Availability of 3 Bike Ladder or Bumper Mounted Bike Rack for a Class C Motorhome

Question:

I’m looking for a bike rake to haul 3 bikes on a Class C motorhome pulling a tow dolly. The hitch on the motorhome is 20” off the ground and I use a 8” to get the tow dolly to 12” off the ground. Could I use a ladder rack for 3 bikes? Could I use a rake mounted on bumper of motorhome?

We do carry the Swagman 4 Bike Carrier # S80600 which mounts to continuous welded steel square bumpers at least 4" and no more than 4-1/2" wide. The ladder bike rack and other bumper mount options only allow you to carry 2 bikes.

If you have the proper bumper then this is the perfect bike rack for you. It has a weight capacity of 120 lbs (30 lbs per bike) and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.

Please note that this is not for use on aluminum or spot welded bumpers.

You can use a combination of a dual adapter like the Curt # D-192 and the Swagman # S64152-2 but the adapter will reduce the tongue weight of your trailer hitch by 50%.
