[QUOTE="Calsun, post: 12924, member: 3087"] Take a look at the e-bikes sold by REI that have sturdy rear racks and 2" tires and integrated front and rear lights and with removable battery packs that can be taken inside the motorhome for charging. The REI CTY e.2.1 sells for $2000 and the bike mechanics at REI are first rate. It uses 27.5x1.9 inch tires which is a common size for gravel and mountain bikes so tire choices are vast for different terrain. The bike weighs 50.5 lbs but that is with the battery pack on the bike. Remove the battery pack and the bike is going to weigh around 45 lbs and so no issues lifting one onto a rear hitch mounted bike rack on the motorhome. Insurance will be much less for such a bike. Recommend using a bike cable lock, motion detecting alarm, bike cover, and heavy duty cargo net over the bikes to deter thieves.
