The Thule Camber 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Steel # TH9058 is a newer rack with upgraded Hide-away Anti-Sway cradles with a ratcheting strap for easier loading. The Camber has a weight capacity of 37.5 lbs per bike versus the 35 lbs of previous models. There is a generous 7" of space between the bikes to help them travel without contact. The cradles are also attached to the bars because the older style cradles like the Roadway had could move during travel causing contact under some conditions. I recommend going with the Camber, it is a great carrier.
I recommend upgrading to the locking hitch pin # THSTL2 to secure your investment and then use a cable lock like # e98891 to secure your bikes to the rack and the safety chain loops of your trailer hitch receiver.
I also suggest you consider the Swagman Deluxe Bike Frame Adapter Bar for Women's, Children's, and Alternative Frame Bikes # 64005 for any step-thru frames for level transpor.
