My wife and I are just starting to look at e-bikes and I'm realizing that transportation may be driving the bike choice more than the bike itself.

We live in an area where we can ride locally, but our primary use would be taking the bikes to parks, rail trails, campgrounds, and weekend trips. We'd probably transport them at least weekly.

Initially, I was drawn to folding bikes, especially the Lectric XP4, because the idea of folding two bikes and putting them in the back of our SUV sounds much easier than dealing with a bike rack. Knowing I'm buying two, the price range was ideal as well.

However, we saw a Lectric in the wild recently and it looked much smaller than I expected, which has me wondering if we'd be happier on a more traditional 26"/27.5" e-bike.

The problem is that I really dislike bike racks. I used to have a 4-bike hitch rack for family trips and it was heavy, awkward, and a hassle to install and load.

So my questions are:

1. For those who regularly transport e-bikes, do you find it easier to use a hitch rack or load folding bikes into your vehicle?
2. Are there e-bike hitch racks that are genuinely easy to use, or are they all somewhat cumbersome given the weight of e-bikes?
3. Has anyone chosen a folding e-bike primarily because it made transportation easier, and if so, any regrets?

I feel like I need to decide how I'm going to transport the bikes before I can decide which bikes to buy.

I'm getting an "Unable to accept invite" error trying to get into the Discord. Anyone in there and can find out if the link on their website has expired?
