Trailer Bike Rack Recommendation for Trailer without Sturdy Bumper or Hitch
Question:
I have an 2013 Aerolite 224ES hybrid camper. Wondering what my options would be able to use a bike rack? My current bumper doesnt feel sturdy enough to hold the weight. thoughts? Thanks

Expert Reply:
I believe your best option would be the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk # CC-275 since your bumper isn't solid and you don't have a hitch at the rear of the trailer. This will install on the front of your A-frame trailer and allow a bike rack to install in the hitch opening. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
You will need a bike rack to fit this as well. The most popular bike rack we carry is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has a ton of positive reviews from our customers who have tried it. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
