2 Bike Rack Recommendation for Winnebago RV Hitch
Question:
We have a 2 inch hitch on our Winnebago RV. Have you any reservation related to using this hitch on the back of this RV. Thanks

I have a great solution for you but the Curt bike rack part # C18085 is not designed to fit RV hitches so I can't recommend it for you.
At the rear of a trailer or RV the ride quality is very rough when compared to the ride quality at the rear of a passenger vehicle. Reason being the suspension isn't as sophisticated and there is a longer distance between the rear axle and the rear of the trailer which exaggerates the movement of the trailer when hitting bumps. Because of that only a few bike racks were designed to be reinforced enough for that type of use.
For a bike rack that is rated for RV use, I recommend the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR. Even though this is a 4-bike rack, it would be a great option that would work well for you carrying 1-4 bikes. It's at a similar price point as the Curt too.
