How to load Aventure on Bike Carrier

[Jerry Gable]

I am 70 years old and am not able to lift my 71 lb (without battery) Aventon Aventure on my bike carrier. Since my wife and I like to ride from places other than home I built this ramp which fits in my Pallisade.

Did the same thing for my wife. Took a $50 Amazon two bike rack, removed and repurposed some parts and added a 1/2 section of 4" pvc pipe for the bike to roll up. The bike rack only weighs about 15lbs and the bike is cushioned against a pair of pool noodles to avoid marring the bike paint. Took about 3 hours to figure out what I wanted to do. About an hour to build it with a handsaw, hacksaw and drill. She has put a couple thousands of miles on the rack with a Pace 500 attached.
