Question:
Hello, I am looking to purchase the Hollywood Rack Sport Rider SE for Electric Bikes Item # HR1450E. I have an EVELO Luna See attached photo Step-through Electric Bike which doesn’t have a cross bar in a suitable place for the top hook of the Sport Rider rack to hold the bike in place. Is there something that I could also purchase that would work to adapt my bike for the SE rack?

Expert Reply:
The perfect solution for you to carry your EVELO Luna with the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2-Bike Carrier for Electric Bicycles # HLY84FR would be to use an adapter bar which attaches between your seat post and handlebar stem to create a horizontal mounting point. You can see exactly what it does in the photo I've attached for you.
The bar you want is going to depend on the length between your seat post and handlebar stem; the Swagman Deluxe # 64005 is adjustable from 24 3/8" to 33 3/4".
I've added links to reviews of both bars for you to take a look at.

Check on the weight of an e-bike. Many are around 50lbs, or more. The EVELO Luna is 58lbs. Anyone buying the Swagman is overloading it. The Thule supports up to 50 lbs, so it would be overloaded as well.
