Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount

by: Tom04/16/2022

THIS RACK SAVED OUR e-BIKES FROM GETTING STOLEN!
The would-be thieves cut the cable that I used to secure the bikes together but they couldn't release the locking hooks on the bike rack to be able to remove the bikes. The straps holding the wheels to the brackets were cut, but they really aren't necessary for holding the bikes on the rack anyway.
This rack is so simple to use and has performed flawlessly every time.
We've used it on quite a few trips, one of them was over 5800 miles in 3 weeks! 100% worth the price!1286695

Nice heavy duty bike rack. We have two Aventon sinch ebikes. 20 inch fat tire bikes. Fits on Toyota rav 4 very nicely. Rack was easy to assemble and is easy to use.1289662

We bought this rack to accommodate two Himiway e-bikes. E-bikes are heavier than regular bikes, so we needed a sturdy bike rack that could handle the added weight. This rack does not disappoint. It’s very well designed, very well constructed and very easy to use. I would definitely recommend it!1290923

Great bike rack , exactly what I was looking for to carry an e bike and a regular mountain bike behind my RV , the tightening feature on the hitch is simple but great , no rattle ! Easy to assemble and adjustments make it very easy for any bike , The locks for the hitch pin and bikes are a great addition . Well worth the money , Quality product .1284187

I was surprised with how soon the rack arrived after I ordered it. Odelia was very helpful in placing my order and followed up with a couple of emails.
The rack was packaged very nicely. Assembly was easy. My only nit was labeling of the front & back of the rack in the instructions was confusing. The back of the rack should be farthest from the vehicle and the front closest to the vehicle. Otherwise the assembly instructions were clear and assembly was smooth. I’m using this rack with a 41 pound e-bike.
I’ve driven it around the neighborhood and I can’t wait until the COVID emergency is over to take a road trip with my bike using the rack. 782129

It’s still great! And it’s easy to lock down the bike. One hint is to lock the arm that holds the frame do if you go over a bump, it doesn’t loosen up.

The rack was packaged very nicely so no shipping damage. Instructions to put together and install were easy to follow. Had it on my hitch and ready to go in about 30-45 minutes. Because this item was on back order for a while, Teresa J kept me informed of the status and was super helpful. Excellent customer service.
I have purchased other items from etrailer.com and have been 100% satisfied each time.1018593

This bike is excellent. Very stable, easy and quick to install. I feel that our 2 e-bikes are very safe on the back of our motorhome. We also on occasion hook up the rack to our SUV for a day trip. Works out great. I highly recommend.

Adam E was our salesman and he was extremely helpful. I explained to him the types of bicycles we had and that it needed to be mounted on a motor home and he directed me to this rack. The price was good and the rack arrived in less than a week. It is very sturdy. Haven't used it yet but would certainly deal with this company again. Our only concern is the full visibility of the tail lights and the license tag and may become worse once we put a cover on the bicycles but that has nothing to do with the rack.1301890

Thank you for your review. I have a solution for your license plate issue. You can purchase something like item # Y02713 which uses hook and loops to attach around a bike frame or bike rack. As for the taillights, you could use a light like item # 98174LED
LED Light Kit for Draw-Tite, Tow Ready, Pro Series, and Rola Railed Cargo Carriers
$56.15 with a bracket like item # BK70BB
Trailer Light Mounting Bracket for 6-1/2" Oval Trailer Lights, Steel - Black Powder Coat
$9.47 mounted on your bike rack.

The Rack is great for hauling my RadWagon and my wife's RadRunner Plus. This was one of the few racks available that couldhandle the size nd weight of the Radwagon. I was very glad to be able to take it along to the beach and am looking forwad to doin so again this summer. I did get the small wheel adapter to use with the Radrunner to protect the bike. I also use a frame adapter bar for more stabilty as both bikes are stepthru designs.
My only complaint is the the lock on the locking cable that was included with the rack no longer functions. When I insert the key it will not turn to lock the lock. Fortunately it stopped working while unlocked.1289513

Very functional e-bike rack. Bikes are held securely and the ability to lock them to the rack is great. We use it on our RV and the tilt feature allows the bikes to remain on the rack and tip out of the way of our rear slider.1312294

We recently purchase a set of ebikes which were too heavy for our bike rack. We found this one on ettailer and thought we would try it. It is very well built and works perfect for our new bikes. We installed it on the back of our motorhome and it works perfect. It has a mechanism to keep it tight in the receiver and came with a locking hitch pin which is keyed the same as the locking J bars on the rack and included security cable. It holds the bikes stable and securely. I would definitely buy this rack again.1289765

The Hollywood Sport Rider Rack is just what I needed to transport out 2 fat tire electric bikes. Nothing else was rated strong enough for close to 70 pounds per bike. eTrailer was great to deal with. Fair pricing and very fast shipping. I have had a chance now to use the rack a couple of times and it is rock solid! We are very happy with the product and with the service provided by the knowledgeable eTrailer staff. Highly recommended!1287103

I love this company. My bike rack was on back order. Only rack recommended for our heavy M2S Ebikes. Etrailer.com was upfront with me that I would have to wait a month. No other vendor had them in stock either, including Hollywood BR. They communicated with me, and as soon as my bike rack was ready to ship, I was notified and they sent it without a hitch (pun intended). The rack itself took me about 45 minutes to an hour to put together. I wish it was a little more set up out of the box. Instructions easy to follow, and wasn't a big deal. I recommend you have someone help you lift it on and off. It's pretty heavy and awkward to carry. My wife and I took it off and stored it no prob. We plan to try it this week, looks sturdy and well made.930974

This bike rack is awesome for fat tire heavy ebikes. Once you get a system down it is easy. The bikes are secure, but I a a couple of bungee cords for good measure. I had an issue with one of the tire straps ripping. I called and the shipped me out a new one under warranty. Second strap holding up fine.

Solid construction and great value at 1/2 the price of the competition. Perfect solution for bikes with fenders! Instructions are good and it's very helpful watching a [online] video first. Suggest sales literature highlight the need for an additional piece for clamping the rack to the missing the top tub on step-through bikes. A link to the part with a promotion discount would be helpful. The straps that go over the wheel have a rubber pad for protection that can easily come off or be lost.1289087

Exactly what I was looking for to transport our 2 e-bikes. The rack arrived quickly in excellent condition (good factory packaging) and was very easy to assemble. Appreciated the locks on the receiver tube, J hooks, and the included security cable, all using the same key.1312071

We have had this carrier for a year and have over a thousand miles with 2 ebikes attached. Absolutely no issues. Very satisfied and was easy to assemble. This carrier is heavy so use help attaching to your hitch.1291108

This product was on back order since January I finally got it, etrailer done an awesome job keeping me in the loop, great product, built well can't wait to use it, I have Rip Current S and Rad Runner 1, 75 and 65lbs1022601

great, still use it regularly, I even have 2 new ebikes, no problem fiiting, I have a Aventon Level Step-through and a DiamondBack Union I mount my bikes, rack is very secure Ihighly recommend for ebikes

Elwood - 04/27/2022

Just finished assembling the rack. Fantastic very heavy-duty. Can't give you 5 stars as it is not summer yet and can't put the rack on the coach or put the bikes in it yet. I am sure that will be as flawless as was the assembly.1018396

The fit and finish of all parts was excellent, the Owner's manual was well laid out and concise in it's instruction. Our two Lectric 2.0 bikes fit like it was made for them when we used the frame adapter bar (both bikes are step-thru).1296082

Great rack solid as a rock and beefy for those heavier ebikes. Very easy to use. Setting it up first time and getting the wheel holders just right took a bit of time, but now load, lock and go in less than 10 min. Only improvement would be including a detachable roll up ramp, so you don't have to lift the bikes as much.1226528

Bike rack is excellent so far. Relatively easy to setup. Great instructions and all tools needed were in the box. I love when the tools you need COME WITH the device. I don't why people assume everyone has tools in their home. Not everyone wants to have to go to the hardware store after their purchase! Anyway, great quality rack so far. I will update later after I load my bikes on it today for a ride!1300308

I am extremely pleased with not only how fast my rack arrived, but also the quality of this product I read through tons of reviews online and I’m sure glad that I did. I normally only buy Thule products for my vehicles, but after reading the reviews I decided to give it a shot. You cannot go wrong here. I am using it for (2) 75lb ebikes and am traveling from Georgia back to Calgary Alberta (36 hours) and they haven’t budged an inch. They also provide 3 different locking systems with one universal key!!1289968

Extremely heavy duty and easy to use. Only one that would hold the weight of our electric bikes...I looked at weight ratings of different racks and this one held the most.1287981

Easy to put together. No problem handling the bikes. Looking forward to travelling with the bikes. This rack is very well built with lots of features. I really like the no rattle function which really works, easy to tilt to access hatch,Great service from etrailer. Kept us updated on delivery and shipping. Website made assembly easy. Will certainly purchase from them again.1033035

This is my second Hollywood rack, I bought this to carry my new Ebikes. It was fairly easy to assemble, and it's definitely built well. I needed a bike rack that could handle 100 lbs, this rack is rated at 160 lbs.1276640
