Question:

A couple of reviewers mention using this for e-bikes on an RV, however, your description indicates this item is NOT for use on RVs. So question is, can this be used on a travel trailer with rear hitch mount for two 62 lbs. e-bikes? Dont want to wait until March when the Swagman e-spec is back in stock.

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 you mention is not rated for trailers, motorhomes, or RVs. There was a time when there was some confusion around this question, but this has been cleared up.

Due to our stock, and your heavy bikes, your options are limited. Currently, we have the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # Y36FR that will work for your application. The only problem is, when this rack is used on the back of a motorhome or a trailer, the weight capacity per bike is reduced to 40lbs each.

Your best bet, is to wait for the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR to come back in stock, as this is the best option for you.
