Please advise if the 2 bike 522QR is suitable for a Polestar 2 with its electric towbar?

I don't see any reason for it not to

Has anyone fitted this to a pick up truck, one with a canopy cover I e. A straigh up back with glass. Am wondering how much range with handle bars etc

Hi Luke, whilst ours isn’t fitted to a pick up truck as you described; it’s on our RV which does have a completely flat, straight up back. The handle of the rear fitted bike (the one nearest the vehicle) does touch the back of the vehicle if you just strap the bike on using the fixtures that come with this rack, but to get around it, when we lock the bike to the rack (using a security bike lock), we do so through the front wheel, turning it out slightly away from the back of the vehicle, if that makes sense. This stops the handle bar of the rear mounted bike touching the back of the vehicle. It’s a actually a very good bike rack. We’re certainly very pleased with it and the bike doesn’t move at all when travelling. Hope this helps.

Dose the main mast tilt 90 degrees for tailgate access on a van?

Very happy with product would recommend it.

When bikes are on the rack will this block licence plate and lights and thus illegal?

It may well do depending on the placement of the hitch in relation to your lights and plate. I have a 'spare' number plate for trailers etc. and use this either in the back window or on my roof rack where it will be visible. You may prefer to get a light bar and mount this to the rack or the bikes if you have the appropriate electric socket on your tow hitch. In my case it does not obscure any of the lights and only partially covers the 'plate so I think adding a second reg plate should suffice.

Heavy duty bike carrier

Easy to fit and very strong. Perfect for heavy E-bikes but not necessarily for lighter bikes. When folded down I’m still unable to operate the back door due to the large coupling part. However I’m very happy with it.

Bike carrier

Fits with no issues. Only issue, that I have to remove wheel on bike that sits close to vehicle to avoid my rear glass being smashed with handle bars.
