Need A Carrier For An Adult Recumbent Trike
Question:
I am a disabled Veteran and ride a modified recumbent trike for exercise. Can you recommend a carrier for my trike that will work with your hitch receiver that will be installed on my car? Thanks again,

I may have a solution. We can use the24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for 2" Hitches - Steel - Tilting - Folding - 500 lbs # e98874 to be able to carrier your modified recumbent trike. You can fit your bike in long ways but it will have some over hang side to side, but with some padding and straps you could get your bike safely from A to B.
If you are able to lift the bike onto and off the roof you could instead use the SeaSucker Roof Bike Rack for Trikes - Wheel Mount - Vacuum Cup Mounted Item # 298-BD1005.
If not then my only other option would be a trailer but that is not very cost effective.
