Specs:
The Sport Rider SE platform-style hitch bike rack makes it simple to carry 2 electric bikes on the rear of your vehicle. It features locking frame hooks and heavy-duty wheel holders with welded gussets to reinforce the rack so it can handle the extra weight. An anti-rattle system tightens the rack's shank to your hitch receiver to prevent it from rattling around inside the tube.
Locking, Ratcheting Hooks
The Sport Rider SE uses locking frame hooks to secure your bikes. The ratcheting, cushioned hooks easily adjust along the vertical mast and lock securely in place. The release buttons allow each hook to slide up the ratcheting arm for bike removal. The hooks function independently, which means you can position them to carry bikes of different heights.
Adjustable Wheel Hoops
The wheel hoops accommodate bicycles with wheelbases up to 60" by sliding along the horizontal arms. They secure in place with easy-to-use hand knobs, and ratchet straps fasten the wheels to the hoops. These universal wheel hoops will fit standard and fat tires up to 5" wide.
Folding, Tilting Design
The rack tilts, with or without bikes loaded, for easy access to your vehicle's rear cargo area. Simply remove the pivot pin, pull the bottom quick-release spring pin, and lower the rack.
The rack also folds up against the back of your vehicle when it's not in use. To raise the rack, just pull the upper quick-release spring pin and lift.
Tool-Free Installation with Anti-Rattle System
The rack installs in your hitch without the need for tools. Simply slide the shank into your receiver until the welded stop plate contacts the hitch. The stop plate saves you from getting on your hands and knees to align the pin holes while inserting the hitch pin. Once the pin is in place, attach the lock pod. Lastly, use the integrated anti-wobble handle on the front of the shank to tighten the rack inside your hitch receiver and prevent it from rattling.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The lock cores in the frame hooks hold the bike down on the rack and prevent them from moving. Also, the lock pod attaches to the hitch pin to secure the rack to your vehicle. These locks are conveniently keyed alike. For extra protection, the 8' long security cable wraps through the bike frames, connects to the hitch pin, and is secured to the pin by the hitch lock.

Wheel hoops adjust for different wheelbases. Anti-rattle system reduces wobble and sway.THIS RACK SAVED OUR e-BIKES FROM GETTING STOLEN! The would-be thieves cut the cable that I used to secure the bikes together but they couldn't release the locking hooks on the bike rack to be able to remove the bikes. The straps holding the wheels to the brackets were cut, but they really aren't necessary for holding the bikes on the rack anyway. This rack is so simple to use and has performed flawlessly every time. We've used it on quite a few trips, one of them was over 5800 miles in 3 weeks! 100% worth the price!
Great bike rack , exactly what I was looking for to carry an e bike and a regular mountain bike behind my RV , the tightening feature on the hitch is simple but great , no rattle ! Easy to assemble and adjustments make it very easy for any bike , The locks for the hitch pin and bikes are a great addition . Well worth the money , Quality product .
I was surprised with how soon the rack arrived after I ordered it. Odelia was very helpful in placing my order and followed up with a couple of emails. The rack was packaged very nicely. Assembly was easy. My only nit was labeling of the front & back of the rack in the instructions was confusing. The back of the rack should be farthest from the vehicle and the front closest to the vehicle. Otherwise the assembly instructions were clear and assembly was smooth. I’m using this rack with a 41 pound e-bike. I’ve driven it around the neighborhood and I can’t wait until the COVID emergency is over to take a road trip with my bike using the rack.
Nice heavy duty bike rack. We have two Aventon sinch ebikes. 20 inch fat tire bikes. Fits on Toyota rav 4 very nicely. Rack was easy to assemble and is easy to use.
The rack was packaged very nicely so no shipping damage. Instructions to put together and install were easy to follow. Had it on my hitch and ready to go in about 30-45 minutes. Because this item was on back order for a while, Teresa J kept me informed of the status and was super helpful. Excellent customer service. I have purchased other items from etrailer.com and have been 100% satisfied each time.
The Rack is great for hauling my RadWagon and my wife's RadRunner Plus. This was one of the few racks available that couldhandle the size nd weight of the Radwagon. I was very glad to be able to take it along to the beach and am looking forwad to doin so again this summer. I did get the small wheel adapter to use with the Radrunner to protect the bike. I also use a frame adapter bar for more stabilty as both bikes are stepthru designs. My only complaint is the the lock on the locking cable that was included with the rack no longer functions. When I insert the key it will not turn to lock the lock. Fortunately it stopped working while unlocked.
We recently purchase a set of ebikes which were too heavy for our bike rack. We found this one on ettailer and thought we would try it. It is very well built and works perfect for our new bikes. We installed it on the back of our motorhome and it works perfect. It has a mechanism to keep it tight in the receiver and came with a locking hitch pin which is keyed the same as the locking J bars on the rack and included security cable. It holds the bikes stable and securely. I would definitely buy this rack again.
The Hollywood Sport Rider Rack is just what I needed to transport out 2 fat tire electric bikes. Nothing else was rated strong enough for close to 70 pounds per bike. eTrailer was great to deal with. Fair pricing and very fast shipping. I have had a chance now to use the rack a couple of times and it is rock solid! We are very happy with the product and with the service provided by the knowledgeable eTrailer staff. Highly recommended!
I love this company. My bike rack was on back order. Only rack recommended for our heavy M2S Ebikes. Etrailer.com was upfront with me that I would have to wait a month. No other vendor had them in stock either, including Hollywood BR. They communicated with me, and as soon as my bike rack was ready to ship, I was notified and they sent it without a hitch (pun intended). The rack itself took me about 45 minutes to an hour to put together. I wish it was a little more set up out of the box. Instructions easy to follow, and wasn't a big deal. I recommend you have someone help you lift it on and off. It's pretty heavy and awkward to carry. My wife and I took it off and stored it no prob. We plan to try it this week, looks sturdy and well made.
Solid construction and great value at 1/2 the price of the competition. Perfect solution for bikes with fenders! Instructions are good and it's very helpful watching a [online] video first. Suggest sales literature highlight the need for an additional piece for clamping the rack to the missing the top tub on step-through bikes. A link to the part with a promotion discount would be helpful. The straps that go over the wheel have a rubber pad for protection that can easily come off or be lost.
We have had this carrier for a year and have over a thousand miles with 2 ebikes attached. Absolutely no issues. Very satisfied and was easy to assemble. This carrier is heavy so use help attaching to your hitch.
This product was on back order since January I finally got it, etrailer done an awesome job keeping me in the loop, great product, built well can't wait to use it, I have Rip Current S and Rad Runner 1, 75 and 65lbs
Just finished assembling the rack. Fantastic very heavy-duty. Can't give you 5 stars as it is not summer yet and can't put the rack on the coach or put the bikes in it yet. I am sure that will be as flawless as was the assembly.
Adam E was our salesman and he was extremely helpful. I explained to him the types of bicycles we had and that it needed to be mounted on a motor home and he directed me to this rack. The price was good and the rack arrived in less than a week. It is very sturdy. Haven't used it yet but would certainly deal with this company again. Our only concern is the full visibility of the tail lights and the license tag and may become worse once we put a cover on the bicycles but that has nothing to do with the rack.
The fit and finish of all parts was excellent, the Owner's manual was well laid out and concise in it's instruction. Our two Lectric 2.0 bikes fit like it was made for them when we used the frame adapter bar (both bikes are step-thru).
I am extremely pleased with not only how fast my rack arrived, but also the quality of this product I read through tons of reviews online and I’m sure glad that I did. I normally only buy Thule products for my vehicles, but after reading the reviews I decided to give it a shot. You cannot go wrong here. I am using it for (2) 75lb ebikes and am traveling from Georgia back to Calgary Alberta (36 hours) and they haven’t budged an inch. They also provide 3 different locking systems with one universal key!!
Great rack solid as a rock and beefy for those heavier ebikes. Very easy to use. Setting it up first time and getting the wheel holders just right took a bit of time, but now load, lock and go in less than 10 min. Only improvement would be including a detachable roll up ramp, so you don't have to lift the bikes as much.
Extremely heavy duty and easy to use. Only one that would hold the weight of our electric bikes...I looked at weight ratings of different racks and this one held the most.
This is my second Hollywood rack, I bought this to carry my new Ebikes. It was fairly easy to assemble, and it's definitely built well. I needed a bike rack that could handle 100 lbs, this rack is rated at 160 lbs.
We carry two e-bikes, a fat bike and a touring bike on this rack behind our RV and it is is a very sold and reliable rack. I have had many bike racks over the years and if you are hauling heavy/expensive bikes you can’t go wrong with this one. Easy to use and assemble
A great bike rack!!! It's heavy and well made. I needed a bike rack that can securely hold two heavy 20-inch fat tire ebikes. I need a peace of mind when driving down the road that the bike rack won't break off and cause an accident, or worst, hurt somebody. It also had to be rated for mounting on an RV. Some bike racks are prohibited for use on a RV. I found several bike racks with a maximum carrying capacity of 60 lbs. per bike. This Hollywood hitch-mounted bike rack can hold two ebikes up to 80 pounds each. Also, it's important to eliminate any excess movement of the bike rack when mounted. This bike rack has a built-in hitch tightening system that stops rattle and excess movement. No need to purchase a separate hitch tightener. Thank you Hollywood!!!
Easy to put together. No problem handling the bikes. Looking forward to travelling with the bikes. This rack is very well built with lots of features. I really like the no rattle function which really works, easy to tilt to access hatch,Great service from etrailer. Kept us updated on delivery and shipping. Website made assembly easy. Will certainly purchase from them again.
I'm super pleased with this e-bike rack. I carry two Lectric e-bikes (70 lbs. each) on the back of my motor home and I've crisscrossed the country several times with no problems from the bike rack. I would suggest though adding some padding to go between the top locking bar and the bike to prevent rubbing/abrasion to the bike frame.
Bike rack is excellent so far. Relatively easy to setup. Great instructions and all tools needed were in the box. I love when the tools you need COME WITH the device. I don't why people assume everyone has tools in their home. Not everyone wants to have to go to the hardware store after their purchase! Anyway, great quality rack so far. I will update later after I load my bikes on it today for a ride!
I plan to use the rack in a few months for a step through electric bike so I can't comment on the rack itself yet. The etrailer.com personnel were very helpful over the phone for ordering this item. I received it in 2 days. Great customer service.
