What is the longest wheel span that this rack will hold. My bike is a recumbent with 65" wheel span.

I have a Rans Velocity squared, with a 65 inch wheelbase and an overall length of 7 feet. It fits fine , with about 2 inches room to spare.

I have had an 8'2" on it securely. My rack is mounted on a Yamaha TW200 enduro and I have not gone over 40 miles per hour with it on the bike. It seemed fine at that speed. I plan on putting a 9'2 on there shortly.

Don't know the exact size of your recubent bike. But I have different sized full suspension bicycles and it adjusts to fit them all. I would say yes it would accomodate a recumbent bicycle. You may have to do some adjusting and rearrangingig of the racks. I don't want to steer you wrong but some of the recumbent bikes are really low and extended really long. I have a Full Suspension MTB That the main tube is really low at the support post and the wheelbases is really extended not as extreme as the most extreme recumbent bike. If time isn't of the essence you can always send it back if it doesn't work to your liking. The video should give you a good idea if it'll work. Don't know the exact size of your recubent bike.

This rack fits standard mountain bike frames with tires 02 .25 inches, but if you mean the new very large and Fat tires I cannot say, also be aware that this rack might not accommodate Some bikes with disc brakes, my bike has disc brakes but it Fits okay but a little tricky to install. Very sturdy construction.

I have mountain bikes in my rack and no problem with it holding those tires. Looks like it can handle tires up to 31/4 inches wide. If your tires are bigger then that, it might not work for you.

This rack has three mounting holes on the strut, on my bicycle, I used the shortest option (on an '80s Schwinn tandem-26" wheels). It should fit with no problems. It's not the "beefiest" rack, but it should hold 20 pounds easily.

Depends on how long the wheelbase is on the recumbent,The Wheel slots slide plenty for any regular bicycle,I just dont know enough about a recumbent bike for a sure answer. I'm still using mine with great success.

The straps on mine are 7" long. My bike rack is 5" wide and it holds it securely, even when it's on the bike rack on the car or bus.

Yes it will, This is very light weight and once fitted, it is very sturdy. But please note that this rack is longer than regular racks, even on my bike with 700C tires, this looks longer.

I have carried two bicycles on this rack with no problems. I also added two short cords to tie the front and rear tires to the frame. Both bikes were very stable for the entire journey of 600 miles.

No way! The weight is no problem. Properly installed it will hold your bike just fine. The rack is very heavy and well made. It does however depend on the additional supports being welded to the frame on either side . The setup is very critical. The side supports must be welded in the same plane as the main hitch. If not it will bind and not slide in and out. I took mine to a welding and machine shop that I trust. It took a whole day to get it exactly right. Cost was about $500 but with the additional supports it was rock solid. John S.

I'm not sure but just to give you an idea i installed mine in a 28" wheel.It had about 2"clearance from the tire to the rack.

I have used this rack with a 26" Ladies Gary Fisher Wahoo 15.5in frame with a fairly low top tube. The tire racks adjust for the wheelbase and the top hooks clamp down pretty low. If the top tube is still too low, you can use a crossbar adapter like this:Swagman Bar Adapter

I have a hybrid 700c wheels (approx 28 inch) and there looks like a lot of room for a larger wheel. It seems that this rack is made for larger bikes.

I use rack for 2 adult road bikes. Not sure weight max but this is very sturdy product

Correct. However, the bikes are firmly held down. The tire bit being seated all the way in the cup has never presented a problem for me. I have 2 road bikes w 700cc tires. This rack has held up much better than previous racks ive used.
