Question:
I have a Winnebago Navion 24V, I am looking for an electric bike rack, that can handle a minimum of 2 bikes , 60 lbs each with fenders. As well, I would prefer ramps due to weight and lastly, I would like it expandable up to 4 bikes, if periodically we travel with more family members. Similar to the Thule T2 Pro XT, but I understand this does not work well if your bikes have fenders? Look forward to your feedback.

Hi Mark,
So I scoured every bike rack option, and unfortunately one with the exact configuration doesn't exist, for a couple reasons. The issue is being rated for an RV, weight capacity for ebikes, and especially the fenders, as the Thule rack you mentioned is wheel-mounted so won't work with fenders. If you're okay going with a 2-bike rack, there isn't an option for one with a ramp, but there is one with an electric lift if your Winnebago has a 7-way, the Saris Door County Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # SAR42RR.
The # SAR42RR will plug into your 7-way and with the press of a button on its mast it lowers 10-1/2 inches to make loading your bikes much easier. It has a 60 lb capacity so it meets the weight rating you need, and grasps your bikes by the frame so it works with your bikes that have fenders.
If you don't have a 7-way then you'll need a traditional rack that has frame hooks, the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR.
This is a simple, no-nonsense, strong rack that our customers really like. It is highly rated because it just gets the job done providing everything needed to carry heavy bikes. It has an 80 lb per-bike capacity, large wheel hoops to make putting your bikes in easier, and tightens in the hitch with the twist of a handle so no tools are needed.

Kyle , Thank you for the very informative response. Regarding the Hollywood Sports Rider Rack. It’s rated for 80 lbs with 2 bikes . What happens to weight capacity if you add expansion option and now carry 4 e-bikes ?
