Recommended Platform Style Bike Rack Rated For Use On 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
what is your recommended tray type bike carrier to be used with large 5th wheel trailers. My trailer rides pretty smooth, it is a very large heavy one that does not bounce much.

I would be happy to recommend a platform style bike rack for the rear of your 5th wheel trailer.
Even though your trailer rides smooth, trailers bounce more than a vehicle which causes additional stress on the bike rack and will require a bike rack that is rated for use on a trailer.
Since you are looking for a platform style bike rack I recommend the Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # S44FR which is rated for use on a 5th wheel trailer, and will accommodate bikes weighing up to 45lbs each with a tire up to 3" wide.
If you have heavier bikes or bikes with a carbon frame I recommend the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S94FR which is rated for use on any trailer or vehicle, and is able to support two bikes weighing up to 70lbs each with tires up to 3" wide.
I included a video for each of the products for you to take a look at.
