What 2-Bike Bike Rack do You Recommend for My Lance Camper/Trailer?
Question:
Im tying to find a bike rack that will fit the ladder rail on my Lance camper/trailer. Ive tried a few and they arent large enough to go around the hand rail on the ladder. Im looking at the Surco 2 Bike Carrier Item # SP501BR. Can you tell me if this model has an adjustable clasp for the ladder? Thank you!

Expert Reply:
I have an answer about the clamps. Unfortunately, on the Surco 2 Bike Carrier for Van/RV Ladders # SP501BR, the mounting brackets that are designed to attach to the ladder rail are non-adjustable. They are designed to clamp around 1-inch diameter tubing. Our other ladder attachment option, the Stromberg Carlson 2 Bike Carrier for RVs - Ladder Mount # LA-102, also has a non-adjustable clamp that is designed for 1-inch diameter tubing.
With that being said, if you have a standard 4 - 4.5 inch square RV bumper, I recommend the Swagman Traveler XC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches or RV Bumpers # S64663. This rack not only comes with a 35-pound per-bike weight capacity, it also is constructed to withstand the extra torque/force when mounted on campers and RVs.
