Expert Reply:
Because the diameter of the wheels also determines the wheelbase, a rack like the Swagman # S80605 wouldn't be a good choice unless the bikes are of similar sizes. In order to make both bikes fit, you'd need to adjust each portion of the rack so that both bikes barely fit, which wouldn't be very stable. A better alternative would be a ladder rack like part # LA-102.
If you can install a receiver, there are some other options. The Swagman # S64663 would work well if you have a 4 inch square continuously welded steel bumper on your camper. You'll also want to find out the weight capacity of the bumper from the manufacturer.
