Which Hanging Bike Rack has the Widest Distance Between the Arms?
Question:
Which 2-arm, hanging, 2-inch hitch rack for 4 bikes has the widest distance between the arms, and what is that width?
asked by: Jacob B
Expert Reply:
The dual-arm hanging bike rack with the widest distance between the arms is the Curt 4 Bike Rack # C18030, which is 16 inches (measured outside to outside at the cradles). This rack has a 1-1/4 inch shank but comes with an adapter sleeve for use in a 2 inch hitch.
It features anti-sway cradles, an anti-rattle hitch pin and a tilting mast for access to your cargo area.
If you have a bike with a sloping or step-through frame, you would need the Bike Frame Adapter Bar # 64005. I have included links to video reviews of each of these products for you.
