Question:
Is there a weight limit for this rack? I have two ebikes. Or is there another system you would recommend to haul two bikes? Thank you, Randy

Hello Randy,
The Saris Traps Fork-Block 3 Bike Rack - Single Track - 47" Long - 9-mm Skewer # SATRK14-BLK3 has a weight limit of 35 pounds per bike.
For e-bikes, I recommend going with a hitch mounted carrier. The Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # HLY64FR is a great option. It secures to the frame of the bike, so if your e-bikes have fenders, they won’t be in the way. This rack can handle up to 80 pounds per bike.
What kind of e-bikes do you have?
