Best Bike Rack Solution for Carrying Trek Allant and Trek Verve E-Bikes

Updated 01/06/2021 | Published 01/04/2021

Question:

Im planning to buy two e-bikes, a Trek Allant+ 7, and a Trek Verve+ 3 LOWSTEP. Since both bikes have integrated fenders and racks, a tire lock rack isnt going to work. Both bikes are about 50lbs with battery removed. What rack would you recommend? Would the Hollywood HR1000Z Sports Rider be the best choice? 2 receiver. Will use on Mazda CX9 and Chevy Avalanche pickup. I would need HRBA-PRO adapter bar for lowstep bike.

For e-bikes like yours with fenders, low frame tubes, and heavier weights the best option is the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which was specifically designed for bikes like this. It even has ramps built into the rack to make loading and unloading easier as well.

Check out the review video link I attached for more info too.

There would be no need for a bike frame adapter either.
