Bike Racks

Bike Racks.

E-bikes break the assumptions car racks were built on: most trunk racks max out around 35 lbs per bike, and a typical fat-tire e-bike is double that. These picks are hitch-mounted platforms with real e-bike weight ratings — check your per-bike limit before anything else.

EasyFold XT 2
