Carry 2 e-bikes on the back of your vehicle or RV with this heavy-duty, V-shaped rack. Adjustable cradles hold your bikes by the wheels. Platform slides out for access to your hatch or Sprinter RV van doors.Put the rack together with ease, attached to camper fine. Bikes fit great and were fairly easy to get on and off once we figured best way for them to ride. Will be traveling soon with them but rack and bikes seem very secure. Pics are on the back of fifth wheel trailer.
One of lower wheel cradles will not lock into place need to have this one cradle replaced please.
Over all I am happy with the bike rack it is sturdy well put together and easy to use. One exception the threaded pin for the 2" receiver on the truck, why is not a slip in pin instead it has spring nut?
Jenny N - 05/18/2022It’s early. Just put on and did a short drive to check my installl. Took 2.5 hrs to put together and load bikes. The bike loading took awhile and it’s a two person job with two 55lbs ebikes. Once set though it should go faster. The rack got here two days earlier than first advertised. Some of the pieces could/will be upgraded to better quality and the arms secured with non locking pins will be changed out to reduce the little wobble it has.
Unit is very sturdy. It takes about 2-3 hours to assemble. The slide mechanism use a wax film to achieve low-friction movement. This could be better executed with a linear ball slide design to reduce movement. Locking mechanism would be sufficient to secure in place. Part 'AA' Cradle Housing is delivered in left and right hand designs. This is not explained during Step 10 assembly. Sort parts before assemble to get four of each design. No specific instructions are presented to locate 'N' Base on 'M' Slide Tubes. A guide for clearance calculations would be helpful.
Purpose of this product is to transport two eBikes weighing 65 pounds each. Lifting bikes onto rack is a two person job. Setting the rack into hitch is a two person job. In other words, this thing is heavy, so be careful with your back. I added a EcoHitch class III receiver (Item # 306-X7326) on my Kia Soul rated for maximum tongue weight: 300 lbs. Given that the rack weighs 75 pounds and two eBikes weigh 130 pounds, this rack is certified to carry the weight, even over rough roads.
I flat tow the Kia with invested $4,000 in eBikes, so the assurance for this racks justifies my purchase.
I think it’s a great product and easy to use assemble.
You Always have what I need and it’s in my hands Fast!
