Helpful Expert Reply:

It looks like most beach cruiser bikes have fenders and/or baskets, both of which would interfere with the way that the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2 Bike Platform Rack # SH12G attaches to the bike's wheel. You will want to go with a frame-mount bike rack; for this I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH903202. It attaches to the bike's frame, making it compatible with bikes that have fenders or baskets. The weight capacity is 65lbs per bike and this carrier is compatible with 1-1/4" and 2" receivers, so you won't have an issue using it on your Nissan Altima. Locks are included to deter theft of your bikes and bike carrier. I attached a short demonstration video for you.
