Question:
Two questions: 1 can this work for a bike with a front fender? And 2 is there a loading ramp that works with it? I am a 78 year old woman with a 50 pound electric bike, so lifting it onto a rack is very difficult for me.

Hello Jean, thanks for reaching out. The RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack # RKY10002 will not work on bikes with front fenders. The ratcheting hook much mount directly on the wheel. The fenders would get in the way of this and are not a secure attachment point.
Also, there is no ramp attachment for this rack.
That said, I do have a bike rack option I think you would be interested in. Take a look at the following:
- Thule Epos Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel or Frame Mount # TH99XE
This will work with heavy bikes and it works great for bikes with fenders. The arms can attach to the frame or the tire. Also, there is a ramp attachment, part # TH43VA. That will make loading much easier on you.
What kind of bikes do you have?
