Recommended 4 Bike Rack for Use on Back of Motorhome That Won't Require Frame Adapters
Question:
Hello, I am looking for a bike rack that will hold four bikes and is designed for a motor home. I was considering the Yakima long haul model bu have concerns if it will fit my family’s four different bikes. Do you have any thoughts on the Yakima model or have any other suggestions. Thank you

You're correct that hanging racks aren't always the best solution to carry a variety of bikes that you might encounter with a family of 4, so I instead recommend using the Hollywood Racks Destination 4 # HR4000 because it will allow you to carry bikes with a variety of different frames. The Desination 4 has padded frame holders on the posts that rotate 360 degrees to provide you with the flexibility you're looking for without having to use frame adapters that would be required when using the Yakima Long Haul # Y02476.
The Desination 4 comes with a hitch lock to secure the rack to your motor home, but no locks for the bikes onto the rack, so I do recommend adding a cable lock like the Fulton # FCLK150100 to help keep everything secure.
I've linked a review video of the Destination 4 that I highly recommend checking out, as well.
