Unboxing of a Black Widow Motorcycle rack assembling and setup, used as a bike rack for a ebike. This rack comes with a ramp so you can easily push your bike onto the rack. You tie your bike down to the rack like a motorcycle.

Great review and video!! For those people that says overkill, its peace of mind!! And the ramp is very useful!! Trust me, your LOWER back and shoulder joints will “ thank you later” for not lifting up and down your 75 -85 lbs ebike repeatedly!! Trust a Physical Therapist!!! Thumbs up 👍 for the video!

Nice, I did the same thing. I got the same rack. My e-bike is a 94 pounds E-CELLS SUPER MONARCH AWD 1000 WATT, and I also added trailer bar lights to the carrier, since the bike block the tail lights of my car. Thx, it is a good idea.

My ebike is a1000 watt ecell bike heavy as a small donkey. I just put a tuft liner in the tires to prevent flats it was tough until I bought a set of metal tire levers from Amazon, don’t forget to spray around the rem of the tire it makes it much easier to remove the tire. Get rid of those plastic tire levers and get metal levers.

We landed on this solution after multiple fails using bike racks for mid/long tail fat bikes (non-E)...think Big Fat Dummy on a bike rack... like a hippo on a tightrope. No bueno. This works for a decent price.

Anyone that checks out the ebike carrier options is going to come to the same conclusion…a motorcycle rack is MUCH more secure and cost a 3rd of what is on the market for ebikes. The closest thing I have seen that might work is over $1100 and while it looks good, I have my doubts as to if any of them can actually carry 2 heavy ebikes without failing. I was thinking about getting this exact carries for my ebikes, but I have 2 to carry and wonder about getting them both to fit on one motorcycle rack. Good video

Thanks for the informative video. People say, "You don,t need a motorcycle rack." Most ebikes are in the 70-80 lb range. This looks like a much sturdier solution, than most any "bike" rack that I have seen, even ones that are rated for ebikes. The only thing I don't like about it, is the straps. They could have made a ratcheting arm to hold the bike up, and it would be perfect.

This is like my ebike rack, but my bike ramp is made of black heavy metal it is strong I considered the aluminum one, but I hard about cracking problems with those so I opted out for the steal metal rack it only cost $108 and it’s perfect for my ebike. My bikes weight is 92 lbs and that is heavy for a bike, but most important the rack has a ramp so..... I just throttle just a little and walk the bike up the ramp. It’s on my truck 🛻 and it’s going to stay their until he’ll freeze 🥶 over or until winter ❄️ comes. I just built an ebike work station in my backyard from 4x4x8 with a crank to lift the bike up just to change tires and other work. Maybe when I stop 🛑 being camera shy 🙈 and the mob stop 🛑 looking for me I will video some of my ebike adventures.

I see two positives, price and strength. It ends there for me. Two things that make it a no go for me are, it holds only one bike, the whole strap thing is too much hassle, I want something quick, easy and solid. Its a good option for some but just not for me. I'm waiting on my quicRstuff Mach2 with add on. No tools or straps required ever.

Remember guys you need to put break lights on your rack because when it rains you will have a rain 🌧 cover over your bike 🚴 this cover will block you truck 🛻 break lights from other motorists. You don’t want to be rearranged by other cars 🚗 because your stupid for not having visible break lights
