Question:
Will this rack work with an e-bike with fenders and saddlebags? Im looking for a hitch rack that will work on my Kia Soul that has a class 1 hitch havent been able to find a hitch for the Kia thats rated higher. And trying to not spend $750 on the Thule rack. Grin. Thanks For your help

I do have an option for you but the Inno Tire Hold 1 Bike Platform Rack part # INH110 as with any wheel mount bike rack will not work on a bike with fenders. Instead, I recommend the Saris Freedom EX 2 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4412F which is just slightly more than the Inno Tire Hold 1 Bike Platform Rack, has a 60 lb per bike weight capacity, uses a unique frame clamp system that will work perfectly with your bike even though it has fenders/saddlebags, and best of all it is super lightweight (27 lbs) so it is easy to take on and off the vehicle. It is also class I rated.
I know you were hoping for a single bike rack but none of these fit the bill for your bike so a two bike rack is your only option.
