still have 30 lb to spare which allows me to put 2 more regular bikes on the bike rack for my boys. And yes, we need to use bike carrier bar for the RadMini step-thru ebike. We are using this setup for last 2 years and it works well for us.
I just learned about another interesting product by 1up. It looks like this carrier can handle up to 225 lb of weight or 3 ebikes.
