Question:
Do you sell trailers? I need to buy a light trailer for my cmax hybrid so that I can pull my ebike. The hitchmount rack sticks out too far with adapter and is too heavy, especially with the ebike on it.

Hey Michelle! For a light trailer, I recommend the Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer item # Y08107. It has a 250 lbs weight capacity, measures 6-1/2' wide x 11' long x 22" tall, and attaches to a 2" hitch ball. It comes with two round crossbars that you can attach most bike racks, watersport racks, and cargo baskets.
Our highest capacity bike rack that would mount to the Yakima item # Y08107 is the Inno Tire Hold II Roof Bike Rack item # INA389. It has a 50 lbs capacity.

Hi Jerred, Thanks for your speedy reply ?? My bike is 77 lbs and bike rack is 48 pounds and I guess the 2" to 1.25 adapter is about 10. Since the whole shebang is sticking about 2 feet out from the receiver, I have to multiply that tongue weight by some factor. The worry is how much this exceeds the capacity of my Cmax car frame that it's bolted to. Thanks.
