How do you transport your bike/s?

[steveindenmark]

In the not too distant future we hope to have 2 electric bikes.

They are obviously a lot heavier than our road bikes even with their batteries removed.

I would just like to know how other forum members transport their bikes from place to place when they are not riding them.

Possibly to answer my own question.

This appears to work quite well.

I am going to buy one of these when I get a tow bar fitted to new camper.

"THULE EuroPower Electric Bike Towball Cycle Carrier 916"

EDIT: just saw your link to "Viking" good price about £100 cheaper then Thule but shipping on top and looks a poor quality in comparison but might be good enough...they dont seem to publish the weight capacity though

I dont see a problem putting them on the roof provided you keep to a sensible speed ..i.e 50 mph ... but I think its better to put them on a rear cycle rack and even better to put them in the vehicle! .. but it will need to be a big vehicle!

Mine folds in half and I carry it up 2 flights of stairs in one hand

A census officer stopped me once for a chat and noticed i was holding the bike and said, god you must be strong.

And one time, a little girl saw me holding it and said "what the hell?! you broke your bike in half! how did you do that?"

Wilma folds in half and fits nicely in the back of the Jeep with hubby's Goped and the 3 dogs can't use a tow bar doowhacky as we usually have the caravan attached and a thule roof box is used so the roof is out even if i could get the darling up to that height!!!
