Bike Carrier for 2 Bikes at the Back of a 5th Wheel Trailer with 1-1/4 Inch Hitch
Question:
I have a Montana 5th wheel with a 1 1/4inch hitch receiver that is bolted to the frame of the 5th wheel no bumper. I am looking for a rack to carry 2 aluminum frame bikes - one male and one girls style bike. I really want a platform style and not a hanging style. What rack do you offer that is rated for a 5th wheel with a 1 1/4inch recepticle?

Expert Reply:
There are no bike racks for fifth wheel hitches compatible with a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch receiver. You would need to add a 2" hitch like the # BA-100 that will bolt onto an RV bumper, or the more traditional # UF35-946403 which will weld onto a C-channel or traditional 5th wheel frame.
Once you have a 2" hitch on your 5th wheel, you could use the RV approved Yakima LongHaul 4-bike rack # Y02476.
