I may be able to provide you with some options to carry your bike and trike, but I will need some more information from you. I need the make and models of your bike and trike. Most importantly, I need the weights of your e-bike and trike and the wheelbase of your trike and its length.

The Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack, part # S80600, you attached to your question will not work for this application. Each of your bikes will weigh more than 30 lbs.

I have a solution for you. It will require you to tow a trailer behind your motorhome. We do not have a hitch bike rack or hitch bike rack w/ cargo carrier solution for your e-bike and e-trike. However, I do think I have a solution for you. It will not require you carry one of your bikes inside your motorhome, nor will it require you to lift heavy e-bikes. You will need the Detail K2 Mighty Multi A-Frame Utility Trailer - 7-1/2' Long - 1,640 lbs, part # K2MMT5X7. This trailer weighs 451 lbs. It comes with pre-wired with a 4-way flat connector. Once you have this trailer installed you need the Inno Velo Gripper Bike Rack for Truck Beds - Clamp On, part # INRT201, for your SoHoo S115. This bike rack will clamp your seat post and your front fork. You will not have to worry about your frame getting clamped or your fenders getting damaged by your rack. You will also need a ball mount and a 2" hitch ball to complete this setup. The trailer measures 16" from the ground to the coupler. You will need to measure from the ground to the top of the inside of your trailer hitch. If your motorhome is taller, you need a drop of the difference between the two measurements in your ball mount. If the trailer is taller, the opposite holds true. You need a ball mount with a rise of the difference. I also recommend bungees to keep your bikes from moving. I have included product description links, a video link of the Inno Velo Gripper being installed, a video review, and weblinks of our ball mounts and 2" trailer hitch balls below.

Hey Doug, for your Ventadome V3094 the vent cover you would want would be the MaxxAir part #MA00-933069 which is a universal style vent cover. We don't have anything that is custom fit for the Ventadome at this time.

Hi Sue, I don't recommend using the etrailer High-Low Adjustable Adapter part #e52ZV to lower your bike rack. Using an adapter decreases the tongue weight of your trailer hitch by up to 50%. The typical e bike can weight anywhere from 50-80lbs…
