what is the weight limit for each bike that this rack can carry?

According to the manual for S545, the max load is 140lbs. It doesn't break it down per bicycle, but it averages out to 35 lbs per bike if you're carrying four bikes.

140 lbs according to the manual. Most rack I had researched is around 140 lbs, one or two may exceed 140 but expensive. You can remove one or two front wheels or seat post (steel type) to reduce the total weight. Also, you might need to consider the vehicle that it can tow. The rack is weight ~27 lbs + 140 lbs (4 bikes) = 167 lbs.

I do not know what the weight limit would be for this bike. I can say, however, that I weigh about 190 lbs., and it is more than sturdy for my weight.

This thing is really built well. Hollywood's own website (you could have googled this), (http://hollywoodracks.com/bike-racks/hitch-racks/sportrider-hitch-rack-tech.htm) says up to 50 lbs per bike, 100 pounds total. An extension can be bought to hold two more bikes, so weight on the main beam isn't a factor. The only limitation I can see be the hoops the tires sit in, and they are pretty tough. We have an old Schwinn that has to go 45+ lbs that I have had on the rack with no problem.

I'm not sure of the accual weight limit but the quality of the material used it will hold any bike you can put on it. I hauled 4 adult 28 inch bikes from Illinois to Florida and back and the thing didn't flex at all. The rack is really built like a tank.

The basket can handle 50lbs and can handle more depending how the weight is distributed and how the basket lays upon your rack. But you might be more limited by your rack. The rack on top of which I mounted this basket on my grocery-getter bike is rated for 25lbs.

I don't think there is one. You could carry 2 of the heaviest bikes made without any trouble. This rack is heavy duty.

If I remember correctly the weight limit should be 200 lbs. It is about right for 4 adults bikes.

No stated weight limit. I have put my 60 lbs Fatbike on it with no problems.

We bought this rack for our Harley Davidson 1996 Heritage Softail motorcycle which weighs about 650lbs. Although is says that it will carry up to 1,000lb we did not feel comfortable putting our bike up on it and everyone else that we spoke to about it warned us not to do it. We ended up just renting a U-Haul trailer. We will only use this rack only for camping now (carry our cooler), not to haul any vehicles.

I believe the spec weight is 30 pounds per bike. That said, I have the 4 bike carrier and I stood on the base coming out of the hitch sans bikes with no issues (250 lbs); this thing is pretty sturdy.

Not sure. They are a wide fairly thin rail, three quarters to one inch thick approximately 2.5 inches wide. Weight limit 75 pds. I would guess so but am unfamiliar with those bike racks.

I believe it is rated for 250 lbs, so with 30 lb bikes, it would hold 8 if you had nothing else stored in it. Of course, that would change if you store other items in the loft and would depend on the weight of your bikes.

I don't know a specific limit but I weighed 235, plus whatever my not-fancy mountain bike weighs, and it handles that just fine.

We've travelled w/ 4 full size mountain bikes on it & worked well. Don't know what the weight capacity is.

Upper rack has a max weight limit of 75 lbs and bottom shelf max of 25 lbs. Great quality. Would definitely recommend this item.

I don't know if there is a limit but, this rack is so heavy that I can't imagine there would be any problem.

I've put 3 bikes on my Jeep Wrangler, but they were titanium and only weigh about 20 lbs each. The rack is very solid and would have no problen with any 3 bikes, but your spare tire and tailgate hinges might...
