An e-bike hitch rack is a platform rack rated for the weight of an electric bike, which usually weighs 45 to 75 pounds against 25 to 35 for a road or mountain bike. Two numbers decide which one: the rack's rating per bike and what your hitch can carry. Check the per-bike rating against your heaviest bike with the battery in; taking the battery out before loading saves 6 to 10 pounds. Then check the hitch. Two e-bikes and the rack can weigh close to 200 pounds, the tongue limit of a Class I 1.25" receiver, so most e-bike racks are built for a 2" receiver. Racks with a loading ramp let one person roll a heavy bike up instead of lifting it; racks without one cost less and fold smaller. Call 1-800-272-5362 with your bike's weight and your hitch size and a Rack Specialist will confirm the rack and the receiver it needs.

"Absolutely Fantastic customer service!!!"

"My husband needed to buy a new roof rack for a truck he recently purchased and was told to get a System One brand that makes the racks from aluminium (so it doesnt rust). So I went searching online and originally went to System One's website to see if I could buy it direct from them, but I couldnt, so I found rackwarehouse.com who did sell them. Initially I was hesitant to buy something like this online since we had a bad experience with the 1st roof rack we bought 10 years ago from an online dealer, but it was impossible to find this thing in a bricks and mortar shop so we were kinda stuck buying online. So kind of reluctantly we went ahead and made the $$$$ dollar purchase with rackwarehouse, just praying we didnt get ripped off or have it arrive 6 months late and in hot pink or something. Well to my surprise, we had THE BEST EXPERIENCE WITH THIS WEBSITE! Not only did the rack arrive in 24 HOURS, but the following morning after I placed the order, a kind man phoned me to let me know we ordered the wrong sized rack for the truck we had (they ask you for the truck make and model when you buy it to make sure you get the right one) He said we bought the wrong size which was for a compact truck and that the correct size was about 9 bucks more. So he sent me the invoice, I paid within the hour, and then he shipped it THAT DAY and it arrived THE NEXT DAY. Bam! Perfect! I was so grateful he phoned up and he was soooooooooooooooooo nice! Really kind person and said this happens all the time. So dont forget to leave your vehicle details during checkout when prompted! I highly recommend this company. They are based in VT and have A+ service. The ladder rack was perfect as well. If we ever need anything rack related we will be going to this website from now on forever more. Thanks guys!!"
