E-Bike Rack Reccomendations
#1
Hey All,

My wife and I are looking for an e-bike rack carrier for our 2 Aventon Level.2's. I have been looking around and found out, much to my dismay that I cannot use a hitch mount rack on the back of my travel trailer as there is too much sway that would fatigue the metal. The carriers that go on the front of the trailers above the hitch would work, but the bikes at 62 #'s are heavy to lift. Does anyone else have this issue? How did you solve it?? Looking for suggestions.

Thank You

The Level.2's battery weighs 8lb. If you remove the battery first, the bike should be quite a bit easier to lift, though at 54lb sans battery, it still won't exactly be a flyweight.
