What is the maximum weight for rear rack?
1944829
Sorry, but I can't find any reference to a maximum weight on the rack itself. This is were the rule of common since comes in. Would I put a child seat on it or expect it to support painners? Well no I wouldn't. Having said that I liked the rack enough to transferred it to my Dahon Speed 8. In that capacity I've used it to load up a full bag of groceries, but as a general rule of thumb I carry much light loads. Hope this was helpful.

I am not sure what the weight limit is, however the rack is very sturdy and should have no problem carrying 4 electric bikes. The issue would be if they were wider than a standard mountain bike. I have loaded all four of our mountain bikes and they fit great. I can send or upload photos if requested.

I guess 20 pounds. The bolts rust after a couple of years but you can just paint over them. The price for this rack is reasonable and I use it often.

I obtained these wheels a year ago so don't remember. But I'm 180 lbs and I've carried more that 40+ lbs on the rear rack without damage to the wheels even though I've broken two rear racks. So strength is not an issue if that is your concern.

Probably pushing the limit. This is the most sturdy rack I've seen for the 4 dr. jeeps but I'd contact the company just to make sure. Maybe 300 lb. limit Charlie W.

As long as you stay with in the weight limits you will be ok..."3-, 4-, or 5-bike racks available, capable of holding 135, 180, or 225 lbs., respectively". The max would be 225lbs.

The 2 & 3-bike trunk carriers are rated to support a maximum weight of 90lbs. according to the PDF manual. For a trunk-mounted carrier like this, I would try to stay at about 35-40lbs. maximum per bike to be safe. I have no direct experience with the 3-bike carrier at all and would find that a pretty hefty load for a trunk-mounted carrier. Every car trunk and support structure is fairly unique, so always err on the side of caution when maxing out the weight on a trunk. Also, always mount the heavier bike closer to the trunk to minimize twisting and the extra leverage against the trunk that the added weight can apply.

Recommended maximum of 300 pounds. However, I would not put that much weight on it unless I have several plates on the storage pegs to stabilize the load.

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.

Sorry, I really cannot answer, too many thing can effect the area between the rack and the tire/back of the vehicle

The rack is strong I think the limit would be balancing on the bike - all that weight in the back or jus on one side if you only use one rack. A heavy grocery bag should not be an issue

Not sure, but once the rack is full, it weighs approx. 25 -30 lbs. Something heavy duty.

I don't know for sure but I would estimate it could hold 2 beach cruiser size bikes or up to 50 pounds. I would estimate that the measurement from receiver to outside of rack would be around 20".

50 pounds is pushing it. The limitation is the capacity of your rear rack (remember it only has 5mm screws fastening it to the chainstays of your bike. As well, do you really want 50 pounds riding up that high on the back of your bike? I am notorious for overloading bikes but even I would say 30 pounds max.

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.

The spec says 300lbs. The 2" tubes are very strong. If just static weight for what you are going to do is OK. But it will be moving, acceleration and brake and turns, You better have rubber bumper to stop the rack from moving left and right, front and back. It comes with a bumper for the rear end at bottom. But I would put more on the upper, also for the front cross bar too.
