Question:
Does the Yakima Full Back 2 bike rack Trunk Mount fit the Nissan Leaf 2019.? What about the EcoHitch? We want to buy the car but get conflicting answers on how we can carry 2 bikes. One is an e bike: 50 pounds without the battery a mountain bike:30 pounds

Expert Reply:
The Yakima Fullback Truck Rack part # Y02634 does fit your 2019 Nissan Leaf but since you plan to carry a heavier e-bike this would not be the rack solution for you since it doesn't have the needed weight capacity. You'd need a hitch installed like the EcoHitch part # 306-X7221 you referenced so that you can carry a hitch mounted e-bike rack like the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which is designed specifically for your application. It has the needed weight capacity and also comes with ramps to make loading the heavier bikes easier. Check out the review video I attached for more info on that as well.

I have a 2019 Leaf too. I have two hybrids bikes not electric. Would the Yakima HalfBack 2Bike Rack work safely? Thanks
