I have an older Tour Easy, appears to be 72 front wheel center to back wheel center. Will this rack fit?

Expert Reply:
In order to carry a recumbent bike you need a special type of carrier as most standard options like the Swagman XC-Extended Bike Rack for 2 Recumbent Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount# S64650-EXT, but it only accommodates wheelbases up to 69 inches and yours is 72".
Instead, you can use a small utility trailer like the Detail K2 Mighty Multi # K2MMT4X6 that is 72" long or the # K2MMT5X7 that is 88" long.
