Question:

I am having a Curt hitch installed on my 2019 Mercedes GLC 300 by your vendor, Ricks Trailer Supply in San Clemente, CA. I am looking for the best bike rack for a Raleigh Retroglide and a Haibike Sduro. Both are ebikes with fenders. Do you stock an appropriate product?

Helpful Expert Reply:

It sounds like you're adding the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13290 to your 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300. For the best bike rack that fits a 2" hitch and can hold your electric bikes I recommend the Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # TH903202.

This heavy-duty e-bike rack has a ramp that lets you load your bikes with no lifting required. It has a weight capacity of 65 lbs per bike with a maximum tire width of 3". If you have larger tires, the Fat Bike Straps for Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack - Qty 2 # TH985101 increases the maximum tire width to 4-11/16".

The maximum wheelbase is 51-3/16" with a maximum bike tube diameter of 3-1/8". From what I found about your Raleigh Retroglide and Haibike Sduro they are both under 65 lbs and will fit. I recommend verifying this information first.

I have attached some review videos for your reference.
