Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
- Lightweight Bike Rack With Rise in Shank That Can be Used on Motorhome
- While the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # SH22G is indeed a fantastic rack, it is not rated for use behind a motorhome, so I can't recommend going that route, even with air shocks on your motorhome.
I do have a really good option for a bike rack that is indeed rated for use behind a motorhome, is lightweight, and has a rise in the shank for excellent clearance; the rack is made by Hollywood Racks:

- If it were me I would go with Ultra-Fab Rotating, Hitch Mounted Skid Wheels for RVs up to 30' Long - 4" Diameter - Qty 2 Item # UF48-979014 because the wheels can swivel. On Ultra-Fab Hitch Mounted Steel Rollers for RVs w/ 2-1/2" Hitch Tubing - 3" Diameter - Qty 2 Item # UF48-979017 the wheels are fixed. Having wheels that can swivel means they are more effective if you are not traveling in a straight line!

view full answer... - Does a Cargo Carrier Affect the GVWR of My 2021 Mercedes Benz Sprinter 3500?
