Question:
Do you sell a bike rack that can hold two 60lb e-bikes? I want something that doesnt wiggle around and provide the ability to swing it out of the way to open the tail gate on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler?

Expert Reply:
The best bike rack for your two 60 lbs e-bikes is going to be the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes item # HLY84FR. This bike rack has the capacity to carry two e-bikes weighing up to 80 lbs with a maximum tire width of 5". It features locking frame hooks and heavy-duty wheel holders with welded gussets to reinforce the rack so it can handle the extra weight. It also has a anti-rattle system that reduces wobble and sway. The Sport Rider SE Bike Rack weighs 54 lbs.
To swing out of the way so you can open the tail gate of your 2015 Jeep Wrangler you will need the Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks item # Y02483. The BackSwing is capable of supporting up to 250lbs of rack and bike weight. I have linked a diagram I made that shows the dimensions of this adapter.
