    Question Bike Rack Recommendation

    Due to the wide variety of bike racks and the unique shape of RVs it’s not a simple task to select a camper bike rack. Bike racks can vary in the number bikes and types of bikes they can accommodate. Also they are not compatible with all types of vehicles. So in order to search for the best RV...

    RVing with E-Bikes

    To save others the hunt, that one is 88 lbs. My Trek Powerfly 4 is in the 40-45 lb range, it is painful to put on/off the rack. While I really enjoy the e-bike I really also enjoy my Trek Marlin 7 non e-bike. It's lightweight and a joy to ride. I have a little regret in getting the e-bike unless...

    Question Put a bike rack on the back of transend trailer. Is it ok

    You might want to make sure your bicycle carrier is recommended to be mounted on a towed trailer/vehicle. Many manufacturers will void any warranty if it is not rated. Can Hitch Mounted Bike Racks be Used on the Back of a Flat Towed Vehicle | etrailer.com. Darrell

    Bike Rack Between MH and Toad

    Ok, this may not be made any longer, but if anyone knows of a bike rack which can mount on the tow bar, or an extension of the tow bar which will allow bikes to be carried. Please send links in reply. Found some years ago, think swagman is the only one, and theirs dont look heavy enough...

    Alert WARNING: Using a bike cover while on a bike rack while driving can KILL someone

    Hello, my name is Darwin Neal. Today I asked myself a question I often wondered if I'd ever ask myself: "Where did my bike go?" Today I left Vegas northbound for an absolutely spectacular drive. On I-15N taking in the amazing views of snowcovered mountains and driving through old stomping...

    I bought a Thule Easy Fold XT 2. It was one of a very few that were rated to carry our two e bikes on our toad (Jeep JK). The carrier works great but hitch tensor (the part you tighten to make sure there is no wobble) was junk. I almost lost our bikes twice because the threads on the...

    Bike rack recommendation for long-hauling four bikes

    I’ve found that etrailer.com has good reviews and recommendations on bike racks for RV vehicles. We purchased a bike rack for 2 bikes from them. Finding a bike rack for 4 bikes would be more difficult.

    FYI Tow bar sway - quiet hitch

    I use them on my hitch as pictured and to take up the slack on my bike rack. I like everything riding on a hitch as tight as possible

    New to me jeep

    We had our Cherokee wired for a toad. The wiring harness they used had an additional 4 pin connector for the light bar I added to the bike rack. We used the stay and play braking system so I could control the level of surge before the jeep brakes come on. It isn’t going to help stop 38k much...

    RVing with E-Bikes

    We also look for trails near our travels. There are so many that we would have had to pass up had we not invested in our e bikes. Many that we would have passed up even before our e bikes now are easy to ride, One of the most amazing was San Gabriel Canyon Road AKA Rt 39 not far from San...

    EBikes

    For anyone shopping for an e-bike be sure to understand the weight of the bike and that you'll need to be able to load/unload it. Some bike racks offer ramps. These bikes are significantly heavier than traditional non e-bikes.

    Bike rack recommendation for long-hauling four bikes

    Thank you for the excellent response, David. A lot has happened since my original post and I ended up going with a 1up USA super duty rack. https://www.1up-usa.com/product/2in-super-duty-double-bike-rack/ It's more expensive than most other racks but it's really high quality and SO easy to use...

    Question Bike Rack Recommendation

    I like our Thule 2.... It's a solid bike rack https://www.thule.com/en-us/bike-rack/hitch-bike-racks/thule-t2-classic-2---2-_-1689772

    Bike rack options?

    We've been happy with this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09T9BCPNS/?tag=rvf01-20 120# capacity, sturdy and easy on/off. If we're hauling our toad and bikes.. the bike rack goes on the Jeep. Going by carrying capacity, many racks are light weight. Put them on the rear of a coach where...

    RVing with E-Bikes

    The e-bikes are compelling for sure. They look like a ton of fun! One question I have is what is the best way to carry them? Do you use a bike rack on the back of your toad? Are there special bike racks for e-bikes?

    We use a 1-up rack for our bikes. Rated for behind RV or Toad, etc. Also weight rated for E-bikes. They have a bunch of models with different weight ratings or fat tires etc.

    RVing with E-Bikes

    Our bikes are around 60lbs (Specialized Tero) but they enable me to take longer rides and still get back to base in reasonably good shape without a struggle. I search for camping areas near trails and take as many 10-20miles rides as possible. The real limiting thing for me is that my hands get...
