There is not a Thule EasyFold XT Bike Rack # TH903202 rated for use on an RV rear hitch. Instead we do have the Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack # Y36FR which also holds the bike in place by frame clamps and has a ramp to assist in loading your bikes. This can be used in the rear 2" trailer hitch receiver on a motorhome, 5th wheel or travel trailer to carry 2 bikes up to 40lbs each.

We also have the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack # Y87VR which is able to carry up to 2-60lb bikes behind an RV. While it does not include a ramp we do have the Loading Ramp # Y39VR which can be used with this rack.

Hey Dave, so the best option for carrying your carbon frame bike and e-bike is the Swagman Escapee part #S39SR with the ramp #S59SR . It has the capacity for carrying an e-bike, is rated for travel trailer use, only touches the bikes by the tires…

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…

Class I and Class II hitches both have a 1-1/4 inch receiver opening. The difference is that a Class I hitch has a lower tongue weight rating, usually 200 pounds and a lower towing rating, usually 2,000 pounds. A Class II hitch usually has a tongue…

As long as the flat tow wiring is wired in before the 4-Way #C93ZV and you connect the power for the converter directly to the battery it will work. I have seen several use Magnetic Lights #TL21RK which they will wire in on the main harness to have…
