Recommended 4 Bike Platform Bike Rack for Adult and Child Bikes

Question:

Hello, I am looking for a carrier that can carrier kids and adults bikes. I came across the Saris Freedom Racks. What is the difference between the SA4414B and the SA4414B-FB? Is there any others that you would suggest? thank you

The Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # SA4414B fits a 2" receiver and has a 60 lbs capacity per bike on the inner two holders and a 35 lbs capacity per bike on the outer two holders. The wheel mounts can slide the length of the frame to accommodate wheel bases up to 48" wide. The rubber cradles will adjust up and down to secure any size bike by the frame.

If any of your bikes have fat tires you will need the Fat Tire Adapter Kit for Saris Freedom Bike Racks item # SA4419. This adapter works with tires up to 5" wide.

The Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 4 Fat Bikes item # SA4414B-FB you referenced is the same bike rack except it includes four fat tire wheel holders item # SA4419.

Unless all of your bikes have fat tires I recommend the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # SA4414B. This is our best option for your different styles of bikes.
