XP Extreme Performance Folding Towing 3-Bike Rack for 2" Trailer Hitch Receivers
This innovative model merges towing capabilities with the XP series racks. Its steel construction provides lasting toughness and carries up to three bikes. Cushioned cradles on the arm rotate to keep wheels level to the ground. Additionally, the cradles help provide a scratch-free ride for bikes by using thick kraton vinyl cushioning with large grooves, which prevent bike cables from rubbing on the frame. They also prevent bikes from rocking back and forth during transit. The rack accommodates bikes with up to a 2" diameter frame, and the locking knob allows for a secure and quick unload. The rack tilts forward to allow easy access to the vehicle's rear cargo area. It has a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs. gross trailer weight and 350 lbs. tongue weight.
