Rotating Arms with Ratcheting Hooks
The MonoRail has ratcheting hooks that grab your bikes firmly by the front wheel - not the frame. It's perfect for carrying carbon bikes or bikes with a custom paint job. To load a bike, simply place your front wheel in the cradle, rotate the arm up and over the wheel, and press down firmly on the ratcheting hook.
Pivoting Rear Wheel Cradles
The rear wheel cradles accommodate a wide variety of bike wheelbases. They pivot front to back, adjusting automatically to each bike's wheelbase - no need for sliding and tightening. Secure the wheels in place with the built-in ratcheting strap. The straps also include extenders for use with fat bikes.
Adjustable Bike Trays
The front and back trays adjust 3" side-to-side to ensure you have enough space when loading your bikes. Just remove the bolts where the tray attaches to the bottom of the rack, slide the trays left or right to achieve the desired spacing, and then reinstall the bolts. This will prevent your bikes' handlebars from becoming tangled, and it eliminates the fear of bike-to-bike contact.
Front-Mounted Release Lever for Easy Tilting
The rack tilts down - with or without bikes loaded - so you can access your vehicle's rear cargo area. Because the tilt-release lever is located at the front of the rack, you don't have to worry about crawling through bikes or squeezing between the rack and the vehicle to pull it. When you raise the rack back up, you'll hear a click to indicate it's secure.
When the rack is unloaded you can pull the lever to fold it up for storage. This means you don't have to remove it to park in small lots at the trail head or in cramped parking garages.
Easy Installation
It installs with a threaded, anti-rattle hitch pin. Simply slide the shank into your 2" hitch receiver, insert the threaded hitch pin, and tighten it down with the included tool. This will reduce noise and movement while the rack is installed.
Complete Security
Included locks secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. The integrated cable lock threads around your bikes' frames and inserts into the lock that slides along the cable.
The hitch lock simply snaps onto the hitch pin and locks in place. The cable and hitch lock are keyed alike, so you'll only need 1 key for both locks.
Optional 1-Bike Add-On
An optional 1-bike add-on (sold separately) allows you to convert the rack from a 2-bike carrier to a 3-bike carrier. This is great for occasions when an extra friend wants to tag along.

At age 75, I have purchased many bike racks over the years…..this one has no equal in loading and unloading…
by: John02/09/2024
This rack is really, good. The only thing i add to make it better is small strap that holds the front wheel to the front wheel bracket. I never had a problem with it, but i like to make sure it is secure. It is a solid bike rack and worth every penny. I would buy this over the Kuat version any day.
by: Mark-Indianapolis05/09/2021
This thing is rock solid. Once I figured out the directions and put it on my 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee is was so impressed with how stable it was. With two hybrid bikes on the platform rack it didn't even wiggle in the slightest! The only negative comment I can make was in lack of information in the directions. I had the platforms backwards and didn't know it until I tried to fold the rack completely up. I reviewed the directions again and no mention or illustration is available. However the fix wasn't that hard and it now functions exactly like the videos. Customer service from etrailer was remarkable though both times I called I thought the wait time was a little long. I would recommend this product and this retailer to anyone. Great service, great product!

Have had this product for a year now and I stand by my earlier review. By far one of the best if not the best bike rack on the market. We drove from Indianapolis to Upstate New York last fall and the rack performed great. Would recommend this product to anyone.
by: Terry 03/13/2024
Easy to place in the receiver and is very sturdy, confidently carries 2 55+ pound e-bikes; bikes do not have fenders, so tire clamps and straps work great, bikes are easy to load and unload. Very happy with the rack.
by: Rick02/13/2018
Well built, solid bike rack. Like the additional strap extensions for fat bikes. Holds bike well. Only minor issue was that instructions did not reference the rear wheel straps, but easy to figure out. I like that the rack tilt allows access to the rear hatch of my Subaru Forester.

working out great. Had issue with partial melt of one of the shepards hook melting due to proximity to my car exhaust. Able to get new part from manufacturer, repositioned hook, and all has been well since
by: Allen05/18/2021
It was very easy to assemble the MonoRail 2. All of the parts were in the box and nothing was damaged. I would recommend etrailer to purchase from as they were the only ones to have this bike rack. Also I would recommend the MonoRail as well.

I really like the Rockymounts Monorail 2 but I also have a slight problem with it as well. But the problem that I have is going to go will all hitch type racks. The problem that I have is with the backup sensors so I bought the 53201 Curt Auxiliary LED Indicator Lights and some magnets top attach it to the rack. If I were to say anything is that I think all bike racks should come with something to plug to prevent the sensors from going off. there then that the rack is gray and I have had no problems with it at all. This is a great rack for the money.
by: Dan M06/16/2018
Exceptionally solid hitch mount / tray platform type bicycle carrier. I
The instructions were very clear and complete - with one exception of the the tray straps and strap extenders (not shown/mentioned). Some basic assembly was required - again the directions were very clear and everything need was supplied in the package. I took my time and it only took 15 minutes.
The bike rack is outstanding in design, quality of materials, construction and function. It's very solid in all 3 positions (carrying bikes, laid 'down' to open the tailgate, and 'stowed' in the up/close position when not carrying bikes.
I've had bike racks from other 'big name' vendors - this Rocky Mounts rack is much better, and less expensive.
by: Daniel03/22/2022
This rack is Rock Solid!! I live in Michigan and we travel to the Smoky Mountains for a week every September, since buying this rack we are now able to bring our bikes along with us. It works like a champ!! Not one issue with it going there or coming back, we've used it to go to some Metroparks to ride there as well. I have a Ram 2500 pickup and the tilt feature on the rack allows me to completely open my tailgate without hitting the rack or the bikes! It's a great rack and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality rack.

Its been a year since I last reviewed this rack. I just love this bike rack. The cabin we annually rent in Gatlinburg has a steep bumpy twisty driveway to get to the cabin on the side of a mountain. The rack holds up great, the bikes dont budge. Best investment Ive made regarding bike racks.
by: Al04/21/2021
Very well made. Much easier to load bikes than the hanging rack we used before.

After using our bike rack all last summer and fall have not had any issues with it. Very satisfied. Ease of use, keeps our bikes very stable and especially like can it down with bikes loaded and still access the truck bed. Would definitely recommend. Would buy again.
by: Rob12/24/2021
I ordered it for my girlfriend and she HAD to use it the 2nd day because she was so excited. It wasn't hard to build, there were only 3 main pieces but 5 total and the tools come with the kit. Her first test go went great, she was extremely happy with it and that she could finally get into the trunk of her SUV with the bikes still on the bike. Only concern is the locking mechanisms, they are cheap so I'll find a better way to lock the rack and bikes to the vehicle. Otherwise, as always,thanks for the great service etrailer. I would purchase again if needed!

Easy to assemble nice quality. Bikes are very solid on rack.

Great bike rack. Works well for both fat bikes and skinny tired bikes. It is a bit tight on fat bike 27.5 tires. Wish the uprights were an inch longer.
by: Bobby 05/16/2024
well built, easy to assemble. one part arrived broken but contacted customer service and they immediately sent a replacement. excellent customer service.
by: Jeff04/20/2022
Excellent rack. Didn't think through the fact that I had to take the front fender off my bike for the rack to work. Outside of that, the rack is solid, holds bikes securely, and is a great value.

Great rack. Ive used a Kuat...it is more elegant and, for the price and carrying capacity, Im very happy with the RockyMounts rack. Driven lots of miles with bikes on it...no problems at all. The release mechanism to raise and lower the rack is great. A really good product.
by: Ray09/15/2021
Easy assembly. Since this is made here in Colorado (USA), the assembly tools provided actually fit the bolts and work as intended. My only issue is even with bikes off the rack you can not open the tail gate on a jeep. Will need to completely remove rack from hitch to do so. Bike mounting is easy although the supplied locks feel a little flimsy.
by: Richard02/09/2020
Awesome product. Easy to assemble and install in hitch.

Hitch is awesome and great quality
by: Robyn 09/03/2022
Great bike rack! Well worth the money for securing bikes on the long RV treks around the country. The only negative is that arms that grab the tire tend to rub against the frame and take off paint when traveling so far.

Love it! Absollutely no complaints! Been driving around with it on the RV or towed vehicle for a year now and very happy with it. It even fits a recumbent bike

I ordered a tilting Rocky Mount bike rack from etrailer.com. After receiving notification of the ship date of the bike rack, I realized that the product wasn’t going to arrive until after a bike trip I had planned, I spoke to Jenny, a representative from etrailer.com. She worked with me in selecting another model that would be available and arrive in time for my trip. I am impressed by the professionalism and service excellence I received from my phone experience at etrailer.com.

The service and the representatives were great! The Rocky Mounts monorail bike rack has worked great!

It has held up well, I am happy with the product
by: David04/19/2022
The rack came damaged and could not be assemble without first repairing the damage. The mounting bracket for one of the cross arms was bent (see photo) which prevented the cross arm from being installed. The bend had to be hammer out straight before the cross arm could be installed, which also cause the area of repair to need repainting.
Otherwise, the rack appears to be functional and well built.
The website specs for the rack list its weight as 38 pounds, but the actual weight is 45 pounds.
by: Julie05/19/2024
I am so happy. The rack is everything I hoped it would be. Sturdy, Secure, and well Built. I searched etrailer about my specific car. And found the information I was looking for from an etrailer expert. So I was pretty confident this rack would work. Assembly direction were very clear. All the parts fit perfectly. I loaded it and took it for a test drive. I'm really pleased. Initially, I was a little concerned because somebody, somewhere, was having an off day and I was sent an awning instead of the rack. But their customer service was fantastic. They overnighted my rack on a weekend! I'm so excited for my trip to Arizona. I thought I wasn't going to be able to bring my bike... These guys are great. I will recommend them to everyone.
by: mark08/10/2020
The rack took almost 2 months to arrive due to backorder issues. However,we were pleased with the easy assembly. We have used several times and are comfortable with the rack. We are planning a trip with our grandson and will let him help assemble the addon so we can carry his bike as well.
by: Frank04/21/2021
The hitch went on well. Both bikes fit and are secure. Great follow up from etrailer.
by: Joseph07/27/2023
Gift to my daughter, she loved it, her and a friend take her car to bike trail because this bike rack is easy for them to load and offload. Well Engineered for ease of use.

- Comparing Curt and Draw-Tite Trailer Hitches For Carrying Bike Rack On 2015 Jeep Grand CherokeeSince both the Curt Trailer Hitch # C13065 and the Draw-Tite # 75699 you were looking at for your 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee have the same 500lb tongue weight rating and 5000lb trailer weight rating I recommend going with the Curt hitch. This is due to the Curt hitch being made in the USA, and having a tougher powder coat finish which keeps it looking better, longer. Since you will primarily be carrying a bike rack, this hitch is all you will need. It sounds like you already have a bike...

So the diameter works but your tire width is slightly too much. This is a replacement wheel assembly for the Yakima HoldUp Bike Racks # Y02445 and # Y02443. If you are in the market for a bike rack I can make a few recommendations for you. If you like the Yakima design and want to stick with that brand then the Yakima HoldUp EVO is the best choice for you as it accommodates...

We have not tested this on your vehicle so I can't say with absolute certainty, but you can see in the attached video that it does give full access to the trunk on a similarly sized SUV (You can click on the other demonstration videos we have which show the trunk being accessed on various SUV's with this rack).

Instead I recommend the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # S94FR. It has a per bike weight capacity of 70lbs and is rated for use on cars, vans, trucks, SUVs, travel trailers, fifth wheels, motorhomes, and flat towed vehicles. It has padded hooks...
view full answer... - Will the RockyMounts MonoRail Get Melted If Installed On the Back Of A 2021 Toyota RAV4?The RockyMounts MonoRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches # RKY10004 has 12.25" of rise built into it, so it should sit plenty high and away from your exhaust on your 2021 Toyota RAV4 to not be melted. If you get the rack and realize even with the built in rise it's still too close to your exhaust, you could always use an extender # C45791 to push the rack out further. Just know that if you do end up using an extender your hitches maximum weight will be cut by 50%.

Since we only carry 2-inch hitch receivers that will fit your vehicle, you will need the 2-inch version of RockyMounts MonoRail # RKY10004 instead of the 1-1/4 inch version # RKY10003 in order for it to fit into the receiver. For a hitch that is compatible with the front of your 2017 Ford F-150, I recommend the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 65067....

So instead I recommend the version of this rack that has the swing out function to give you complete access with bikes loaded. We had the chance to test fit this on a very similar Nissan Murano (same platform and your QX50) and we found that it fit without any impingement! Check out the review...

There are weight limits for the bike, a total weight limit for the rack, a warranty, etc.. But a towed vehicle introduces other variables, such as extra movement, bounce, and the inability to avoid obstalces, etc. I do have a solution that works for that application. The Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Rack for 2 Bikes, part # Y02479, is a rack that...

First, it is very light weight at just 22-1/2 pounds. That makes it easy to install/remove from the trailer hitch. It can fit 1-1/4 inch (Class II) and 2 inch trailer hitches. It can be locked but you would need to add locking hitch pin # SA3022, sold separately. You will not need an adapter bar for the woman's bike frame. It measures 12 inches from the center of the hitch...
view full answer... - Platform Bike Rack Recommendation for Mountain Bike and Cruiser with FendersFor bikes that have fenders the best solution is a bike rack that grabs the bikes by the frame instead like the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT part # TH92BJ. The tire mount styles of bike racks like the part # RKY10004 grab the front tire right where the fender is which means the wheel mount racks can't be used on fendered bikes. You'd have to put the arm of the rack over the fender which would damage it most likely. The clamps of the DoubleTrack Pro XT are very easy to use and securely attach...

- Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack that Allows Rear Hatch to Open on a 2004 Chevy TahoeI do have some great options that will work with your 2004 Chevy Tahoe but based on my calculations and some information gathered from similar racks it is possible that you will not be able to open the rear hatch on your Tahoe with the RockyMounts MonoRail # RKY10004 tilted. What I recommend is a swing-away rack such as the RockyMounts BackStage 2 # RKY10002. With this style bike rack you can swing the bikes off to the side of the vehicle which will allow you to open the rear hatch. This...

The hook that holds this would easily slip under your basket to grab the tire. This can fit bikes with up to a 29 inch diameter wheel and also carry bikes that weigh up to 60 lbs per bike.

- What is the Distance From Hitch Pin Hole to Edge of Spare Tire on 2005 Toyota RAV4 with Curt HitchThe best way to determine this distance is by measuring the distance from the hitch pin hole to the outer edge of the spare tire; we've actually taken this measurement on the Curt # C13524 and determined that when installed on your 2005 Toyota RAV4 you're going to have 10" from the hitch pin hole on the hitch to the edge of the spare tire. This means you'll need any accessory you use to have at least 10" from the hitch pin hole on the shank of the carrier or bike rack to the closest edge...

That information can be found in your owners manual. So even if Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75902 has a 3,500 pound towing capacity and 350 pound tongue weight capacity, the towing capacity of the vehicle takes precedent. So the lowest of the two numbers is what you go with in regards to towing capacity. So please check the towing capacity...

When loading your bikes, you'll want to make sure that you place the heaviest bike on the part of the carrier closest to the vehicle, so your 55-lbs E-bike will likely need to be the bike occupying that position.

A platform rack will be easier to load/unload the bikes as you don't have to lift them up as high. Another very important distinction to may when comparing a platform and hanging style bike rack is the use of an adapter bar. If you have an alternative or...

When hauling bikes, they will obstruct your vision the most but when you're not hauling bikes the rack will block a decent amount of the camera.There is a rack that will not block your view near as much though, the design of the WestSlope 3 # RKY10222 is a U shape which will leave a lot of your visibility when backing up. I highly recommend going with the WestSlope.
view full answer... - Can I Use A Hitch Adapter To Convert A 1-1/4 Receiver To 2 For The RockyMounts MonoRail?The RockyMounts MonoRail 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches # RKY10004 could technically fit your 2015 Subaru Forester's 1-1/4" receiver when used with the Hitch Adapter # 80303, but using this adapter will reduce your trailer hitch receiver's capacity by 50%. This will likely not allow enough weight capacity for the RockMounts carrier (38lbs) and your two bikes, but it will work if your combined weight will be under 50% weight capacity of your receiver. If your combined weight is going...

When it comes to ease of use another option you might consider is the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202. This...

Curt isn't a huge bike rack manufacturer so I'm not very confident in their recreational products to be honest - when it comes to towing though, Curt is right at the top with others. In regards to bikes wobbling this shouldn't be the case if they were installed properly. You might see the bike rack wobble some during travel but...

Even with your batteries removed, you will still be over the weight limit and it is never recommended to exceed the weight capacity of your bike rack, hitch receiver, or vehicle. If you want to stick with a wheel-mount carrier like the Yakima HoldUp EVo, then I recommend looking into the RockyMounts MonoRail 2 Bike Platform Rack - 2" Hitches # RKY10004. This is a wheel-mount...

You'll need to check your owner's manual to confirm but you likely have a Class I hitch with a 200-lb tongue weight, so using an adapter will only allow you to carry 100-lbs total safely on the hitch.

The front fender would prevent the bike retaining hook from having direct contact with the bike tire immediately forward of the forks, which wouldn't hold the bike in place tightly enough. You'll need to use a rack that holds the bikes from the top frame tube or the seat post tube. The Hollywood Racks...
