Could E-Bike Be Carried on Malone Roof Bike Rack for Malone Roof Rack on Trailer
Updated 04/13/2020 | Published 04/12/2020
Question:
I currently have a Malone MicroSport trailer carrying 2 Kayaks and 2 bikes. The cross bars are 65inch long by 1.25inch X .75inch diameter and has a spread of 48. Each Kayak weighs 32lbs. I recently purchased 2 electric bikes each weighing 51lbs including battery which is detachable. If I upgraded the trailer to include 78inch Malone cross bars MPG 4001 and use the Malone Pilot TC ST aluminum bike rack for trailers w/65inch tray MPG 2100, would this be sufficient to carry the 2 electric bikes?

Expert Reply:
The weight capacity of the Malone roof bike rack part # MPG2100 that you referenced is 33 lbs. If the weight of your E-bikes is less than that with the battery removed this would work.
