Can Rack Lock Be Added to Rhino-Rack Hanging Style 2 Bike Rack
Question:
Does this come with a lock for the anti-rattle screw on the hitch receiver?
asked by: Bryson
Expert Reply:
The Rhino-Rack 2 Bike Rack # RRRBC045 doesn't come with bike or rack locks and since the only way to accomplish this is by wrapping a cable lock like part # e98891 around the bikes, rack, and trailer hitch I recommend checking out a different bike rack instead.
For a cost-effective bike rack alternative you can use the Swagman Trailhead # S63360 which can be locked to the vehicle with part # S64029. You will still need a cable lock like part # e98891 to lock the bikes though.
For a 2-bike rack that comes with both bike and rack locks I recommend checking out the Thule Apex XT # TH9024XT which is definitely more of a premium option but it does look a bit more sleek and comes with easy-to-use tilting/folding features as well as integrated locks so you don't have to keep track of anything else.
