How Far Does the Surco Ladder Mount Bike Carrier Stick Out From the Ladder

Question:

How far out from the ladder verticals does can the outside bike be mounted? In other words, how long is the horizontal part of the rack? Im trying to figure if there is a way I can use it to carry a electric trike. The 5th Wheel doesnt have a rear bumper or receiver. Please blur out the license plate if you publish these pictures. That is beyond my technical skills.

I went out to our warehouse and measured the arms of the Surco ladder mount bike carrier, part # SP501BR. From the outer edge of your ladder to the furthest point of the rack is approximately 16 inches.

I've attached a picture to show the dimension as well.
