Us too, Kuat, used it five years now with two heavy e-bikes, no worries. 2019 Montana HC 3130. Kuat sounds European but is actually made in Missouri, I think.

I 2nd Kuat racks. Hollywood also makes excellent racks rated for RV use.
I can speak for Kuat customer service as excellent after the sale as well. I accidentally broke a key off in the cable lock assembly. I called them and actually got an English speaking person right here in the states. They had the part in stock and in the mail to me the very next day.

Our E-bike manufacturer (The Electric Bike Company) sells and recommends the Swagman E-Spec bike carrier, which is one of very few rated for trailers and RV's. Been using one for quite some time and it works as it should.

Go with Hollywood rack
We have a 2021 Montana 3120 legacy. We purchased a Hollywood rack in October of 2020 and use it to carry our 2 rad e-bikes. They weigh about 65 pounds each. The rack has done the job well. Last week I was inspecting the rack when I removed the bikes and to my surprise I discovered stress cracks on the bracket that holds
The swing arm. See the photos attached. I purchased directly from Hollywood out of California. I called them and spoke with Jeff in technical support and sent him photos. They are sending me replacement parts for the unit. The warranty is lifetime to the original owner.

Just a word of advice to those who may not know make sure you purchase a bike rack for the back of a towed RV many manufacturers won’t cover them it that’s where you use them most are meant to be on a vehicle like truck or car or motor home
