Recommended 3-Bike Hanging Style Motorhome Bike Rack
Question:
I need a hitch bike rack that will hold 3 bikes and be mounted to an RV. I used one and lost a bike on the highway. I want a VERY sturdy one that will not be a danger AT ALL. I have read reviews of some meant for RVs but had complaints about truly being heavy duty enough. I prefer the kind where the bike hangs down and not the type that support the wheels at the bottom. Suggestions?

We can help you with a RV-rated 3-bike hanging style hitch bike carrier for your motorhome. All such carriers appear on the linked page.
The Swagman Original 3 carrier # S64152-2 is a basic but sturdy 3-bike rack that fits a 2-inch motorhome hitch. I have owned this rack for several years; it is not a fancy "boutique" carrier but it is very solid and mine has held up extremely well. Unlike some racks this one can be used on motorhomes, towable travel trailers and large 5th wheels too (not all racks can be used on all types of RV but this one can). You can add the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable # S64030 to protect both the rack and bikes.
You can refer to the linked article for more helpful information on motorhome bike racks.
