4 reasons not to buy

- The Destination E is only compatible with 2” hitches.
- An owner says the pin used to fold and unfold the rack is difficult to reach.
Bottom line
The Hollywood Racks Destination E is a platform hitch rack for two 70lb bikes. It only fits 2” hitch receivers, up to 50" wheelbases, 4.5” tires, and frame tubing between one and two inches in diameter. Fat tires require the purchase of longer straps. Owners praise the rack's sturdy build, easy assembly, tool-free installation. It features a 90-degree tilt and accommodates various bike styles. Complaints are minor, but versions of this rack made between 2022 and 2023 were recalled due to defective cam-lever bolts. Overall, experts and owners deem the sturdy Hollywood Racks Destination E worthy of investment.BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy.
