Question:
DOES THE e34AR HITCH WORK WITH A VERTICAL BIKE HANGING RACK ON A 24 FORD EDGE?
asked by: Tyler G
Expert Reply:
Hey Tyler. The etrailer Hitch item # e34AR can not be used with a vertical bike rack but I have one that can be.
To mount a vertical bike rack on your 2024 Ford Edge, you'll want the Blue Ox Hitch item # BLU85UR. This custom fit class III hitch has a 2" receiver and a 675 lbs tongue weight capacity. Blue Ox states that so long as you don't exceed the tongue weight capacity you can use a vertical bike rack with their hitches.
Please note that the hitch pin hole on the Blue Ox item # BLU85UR sits 5" behind the outside edge of the rear bumper when installed on a 2024 Ford Edge. This is important for determining clearance and ensuring you have enough room without the bike and bike racks contacting the rear of your SUV.
What vertical bike rack are you planning on using?
