The # CC-275 is designed to fit an A-frame trailer frame and will work on frames that are 14 to 55 inches wide. This carrier measures 33-1/2 inches from the top of the trailer frame to the top of the cross tube.

I recommend using a hanging bike carrier like the Swagman Original, part # S64152-2. This bike carrier has a weight capacity of 35-lbs per bike. I have attached a photo of this bike rack being used with the # CC-275 on a trailer behind a pickup truck. As you can see, the bike does clear the truck bed. With this height you should clear your truck when making turns.
