Hollywood Racks Sport Rider 2" Hitch Bike Rack, Carries 2 Bikes up to 80 lbs Each for Standard, Fat Tire and Electric Bicycles - Heavy Duty, Foldable Ebike Rack for Car, Truck, and SUV

Installed on a 2011 Jeep Wrangler. It holds both my Lectric XP Step Thru (had to but an adjustable adapter bar for the step thru) and XP lite with no issues. Easy to assemble. I'm able to install bikes by myself with little difficultly. I've used during the last couple of months on highways/streets, bikes are very stable, no movement at all. I like having the integrated locks on the frame hooks. Box includes keyed-alike locking hitch pin, 8’ security cable, and locking frame hooks. Well worth the investment.

Holds up my Lectric X 3.0 with no difficulty and protected it for a long drive. Easy to assemble though it is heavy and can be a little difficult to lift from the ground up to a higher level vehicle like a Jeep Wrangler but I was able to manage being a woman that is not super strong. 😆 It is HEAVY because it is BUILT WELL.

This Hollywood Racks Sport Rider 2” hitch product is amazing, easy to install, rugged, and easy to use once set up! Well worth the money! Use it all the time and I can even open and close the back hatch on my SUV when the rack is in the folded position (understand this might not apply to all SUV makes and models). Couldn’t be happier with this purchase!

This rack is one of the only ones that combines affordability with extremely high quality *and* carries the full weight of two Juiced RipCurrfent S ebikes! It is out-of-stock almost everywhere it’s sold as soon as it’s in stock, so if you need one and it’s available, I highly recommend you GET ON IT NOW! This heavy duty rack is made for a 2” hitch receptacle, and won’t work with anything smaller. Anything less would probably not hold two of these 80 lb bikes and survive a road trip. Pros: It’s super easy to put together; I did it without reading the instructions and only had to do a couple things over because I didn’t foresee the sequence. That said, the instructions are very simple to read and follow. No tools needed that aren’t included except for one bolt, which requires a crescent or open-end wrench and plier or socket wrench, as it isn’t the same size as the nuts the included “plug-wrench” is for. It is HEAVY duty, but not extremely heavy! I’m 62 and can easily put it on and take it off by myself. If you can lift your ebike, you can install this assembled rack on your hitch. Getting it to fit your bike is fairly simple, you just adjust the sliding wheel holders until your bike fits snugly in them, set fully down into them so the tire hits both front and rear contact points, then tighten them in place. The tilt-down feature will make getting into your hatchback or pickup bed easy, and is easily done alone as well. Older people may want to enlist the aid of their co-rider if two bikes are on board. The tilt-up feature for getting the rack out of the way when bikes are off the rack is simple to use and solidly locks in place. The anti-rattle/shake feature that grips the hitch pin works really well, and is easy to set once the hitch is installed and the pin in place. It pulls the pin toward the hitch, pulling it tight against a welded stop on the mounting tube where it goes into the hitch, effectively keeping the rack from wiggling in the hitch. It will still move, but doesn’t clatter around noisily. The provided cable lock is pretty high quality! Like any other cable, it’s not going to stop a thief who has time to spend getting it off, but it will keep your bike(s) safely on the rack if you’re not leaving it somewhere unattended for long. It also doubles really well as an added safety feature to wrap around your top tubes while transporting your bikes on any truck with a rack and rear crossbar; I just wrap the cable lock around my rear rack bar and the top tubes on the bikes and if there’s somehow a failure of the rack/hitch connection (pin breaks, something else breaks and connection fails - highly unlikely) it will keep the rack and bikes from bouncing down the highway. It also works well for securing the rack to the vehicle by running it through the safety-chain hooks on the hitch as additional security to compliment the less-than-optimum pin lock that’s provided (more on that in Cons) Overall, considering how good this rack is, the price is the final Pro it has going for it. It’s cheaper than anything else on the market that does what it does. Period. Which is why it never remains in stock for long. If you buy directly from Hollywood Racks, you’ll get in line for delivery when it’s in stock, which could be a while. If you buy from Amazon, you’ll get it an a couple days because if it’s not in stock it says “Item Unavailable”. eTrailer.com also sells them but they run out quickly too, though they do a great job of keeping in touch to let you know they haven’t forgotten about you, plus they have a ton of trailer-related items on their site and really knowledgeable staff for answering questions and steering you to the right accessories for anything you may need. The Cons: Not too many, but a couple in particular, like the above-mentioned pin lock. It’s just not a confidence-inducing lock, all things considered. With the anti-rattle tightening mechanism tight, this hitch pin is locked in place well enough so that the pin won’t fall out while driving if the lock happens to come off (not properly installed/locked, fails for some reason, etc), but if the steel band that wraps the pin ever rusts it may break someday and the pin will be loose in the receiver. The lock fits loosely on the pin, the cap covering the key hole doesn’t seat well over the lock and the whole thing feels just a bit like a weak point. A higher quality pin and lock would be a good investment even though those provided are of fair quality. One thing to note is that you can install the pin end of the cable lock into the lock itself without turning the key, which makes it a lot easier to lock, and this may translate to the pin lock as well, though I haven’t tried it yet. I mention it because getting the key into the lock while it’s under the rear of your vehicle and trying to get it seated and locked is a pain, but if it pushes on, this will be a much easier process. The tightening grips on the nuts that hold the tire seats in place on the rack are set so that, when the tire seats are right next to each other on the crossbars they sit on, the grip for one won’t turn a full circle without hitting the other one’s grip, making it impossible to tighten one tire seat fully. Not really an issue since once the tires are strapped in with the rubber cinches the tire seats can’t slide, and the screws in the ends of the crossbars provide a stop so they can’t slide off the bar when loose, but it’s something they should fix, and something you can plan for when installing yours so that they are spaced a bit further apart from each other. I tried keeping my bike centered behind my truck when transporting it by itself, so when I put two on the rack, they ended up right next to each other. Sliding them four inches apart when running two bikes would probably solve the problem, but the bikes will stick out the side of your vehicle more. I think that’s really it for Cons. A bottom line for anyone considering this rack is DO IT! I wish the suggested star ratings here weren’t limited to “Lock feature”, “Easy to lock” and “Easy to assemble”, because two of those three happen to be minor issues that really take away from what is a solid five star rating even WITH the minor lock issues.

Good quality rack and great for my 80 lb. fat tire electric bike. I like that it flips up in a stowed position. Locking hooks and tire straps are a big plus. Everything works great. My only concern is that it does seem to shimmy a little when going over bumps or uneven surfaces. Other than that it's pretty solid.

We have two fairly heavy Aventon e-Bikes. This rack is built tough and has some really good features. 1. The attachment to the car is very well designed. It has a U piece inside and after you install the locking pin, you turn a handle which snugs up the connection so there is zero slop in it. 2. The wheel straps are high quality and easy to tighten and loosen. 3. Other useful features include lockable hitch pin and lockable center bike holding brackets. All the locks use the same key, which is really nice. It also tilts down, even with the bikes installed, so you can access the trunk. Very solid and well designed rack.

I purchased two Himiway Zebras which are 79 pounds each. I believe these are the heaviest, fat tire E bikes in production, but that’s because they’re great bikes, so I needed a rack that would hold them without vibrating or snapping off with too much tongue weight.. This bike rack fit these monster bikes without any problem and most of all there’s so many ways to secure it that it never vibrated an ounce while I’m flying down the highway. No vibration lots of tight connections. I also love that I could park it at a hotel and not worry. There are a number of keyed different locks on this bike that come standard out of the box (4) and I use all of them to make sure no one‘s going take my bikes or my hitch or all three. This is one quality product so the price might be a little higher but it was worth it. It’s a little bit heavy to pull out of my shed but I would deal with the heaviness for all the functionality and peace of mind when you’re driving with something that cost four grand .

I just got a new Juiced Ripcurrent S ebike and it weighs 75 lbs with the battery and 65 lbs without. This rack easily handles that and it is very stable on my truck due to the stabilizer feature on the hitch. It was very easy to assemble because there is an installation video that walks you through it all. If your Ebike is over 70 lbs, this hitch rack is well worth the price. It's expensive but it's better to be safe than sorry with this rack. I like that you can fold it up on the hitch when not in use, and that you can lock the top bar hooks in place. So far the wheel straps work very well and the overall quality seems very solid. I've only had it for 2 weeks, but so far it holds up very well. Hauling a mountain bike and 70lb ebike is no problem for this rack! It's very sturdy and adjustable. If you have a 70+lb Ebike don't cheap out on a hitch rack, this one is specifically designed for it and I don't have any regrets!

What a great bike carrier! After spending two weeks reading up about E-bike carriers and watching lots of YouTube videos on the subject, we decided to go with this carrier. The Hollywood Sportrider E-bike rack is really well built with some nice features. It is very sturdy and made with heavy gauge steel. The joint welds are perfectly made and the steel parts are nicely coated. The entire build is of good quality! The box that the rack came in was double boxed and inside the main big box almost every part came in its own smaller box and each part inside each box comes in a protective bag. The rack was easy to assemble and all of the tools need to assemble the rack are included with the kit. There are also two bolt on brackets for two 20 inch wheel size bike. Our bikes are 26 inch wheel size, so we do not need the brackets. The kit also comes with two keys that work with the included locking hitch receiver pin, the lock for the two hook that hold the bikes down and a cable lock. I’ll be getting some extra keys cut, so that I can have a key in our two vehicles and a spare left at home. I assembled the carrier in about 15 minutes. The illustrated instructions are well made and easy to follow. The hitch receiver tightening system works well to reduce the amount of wiggling of the carrier. The rack once installed is able to tilt away from the vehicle to allow for the rear hatch of the vehicle to opened. The rack also folds up against the car while it is not being used to carry bikes. And yes the bend in the top of the tube is supposed to be there!!! The one thing that I can critique, would be the plastic ratchet mechanism that holds the wheel straps. The plastic mechanism looks to be small in size and therefore appears to me as a weak point. Hopefully I’m wrong and the plastic mechanism will hold up OK over the years. So far the ratcheting strap mechanism works really well, but time will tell. Over all I believe this too be a great carrier for E-bikes.

Spent a lot of time comparing E-Bike racks and this one is by far the best in his price range from a design standpoint. Easy to assemble and to use. Incuded hitch pin and cable lock are items that I was planing to buy, but since it was included, I saved on those items.

Très bien fait (qualité de construction) et facile à manipuler

We bought this bike rack after being very disapointed with a competitor's version. The fact that the Hollywood's bar can be layed down to install the first bike is a very nice feature. I love the tensioner that is very simple yet very efficient at tightening the hitch into the receiver.

Lots of weight to the rack, tho I guess it’s a good thing as it’s thick steal. The pin to keep the bar straight up to lock your bicycle’s in place get’s to be a pain in arse to get pin through lined up. And if you have a spare tire on the rear, no f’g way you’ll fit a second e-bike. The company is not honest with that! You’ll need to buy a hitch mount extender. As the peddles get in the way.
