Solution for Bike Rack for Finn Cycle With 6-1/2" Wide Rear Tire
Question:
Can this: Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2 Hitches - Wheel Mount - Matte Black Fit this? Finn Cycle Size: 72L x 28W x 42H Front Tire: 20 X 4 20 PSI Rear Tire: 16 X 6.5 28 PSI. The rear tire is the trick at 6.5. I'm thinking longer straps will work? If not I need another rack that will fit.

Expert Reply:
The fat tire straps for the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B can only accommodate tires up to 5" so the 6-1/2" tires won't work with this bike rack. Since none of the bike racks are going to be able to fit those tires, I recommend the etrailer Aluminum Motorcycle Carrier for 2" Hitches # e56UR. It won't be as convenient as a bike rack since you will have to use ratchet straps to secure it but as far as I know it is the only option outside of a trailer to transport your Finn Cycle.
