Hitch and E-Bike Rack for Rear of 5th Wheel Camper

Question

Question:

We have purchased 2 heavy electric bikes. We double tow our 5th wheel camper and an 8’x10’ trailer with our SxS on it. We are thinking of purchasing your Hollywood E-bike Rack and putting it on the back of the HandH trailer. Thanks.

For an RV approved e-bike rack the Hollywood Racks RV Rider part # HLY64FR would work great at the rear of your camper trailer. For a hitch the best option is the Curt RV Multi Fit hitch part # 13703 which fits frame widths of between 22 and 72 inches of all styles.
