    Will a Thule EasyFold XT 2 fit a 2020/2021 Superdelite?

    This is the same rack I have, but I see a component in yours that is different from mine - looks like a gray swingarm or other part ? (Long gray part between car and bike) Cannot really make it out - I know the racks sold in Europe have lighting installed, North America not; but this is also...

    loading/unload ebike from platform bike rack

    Having considered many options, I opted for Thule Easy Fold. My circumstances are a little unique because I live in a Condo and do not have a garage to store something like the Kuat. The ability to fold and store the Thule was a very compelling reason for me

    Affordable Ebike hitch rack?

    Trek Verve + 2 chain is constantly slipping.

    Thanks Howard, I have instructed the Dealer to leave the guard off and he has reluctantly agreed. I will purchase the Amazon one mentioned above if it looks like I will need it, will ride with no guard for a while.

    Trek Verve + 2 chain is constantly slipping.

    Dropped off our bikes to have chain re-installed and my wife's bike checked. The Trek dealer assures me he has a fix and it will not happen again......He advised me against removing the chain guard

    Trek Verve + 2 chain is constantly slipping.

    I purchased two Verve+2 for me and my wife over the Winter and we went out for our first rides outdoors today (+12C Toronto area) My chain came off and I had to walk the Bike back over a Km to my car. Waiting to hear back from the Trek Dealer where we bought the bikes. Before I purchased them I...

    loading/unload ebike from platform bike rack

    While I don't yet need help lifting my bike onto the rack, I expect in time I might. Thus, my decision to buy the Thule Easy Fold which has a price comparable to the Kuat. I also liked the fact that it folds up into a compact form

    Add two Drops

    I have purchased 2 Trek +2 Verve Step Through Bikes and a Thule Easy Rack, so our setup seems very similar to yours. I have not yet tested mounting the Bikes on the rack, but it looks like I will have a similar challenge as they do not have crossbars so will need to clamp onto seat post. I plan...
