Question:

I think the specs indicate that this rack would work for the wheel base approx. 47 inches and the wheel size approx. 27 inches of our Electra Amsterdam mens and womens 3-speed bikes I think they are the Classic 3i bikes, but I dont know about using this rack with bikes that have front fenders. What is your take on this? Thanks!

Expert Reply:

The Kuat NV 2.0 part # NV22G-NA22G is a really great bike rack but it isn't ideal for bikes with fenders like your Electra Amsterdam bikes since the fenders would interfere with the arms that grab the wheels. So your best option is a platform bike rack that grabs the bikes by the top tube of the bike frame like the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 4 Bike Platform Rack # HR1400Z-FB.

Hollywood Racks bike racks are made to be very solid and last a very long time. They are also stable in the hitch of the vehicle too like what you can see in the test course video I attached. I also attached a review video for this rack for you to check out too.
