Bike Rack Solution for 2018 Winnebago Minnie 1710 that Has Lippert Jack-It
Question:
I have a GMC 1500 Sierra with a 2inch receiver. I have a Yakama bike rack designed for 2 Ebikes which weigh 50lbs each. I would like to purchase a friends 2018 Minnie 1710 and take our Ebike along using our bike rack. Someone suggested a double receiver and extension to allow room between the truck and trailer hitch. The Yakama rack extends 33inch from the rear of the receiver and would most likely hit the propane tanks without some sort of extension. Can you recommend a solution?

Expert Reply:
Is there anyway to get your bikes under 40 lbs like maybe by removing the seats and/or batteries? If so, there's a really easy solution with the Lippert Bike Wing Adapter part # LC731137 since your trailer has the Jack-It adapter mounted to the jack flange.
Other than that there really isn't a great bike rack solution since you'd need so much extension for your bike rack to fit and clear the trailer jack unless you'd consider a front hitch for the truck or there was a hitch at the rear of the travel trailer.
