Question:
Im towing jeep jku behind a rv... I have 2 e-bikes weighing 56 lbs each with fenders and want to put on a rack behind my jeep. I also plan to use a swing away to accommodate getting access to back of jeep...either a Yakima or Saris. Ive pretty much narrowed it down to the Saris MHS or Hollywood RV Rider. Which would you recommend for the ebike rack and swing away? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Between the Saris MHS Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # SAR73MR and the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY64FR I recommend going with the Hollywood Racks # HLY64FR.
Reason being is; Not only does this bike rack have a higher capacity than the Saris, it's also a bit lighter at 58-lbs compared to 60-lbs, and most importantly it is compatible with flat towed vehicles.
Additionally, if you're interested in completing your flat tow setup, you're also going to need:
-A set of tow bars # RM-676,
-A base plate kit # RM-521448-5,
-A braking system # RM-8700,
&
-A wiring harness # RM-154.
