Hitch and Platform Bike Rack Recommendation to Hold 60 lb eBikes on 2013 Nissan Juke
Question:
Do you have a 2 inch hitch for a 2013 Juke? Im looking for a platform bike carrier for 2 60lb ebikes. Looks like that needs a 2 inch hitch.

There is a way for you to carry a pair of 60 lb ebikes on your 2013 Nissan Juke, though there is not a 2 inch hitch available. Instead you can use the 1-1/4 inch Draw-Tite # 24867 if your Juke is AWD or 1-1/4 inch # 24892 if your Juke is FWD (please keep in mind there is no hitch available for the NISMO model of a '13 Nissan Juke).
You would then be able to use the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA12B, which fits in a 1-1/4 inch hitch and has a weight capacity of 60 lbs per bike. The carrier weighs 49 lbs so with a pair of 60 lb ebikes you would be under the 200 lb tongue weight capacity of either Draw-Tite hitch.
I've added links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at.
