Solution for Carrying Recumbent Trike
Question:
Do you handle a recumbent trike carrier?

Expert Reply:
I really wish we did but the closest thing we have is a roof setup like the SeaSucker Trike # 298-BD1005. This does come in separate pieces so you won't have to worry about how long your recumbent is - just attach the front and rear ends of the carrier an appropriate distance away from each other to match your bike.
I realize lifting a recumbent trike up onto the roof of your vehicle is probably not your first choice, but our only other non-trailer solution would be a larger hitch-mounted cargo carrier like the Reese # 63153. This particular carrier measures 60" long and 24" wide.
