Recommended Hitch-Mount Bike Carrier For Back Of Travel Trailer

Question:

I read on your website that only certain hitch mounted bike racks are recommended for use behind a travel trailer because of greater bouncing but I cannot find which ones these are. Can you help? Thank you.

We do have a bike carrier that is designed to be able to work with a trailer hitch on the rear of a trailer.

For a carrier that is easier to load and unload I recommend a platform-style bike carrier like part # S44FR. This carrier fits 2 inch receiver openings and has a 2-bike capacity up to 45 lbs per bike. It will accommodate bikes with a wheelbase up to 52 inches and with a tire width up to 3 inches. I have attached a product review video for this bike rack.
