What Bike Rack Option Do You Have as an Alternative to the LC429756?
Question:
Hi, we have the Jack it with the tower but the off set bar makes it impossible to turn without the tires of our bikes hit our RV. I see in some videos that there is a straight bar option. Is that true? How can we get one? Thank you.

I'm sorry to hear about the interference! I believe you are talking about the Hitch-It 2 Bike Rack for Straight Tongue Trailers # LC731138. This rack comes with clamps that work with 2" - 4" wide trailer tongues.
If you are looking for an alternative solution, I recommend using a dual hitch adapter like the Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter, 2" or 6" Drop/Rise # RM-077-6. With that adapter, I recommend using a bike rack like the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SA4412B on the top receiver and the travel trailer on the bottom receiver. It is important to note that you reduce the overall weight capacity of the hitch by 50% percent whenever using a dual-hitch adapter.
