Expert Answers about Airstream RV and Camper Bike Racks


  • Recommendation For Carrying 2 E-Bikes Behind a Class B RV on 2017 Ram ProMaster 2500 Chassis
  • First of all if your Class B camper did not come from the factory with a receiver the Curt # C13207 is my recommendation as it is made in the USA. This will bolt on underneath your 2017 Ram ProMaster 2500 chassis with no drilling required. As you have the swing open doors I recommend using the Swing Away Adapter # SAR36VR which will allow you to access your rear doors without having to remove your bikes. For a bikes the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR is my preferred rack...

  • Will the Curt Adjustable Hitch Work With a RV Rated Bike Rack
  • Yes absolutely, Blaine - as long as the bike rack doesn't eat up the remaining 400 lbs of tongue weight, I'd say you'll be good to go.

  • E-Bike Rack Recommendation that Can be Used at Rear of Class B Motorhome
  • Hey Richard, I have a solution for you but the Hollywood Racks part # HLY66ZR is not rated for the rougher ride quality at the rear of RVs but we do have the Hollywood Racks RV Rider part # HLY64FR which is rated for this application and would work great.

  • Replacement Hitch Bike Rack Recommendation For A Sportrack Hitch N Drive 700 Deluxe
  • I did take a look at what we have for your Sportrack Hitch N' Drive 700 Deluxe Series, and while we do offer the Locking Knob with Bolt for SportRack Single-Arm, Hitch-Mounted Bike Carriers # SR0018 which does fit your Hitch N' Load bike rack, however the triangular knob you're looking at is not offered as a replacement. Since this rack has been discontinued for some time now, replacement parts are going to be few and far between. With that being said, it may be a good idea to upgrade...

  • Mounting a Hitch and Bike Rack on the Back of a Pop-Up Camper
  • We do have hitches available for campers like your 2019 Coachmen Viking LS Camper. These hitches mount to the frame, so you'll need to take that measurement into consideration. I recommend the Curt Adjustable Class III, part # C13701. It adjusts from 18" to 51" and mounts to box frames, C-channel frames, or I-beam frames. It has a 2" receiver and can be bolted or welded on. I've linked to a video review of this below. As for your bike rack, I was unable to find out if yours is compatible...

  • Can Swagman Original Towing Rack be Used with 20004 Toyota 4Runner and 2008 Forest River Pop Up
  • Hey Brian, yes you will be able to tow your 2008 Forest River Pop up while using the Swagman Original Towing Bike Rack part # S64675 that you mentioned. With this rack you have a 3,500 lb towing capacity so your 2,300 lb pop up with bikes loaded on the rack would be no problem.

  • Can Gen-Y Phantom X Ball Mount Be Used For Carrying Bike Rack
  • As long as you do not exceed the tongue weight capacity of the # GY87VR it could handle your bike and bike rack. This has a tongue weight capacity of 700 lbs so it won't be a problem. However, if you think you might tow your popup camper and also carry the bike rack I would get the Replacement Shank for Gen-Y Adjustable Ball Mount # 325-GH-504 or # 325-GH-305 instead. These are incredibly sturdy with a high capacity that can handle just about anything.

  • Roof Rack Options for a 7' Wide Camper
  • I'd be happy to help you find a roof rack for your camper, Todd! We have a few different styles of roof racks and the correct one just depends on the style of your camper: - Swagman Roamer LT Roof Rack for Pop-Up Campers and Camper Shells # S80510 - SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack - Square Crossbars # SR1020 (Will not fit trailer roofs with rounded or curved edges) - Rhino-Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack for Camper Shells # Y02-490B The Roamer LT and SportRack racks are stationary with...

  • Can The Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR Secure Fat Frame E-Bikes?
  • Rather than securing the frame mount on the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR around the large portion of the frame you can secure it to the seat post. I have included an image of the rack with a similar style bike having a large frame and connecting to the seat post.

  • Single Bike Rack for E-Bike on Winnebago Rialta
  • I'm assuming you're looking for a hitch mounted bike rack. The only single bike rack rated for the rear of your Winnebago Rialta is the Saris MHS DUO # SAR23MR. However, this may not have a high enough capacity for your e-bike at 40 lbs. A better option would be the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY84FR. This can hold 2 bikes at 80 lbs each and can handle tires up to 5" wide so your typical e-bike won't have a problem fitting. It also comes with a keyed-alike...

  • We do have the replacement pad for the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack item # HLY64FR. It is the Replacement Rim Protector for Hollywood Racks TRS SE 2-Bike Rack item # HRTRS-RP-STP. I checked with Hollywood Racks it fits the Sport Rider E-Bike racks and the RV Rider racks as well.

  • Can Hollywood Racks RV Rider be Used With Step-Thru Electric Bikes on Travel Trailer
  • Hey there Ron; the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # HLY64FR can indeed hold step-thru electric bikes without using any type of adapter bar. It has clamps that slide instead of hooks which is why it can do that. However, the # HLY64FR cannot be used on a travel trailer. If you don't want to use an adapter bar the only option for a travel-trailer approved ebike rack that will work is the Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # LGA77FR. This...

  • Recommended RV Bumper Hitch for a Bike Rack and Two E-Bikes
  • So from the looks of it John, the Mount-n-Lock HiLoHitch for 4.0" RV Bumpers - 2" Hitch Receiver # MNT47FR sounds like it's exactly what you're looking for. This hitch mounts around your 4" x 4" RV bumper and provides a 2" receiver so you can mount your bike rack. This hitch also has a 300 lb capacity so it'll be plenty to handle your two e-bikes and bike rack.

  • E-Bike Rack Recommendation with Ramp for Class C Motorhome
  • Hey Pam, the Yakima OnRamp bike rack part # Y36FR would be a really great option that covers everything you need. It's RV rated so it can be used in your Class C RV hitch as well as Honda CR-V, it's designed for e-bikes, and also has a ramp built into it as well.

  • Is the Inno Tire Hold HD Bike Rack Rated for Use w/ 5th Wheel Trailers?
  • No, Ed I am sorry it is not. I checked with Inno and their Tire Hold HD Bike Rack item # IN25RR is only rated to be used behind your standard motor vehicle. It isn't built strong enough to withstand the vibrations of being mounted behind a 5th wheel trailer or any kind of motorhome. The bouncing will eventually lead to a parts failure and you'll shake the bike rack apart. The best bike rack for a 5th wheel trailer is the Hollywood Racks RV Rider item # HLY64FR. This bike rack has an 80...

  • Recommended E-Bike Bike Rack For Vehicles, A Motorhome, And A 5th Wheel Trailer
  • Hey Steve, I recommend the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack - Black # Y47VR or Gray # Y87VR. It is rated for use on all vehicles, fifth wheels, travel trailers, motorhomes, and flat towed vehicles. When on vehicles it has a 70lb per bike rating and when on an RV a 60lb per bike rating. The wheel cradles can fit tires up to 3.25" wide with up to a 52" maximum wheelbase. The loading ramp for this rack is sold separately with part # Y39VR. I've attached a short video below where AJ will go over...

  • Dual Hitch Adapter And Bike Rack For Behind a RV Motorhome When Flat Towing
  • You are going to want to use the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544, since your Blue Ox Tow Bar # BLU22CR goes straight into the receiver and doesn't have any kind of drop. I also prefer the Malone adapter as it has the anti-rattle built into both receivers. Since the bike rack is going behind your motorhome and carrying E-Bikes I recommend the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR as it is rated for use behind motorhomes and the frame mounted connection will allow...

  • Will Lectric 3.0 E-Bikes Fit Inno Tire Hold HD Bike Rack
  • The wheelbase won't be a problem for the Inno Tire Hold HD Bike Rack # IN25RR but the fenders will be. If you don't have fenders on your Lectric 3.0 then you can definitely use this bike rack. However, I have only seen it with fenders so I'm guessing this won't work. A better option if you have fenders would be the Hollywood Racks RV Rider # HLY64FR. The RV Rider is also designed for electric bikes so it has an 80 lb capacity per bike. This rack is perfect for the Lectric 3.0 since it...

  • Bike Rack That Will Fold On Front Of 2015 Ford F-250 With Curt Front Receiver Hitch
  • The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR is the only rack style bike carrier that I can find that has a longer hitch pin length when folded up. The Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack that you have and the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack # HLY64FR will both require 7-1/2" from the hitch pin center hole of your Curt Front Receiver # C31018 to the front of the bumper for the rack to fold up. The Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR will be 10" from the hitch pin center hole when...
