Does Lippert Bike Rack Storage System Work With Flat Towing
Question:
Can this be used on a Thor Ave 29.2 in conjunction with falcon system to tow a jeep?

Expert Reply:
While there is a way to carry bikes while flat towing, the Lippert Components Flip Down Slotted Bike Rack Tailgate Storage System # LC243621 won't work as it will interfere with the hitch. So what you would need instead is a simple dual-hitch adapter designed for this very thing; one of the receivers is for flat towing while the other is for carrying a bike rack. You can choose from the rise or drop you need as well:
- 2-1/4" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-2
- 4" Rise/Drop: Roadmaster Dual Hitch Receiver Adapter # RM-077-4
You would also need to use a bike rack like the Thule Camber # TH9058.
