The best option for a platform bike rack that is approved for use on the back of your 5th wheel trailer is from Swagman:

- Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack # S94FR

This is the best option for a number of reasons, starting with the fact it can carry just about any bike due to it's frame-mounted design and the fact it has a whopping 70 lb per bike capacity, which speaks to just how strong this rack is. The E-Spec also has large wheel holders to make loading bikes easier, and the holders slide so you can get bikes of different sizes in the perfect position.

The other great thing about the E-Spec is the fact it has locks for the ratcheting hooks as well as the hitch pin so your bikes and the rack are protected. The rack works with bikes that have tires up to 3 inches wide, but you can add fat tire adapters if your tires are up to 5 inches wide with the Fat Tire Adapter Kit # S64679.

I have added a photo a customer sent in showing the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack # S94FR on the back of their 5th wheel, as well as a link below to a video review of the rack being used on a 5th wheel.
