• Will the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Clear My Spare Tire on My Jeep Wrangler?
  Yes! Our part number # HLY64FR is the same as the Hollywood Racks part number HR1700. These both correspond to the Hollywood Racks RV Rider. As far as clearing your spare tire on your Jeep Wrangler, there is a definite way to tell if you have enough clearance with the rack installed on your hitch (if you have a hitch receiver). Since the shank of the RV Rider measures 7-1/2" from the center of the shank's pinhole to the closest part of the rack, you have the ability to make a measurement...

• Comparing Swagman E-Spec and Current Bike Racks for an SUV and a Ram ProMaster RV
  You have a great eye. Both the Swagman E-Spec # S94FR and the Swagman Current # S64678 are super strong bike racks that are constructed for brute strength. This is because Swagman wanted both of these racks to be approved for use when attached to the back of motorhomes/RVs. However, the E-Spec has the advantage of strength because not only can the E-Spec withstand the extra force/torque exerted on it on the back of a motorhome/RV, it also can withstand the increased force when mounted on...

• Yakima OnRamp or Thule EasyFold XT for Low-Step E-bike
  Good news! My friend AJ's video is finally up and you can see him review the Yakima OnRamp #Y36FR in the video I attached below. I love your description of a road narwhal. If you're worried about the extra length behind your vehicle with a folded bike rack, I recommend the new Yakima OnRamp # Y96FR. In the video, AJ doesn't get into exact measurements since they're vehicle/hitch specific and he was doing a more general review, but I attached picture comparisons of the two bike racks you're...

• Bumper Mounted Bike Rack to Clear Spare Tire on 2019 Rockwood Roo Travel Trailer
  The distance from center of hitch pin hole to edge of first upright arm on the # S64663 is 10-1/2 inches. However, the distance to first wheel hoop is only 8 inches. You may still be able to use this rack as long as you can slide your spare tire to either side (Fig 1), this is what most of our customers actually do and it's worked very well. The Swagman # S64663 is designed to be used on continuously welded, 4 - 4-1/2 inch tall, steel RV bumpers. If relocating the spare tire along the...

• Will the RV Rider # HLY64FR Work for My 2 E-Bikes on My Fifth-Wheel with a Rear Ladder?
  Yes - the Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches # HLY64FR is the same as model HR1700. We here at etrailer usually have different part numbers than the bike rack manufacturer. With the ladder at the middle of your 2022 Grand Design Reflection 341RDS, there is a way to know for sure if the rack does not interfere with the RV Rider when folded up. The measurement you need to conduct is from the center of your hitch pin hole to the furthest outward point of...

• Recommended Front Mounted Bike Rack For Ford E450 Van Chassis
  We do offer several types of bike carriers designed and rated for use on the front of an RV, including the platform style such as the Swagman Dispatch # S44FR. This carrier features a folding upright mast that allows you access to the vehicle cargo area when the rack is unloaded. All RV-rated bike racks for 2-inch hitches are shown on the linked page. The Swagman Dispatch # S44FR is a great choice for an RV rack. It includes locks for both the rack itself and your loaded bikes; its independent...

• 3-Bike Trunk Rack Recommendation for a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica
  Definitely! For a great 3-bike trunk rack for your 2018 Chrysler Pacifica, I recommend the Yakima HangOut 3 Bike Rack # Y02638. This rack comes with a 35 pound per-bike weight capacity (90 pound maximum overall capacity). It also comes with anti-sway cradles that eliminate the tendency for bike movement during transport. As far as locks, the best and most economical way to lock the rack and the bikes is by purchasing the passive security strap # Y02623 along with the etrailer cable lock...

• Adapter for low Step-Through Frame E-Bike to fit Bike Rack
  The perfect solution for you to carry your EVELO Luna with the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE 2-Bike Carrier for Electric Bicycles # HLY84FR would be to use an adapter bar which attaches between your seat post and handlebar stem to create a horizontal mounting point. You can see exactly what it does in the photo I've attached for you. The bar you want is going to depend on the length between your seat post and handlebar stem; the Swagman Deluxe # 64005 is adjustable from 24 3/8" to 33...

• Recommend Trunk Mount Bike Rack for Carrying an Electra Townie on a 2010 Toyota Prius
  I do have a trunk mount bike rack option available for your 2010 Toyota Prius, however, the Hollywood Racks Gordo part # HRG2 is not a confirmed fit. For a bike rack that is a confirmed fit and will work well with your Electra Townie, I recommend using the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH45JV. The OutWay is my number one choice for trunk bike racks. It is the easiest to install because it uses only 2 rubbeer-coated straps instead of the 4-6 straps of other carriers. It comes...

• Best Spare Tire Mounted Bike Rack Comparison Thule Vs Yakima
  The Thule Spare Me Bike rack part # TH963PRO and the Yakima Spare Tire part # Y02599 both do come with locks to secure the rack to your spare tire and cable locks to secure the bikes to the carrier. The biggest difference between the two and is only an advantage for some people is that the Yakima can fit on spare tires that are up to 12.5 inches wide whereas the Thule can only fit tires that are up to 10 inches wide. Aside from that the only actual feature that the Yakima has that the Thule...

• Recommended 2 Bike Rack For 2013 Honda Fit Sport Where Trunk Mounted Racks Wont Fit
  I reached out to my contact at Thule and they confirmed they do not have any fits for your 2013 Honda Fit Sport Model. They said the reason is the factory spoiler is not strong enough to support the straps. All of our manufacturers exclude the Sport model for this reason. My recommendation is to use the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11064 and then use the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack # TH92BJ which is a confirmed fit along with the support strap...

• Installation of Trailer Hitch Receiver 75676 on 2014 Lexus 450h
  The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75676 is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Lexus RX 450h. We do not have any videos of the RX450h with that particular hitch receiver, but I have added the video of the installation of the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13143 which is also a fit to assist.

• RV Bike Rack Recommendation for a Class B RV
  I will be happy to help. The first piece of information that will help you choose a bike rack is that not all bike racks can be used on RVs, even if it is a Class B RV. On RVs and trailers, there is excess bouncing and movement at the trailer hitch. Most hitch mount bike racks cannot handle the excess bouncing and would likely fail during your trip causing expensive damages. We do have several bike racks that are rated for use on a RV. I have attached a link to these bike racks for you...

• What 4-Bike Bike Rack do You Recommend for My 2021 Grand Design Fifth-Wheel Trailer?
  I have the answer! You are 100% correct when saying that the Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches # S64665 is rated for motorhomes and not fifth-wheel. The reason why is because there is much more force/torque exerted on the rear of a fifth-wheel than a motorhome. Unfortunately, the XTC4 does not work on a fifth-wheel trailer application. Also, even if the XTC4 could work, there is only a 3-1/2" distance between the center of the shank's pinhole to the closest part of the rack...

• Recommended Dual Hitch Adapter For 2017 Kia Sorento for Bike Rack and Pop-up Trailer
  Your 2017 Kia Sorento has a towing capacity of 2,000 to 5,000 lbs depending on what motor and transmission you have. I recommend checking your owner's manual to make sure you are within the manufacturer's specifications. For a trailer hitch, I recommend the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75908. This will give you a 2 inch opening that will allow you to use the Malone 2" Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver # MPG544. This will allow you to tow your...

• Trunk Mounted Bike Rack Compatible with 2016 Volvo XC90 Spoiler
  On your 2016 Volvo XC90 if you have a roof rack you can use the Hollywood Racks Over-The-Top Trunk Bike Rack # HRF2 or # HRF2-3. I confirmed this with the manufacturer. We don't list the fit in our guide because it requires the rails for a fit. If you don't have a roof side rails then you will need to add a roof rack to your flush mounted rails to use that rack. The # RRVA126B-2 and # RRSX040 are my recommendation. If you have the raised factory side rails then you don't need to add...

• Hitch Bike Rack Recommendation for 2016 Winnebago View Class C Motorhome
  I have a bike rack that will work for you, but I cannot recommend the Kuat Sherpa # SH22G for use on your 2016 Winnebago View. Kuat does not approve the use of their Sherpa 2.0 - or other bike racks - on motorhomes or camper trailers. A bike rack is put under a lot more torque and stress when used at the back of a motorhome or camper when compared to being used on a vehicle. Kuat has not tested and designed their bike racks for use under these more strenuous environments. There are not...

• How do I Transport a Honda Grom, a Scooter, and 2 Bikes on My Class C Motorhome?
  As far as mounting your Honda Grom and your scooter to your 2019 Winnebago 22R motorhome, we unfortunately do not have a traditional bike rack that will work for the weight of those bikes. However, the best route is to use the Ultra-Fab Dirt Bike Carrier for 2" Hitches - With Ramp - 77" Long # UF48-979033. The Ultra-Fab is RV-approved and will fit motorcycles/scooters up to 500 pounds. In addition, the carrier comes with an included ramp that can be positioned on either end to make for...

• Will the Yakima FullBack Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2018 Honda CR-V
  The Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 will fit your 2018 Honda CR-V as long as it is not a Touring model. This is an excellent choice for a truck mount bike rack because of the adjustability of the arms, easy to use ZipStrip straps, and integrated cable lock. I have linked a video review of this rack for you. If you do have a Touring model then there is a 3-bike rack that will work; the Hollywood Racks Over-The-Top rack # HRF2-3. You will not be able to open the rear hatch with any trunk mount...

• Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2001 Honda Accord Coupe with Spoiler
  Since you don't want a hitch I assume you aren't interested in a roof rack for the same reason so that leaves you with a trunk mount rack. A great trunk mount I like to recommend is the Saris Bones, part # SA805BL. This is a high quality, easy to install rack that's more affordable than some of the others. The arched design is great for spoilers and it's mostly made of plastic making it a lot less susceptible to rust and corrosion. It also has anti-sway cradles. The only thing I don't...

• Compatibility of 3 Bike Rack on 2015 Toyota Prius
  The Reese Q-Slot Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack is a fit for your 2015 Prius but has been discontinued. If you already have the rack it will work very well for you. I recommend using the included pin and clip for a secure fit in the hitch and then using a cable lock like # e98891 to secure your bikes to the rack. The 2 inch receiver only Reese Q-Slot Platform-Style 2 Bike and 4 Bike Rack PS63138 (also discontinued) was a 2 or 4 bike carrier, but would NOT work on your 2015 Toyota Prius...

• Recommended Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2017 BMW X5
  The trunk mount bike rack that I recommend for you to use on your 2017 BMW X5 is the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633. This is a 3 bike rack that comes with both bike and bike rack locks to help prevent theft, plus it has SuperCush anti-sway cradles with ratcheting ZipStrip straps which can accommodate sensitive bike frames like carbon fiber. It also prevents bike-to-bike contact while you are heading down the road and also allows you to fold down the arms when not in use for extra...

  The best bike rack that will carry both an adult bike and a child's bike is the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202; this is the best rack for your 2018 Chevy Traverse, as well as any other vehicle with a 1-1/4 inch or 2 inch hitch receiver. The reason the EasyFold XT is the best bike rack in the industry is simple - convenience. It comes with an aluminum ramp so you can easily load any bike and because it uses arms that can be repositioned as well as ratcheting wheel straps. This means it will...

• Recommended Thule 3 Bike Rack Compatible With Class 1 Hitch On 2008 Honda Accord
  The Thule Helium Aero Pro 3-Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Aluminum # TH9043PRO is the only Thule 3 bike carrier that is rated as compatible with Class I trailer hitch receivers, however the manufacturer will limit the rack to two bikes on a Class I trailer hitch. This is a really nice bike rack with the built in anti-rattle as well as the one-key system to secure the rack to your receiver and the cable lock to secure your bike to the rack itself. I recommend using the...
