How to Carry 2 Bikes on a Trailer Hitch Cargo Carrier
Question:
Can the cargo carrier be used to transport 2 bikes without a separate bike carrier? If so, what would you recommend to secure the bikes in the carrier?
asked by: Sue
Expert Reply:
You can use ratchet straps like the Erickson Easy Ratchet Tie-Downs # EM34410 to secure bikes to the etrailer Cargo Carrier # e98874.
Another option is to get a cargo carrier with a bike rack, like the Stromberg Carlson 23x60 Cargo Carrier # CC-100 with the adapter # CC-125.
