Question:
Is this bumper rack sturdy enough that it wont bend under the weight of the bikes. We have two adult bikes to carry.

This Clamp-On RV Bumper Hitch Receiver, part # S64025, is constructed of solid steel and designed to fit 4 inch by 4 inch bumpers. Its load capacity is 200 lbs which should be plenty strong to hold two bikes and the weight of the bike carrier. You will want to check with the RV manufacturer to make sure you never exceed the bumper weight capacity on your RV.
This receiver should not be used with aluminum or spot welded bumpers. It is not designed for cargo carriers or for towing. I have attached a link to a product review video for this receiver.
