Inexpensive 1-1/4 inch Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying 3-4 Bikes
Question:
I have a 2001 VW EuroVan with a Tow Hitch, the smaller version, not the 2 Inch. I need an in-expensive Bike Rack for use with this for 3-4 bikes. What would you suggest? Thanks

Expert Reply:
As long as the hitch on your vehicle is a Class II hitch the Curt Bike Rack part # C18030 would be a great option. This rack can carry up to 4 bikes and has a great price point. I attached a review video for this rack for you to check out as well.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
