Will The Benton Bike Rack B54VR Work With A Lectric X Peak Step Thru Bike
Updated 09/29/2025 | Published 05/06/2025
Question:
Will the Benton LittleShit bike rack work or my Lectric X Peak step thru E bike ? I think the wheelbase is at least 50 inches and quite heavy, but probably under 80 pounds without the battery.

Hello Mark, thanks for reaching out. The Benton Bike Rack # B54VR has an 80 lb weight capacity, so it can work with a Lectric X Peak step thru E bike as long as it weighs less than 80 lbs with the battery removed. Since it is a step thru frame and it has a front fender, you will likely need to use an adapter bar such as part # S57FR.
