Best Cost-Effective Hitch Mount Bike Rack for Heavy E-Bikes with Front Fenders
Updated 06/06/2023 | Published 06/05/2023
Question:
Hi - I want to purchase a hitch rack for heavy bikes, ebikes. Because of odd frame shapes, I wanted a wheel mount rack, but it seems many will not work well with front fender, which I have. Maybe frame mount is better? Can you recommend a 2 bike rack for heavy bikes, with front fender in the $500 range? Thanks

The absolute best hitch mount bike rack for your scenario is the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR. This is a frame mounted bike rack that can hold up to 80 lb e-bikes with up to 5" wide tires so it fits the bill for the type and style of bikes you need to transport.
The extra features that I appreciate on this bike rack are the integrated bike and rack locks as well as the easy-to-use anti-rattle handle at the front end of the rack. This means the bike rack will have less wobble and the locks will give you some peace of mind when making pit stops on your journey.
Attached is a review video so you can see these features in action!
