2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch at Rear of Forrest River R-Pod Trailer
Question:
We have an Rpod 178 and want to carry 2 mountain style bikes via the 1 1/4inch hitch where the spare tire is positioned. Forrest River refers to an optional 2 bike rack but does not provide any details as to brand, model number, dealers, etc. What do you handle that is compatible with our trailer? I have noticed that Thule and others do not want their products used on the back of travel trailers with specific warnings. Please advise.

Helpful Expert Reply:
A bike rack must go through additional testing to be approved for use at the back of a motor home or trailer. We do not offer a bike rack that is designed to fit a 1-1/4 inch hitch at the back of a trailer.
The Thule # TH903202 that you referenced is an excellent rack, but it is only rated for a car, truck, SUV, or van. Using it on a trailer, could cause its components to fail.
