Recommended Bike Rack for a Pedego City Commuter E-Bike w/ Fenders

Published 11/23/2022

Question:

I just bought a Pedego City Commuter E-Bike. The bike has front and rear fenders. Would the Thule XT work because of the fenders ? or what brand/model would you recommend ? Thanks

The Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes item # TH903202 would be a great bike rack for your Pedego City Commuter E-Bike. Depending on which model you have it looks like your bike weighs around 56 lbs and has a 44-1/2 - 47" wheel base. The XT was specifically designed for heavier e-bikes with fenders like yours and fits wheel bases up to 51".

The EasyFold fits both a 1-1/4" and 2" hitch. It has a 65 lbs per bike capacity per bike. The independently detachable arms can be repositioned anywhere along the upright frame. It uses frame clamps that are designed to fit the typically unusual frame styles of e-bikes.

Aside from being compatible with your bike, the EasyFold XT item # TH903202 is a great choice due to the available features. The included ramp allows you to load up and remove your bikes with minimal effort and the ramp conveniently stores within the rack so you don't have to worry about storage. The EasyFold also completely folds up and has wheels and a handle for transportation. Attaching the rack to your hitch is also easy as it tightens with a simple twist of a knob.

I have linked a couple of review videos below that will show you the EasyFold XT in action. I have also attached a picture so you can see what the rack looks like in use.
