Question:

I am looking for an ebike rack and see Item # S94FR. I have 2 ebikes, each about 50-60 lbs. They have to mount to the back of my travel trailer and not sway. Do I need to attach something to my frame. My bumper is welded to the frame.

Expert Reply:

The Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # S94FR has a 70lb per bike capacity when mounted to an RV, like your travel trailer. You would need to reach out to the manufacturer of the trailer to determine the weight capacity of the bumper to ensure it can handle the weight of the bikes and rack. If it can then you can use the Curt RV Bumper Mounted Hitch # C19101.

If not, then you'll to install an adjustable mount trailer hitch receiver. To find the correct size you'll measure the distance between the frame rails of the trailer. For example, the Curt # C13702 can fit trailer frame widths of 18" - 51". If you need help finding the correct hitch then let me know what you find when measuring the frame width.

The # S94FR comes with an anti-rattle hitch pin so you'd be able to tighten the rack into the receiver tube of the hitch to prevent it from rattling around.
