Specs:
The RV Rider platform-style hitch bike rack makes it simple to carry 2 electric bikes on the rear of your motorhome, fifth wheel, or flat-towed vehicle. This rack is easy to use, and it features padded clamps and adjustable wheel hoops, so you can quickly load and unload your bikes. A locking hitch pin with an anti-rattle system tightens the rack's shank to your hitch receiver to prevent it from rattling around inside the tube.
Locking, Padded Clamps
Constructed of rugged plastic, the RV Rider uses padded clamps with hand knobs to secure your bikes by the frame or seat post. The clamps are easily adjusted along the vertical tubing and lock securely in place. Each clamp functions independently, which means you can position them to carry bikes of different heights.
If you are transporting a carbon fiber bike, do not use the clamp on the frame. Instead, attach the clamp to the seat post to prevent damaging the frame.
Adjustable Wheel Hoops
The wheel hoops accommodate bicycles with wheelbases up to 60" by sliding along the horizontal arms. They secure in place with easy-to-use hand knobs, and ratchet straps fasten the wheels to the hoops. These universal wheel hoops will fit standard and fat tires up to 5" wide.
Folding, Tilting Design
The rack tilts up and down, without bikes loaded, for storage and access to your rear cargo area. To lower the rack, remove the pin, hand knob, and carriage bolt, then tilt the rack down.
To raise the rack, remove the hand knob and carriage bolt, then fold the rack up and reinsert the hardware. After, you can use the hook and loop strap (similar to Velcro) on the frame clamp and connect it to the wheel holder, which helps secure the mast in place.
Easy Installation with Locking Hitch Pin
The RV Rider easily installs in the hitch with the locking hitch pin. Just slide the shank into your receiver, insert the hitch pin, and attach the lock pod. The locking pin works as an anti-wobble device to eliminate sway and rattle in the receiver. It also comes with a hitch tightener to help reduce vertical wobble by pressing the shank against the receiver. It attaches to the top or bottom of the flange on your receiver using a U-bolt and clamp bar.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The RV Rider comes with locks for both the rack and your bikes to deter theft. The lock pod on the hitch pin, lock cores in the frame clamps, and the 8' long security cable lock are conveniently keyed alike.

Bring your electric bikes to the campsite so you can motor around the trails. Works with motorhomes, 5th wheel trailers, and flat-towed vehicles. Fits 2 standard or fat tire e-bikes. Anti-rattle hitch pin and hitch tightener reduce rack movement.We picked this bike rack because it was rated for ebikes, and supports them on a towed vehicle behind a motorhome. The assembly was easy and putting the bikes on the rack and securing them is easy as well. Great bike rack, highly recommended.
Daryl - 04/10/2021The hitch was straight forward in the assembly. Functioned nicely with my two Model Rs from Electric Bike Company, total weight of two bikes is 120 lbs. I have it on the back of my Jeep Wrangler for flat towing behind the RV.
Douglas - 07/25/2021I really like this rack. Very sturdy for our ebikes. My only comment would be I wish the instructions were a little easier. I would definitely recommend.
Cheryl - 08/15/2021We waited nearly 5 months for this RV Rider rack. We had been using an inexpensive 200 lb rated ebike rack from [superstore] for about a year. However that [superstore] rack was not RV rated as most are not. The inexpensive rack got us through until this Hollywood rack arrived. Man what a difference! This new rack is BEEFY! It is obviously more substantial and I have no fear hanging our expensive ebikes on the back of our 5th wheel camper. We haven't used it on the 5th wheel yet but did on our Tahoe and the bikes were much more stable than with the [superstore] rack. From the integrated wheel straps, locking knobs and locking hitch pin this rack will make the whole bike hauling experience faster and more secure. My wife and I researched the heck out of a suitable rack for our camper and this one was worth waiting for.
Over priced rack. Wheel straps hard to use. Main beam knob the wrong size. Rack needs the use of tools for adding removing bikes.
Excellent product, and perfect for our requirements. We needed to carry two ebikes (RadRover fat tire bikes, @ 60 lb each w/o the battery) on a Class A motorhome. This rack seemed to be designed for that. It is strong, study, and simple enough to assemble. The latest design (late 2020) has updated wheel cradles, so you can carry a variety of tire widths up to 5" - big plus in convenience and cost over the prior edition. Due to supply chain constraints, we had to wait for the backorder, but it was well worth the wait. Yes, it was a bit pricey compared to most racks, but when you consider the extreme heavy duty construction, well thought design, and compare the price to the the only other heavy capacity RV compliant options, this is a fair price. Shout out to Nicole T in etrailer customer service who helped me get my backorder on track, and made sure the product arrived on time for my immediate need. Thanks Nicole! We've since travelled with the hitch mounted for about 1,500 miles, and can report it remains solid as the day it was installed. Lessons learned: I needed to set it up 2-3 times to really figure out the best arrangement; the bikes are big and might obstruct the tail lamps - so some minor adjustments were needed to resolve that; the included security cable is good, but a thicker cable or chain would offer more confidence. (I do like the keyed clamps that add another layer of theft deterrence.) Be sure to remove the batteries before mounting the bikes - the batteries will be safer inside the cabin or storage, and the weight savings is significant.
I spent a lot of time searching for a e-bike rack that not only would accommodate the weight of my 70 lb. bikes but also suitable for mounting on my 5th wheel RV. I came very close to buying a less expensive rack but after learning that racks must be specifically rated for 5th wheel RVs use, I made decision to purchase this rack. Although this rack may seem pricy, when I consider the investment I have made on my two e-bikes I didn’t want to skimp on the rack. One final comment. The two e-bikes I have are both the step thru type. This rack is capable of supporting the bikes without having to purchase cross bars to secure.
Roy - 02/25/2021So far this rack has performed well. Installed it on the back of our RV and headed to the campground. We have a rear view camera with an excellent view of the bike and rack. There was no bike or bike rack movement during the trip. The rack is pretty heavy and it fit really close to our ladder and back wall of RV. May try an extender for our application, but than that it is what we needed for RV and heavier lectric bikes.
I saw this exact rack review in Trailer Life magazine. It works perfectly with our ebikes. This rack is pricey but well worth it. Very well designed and sturdy. I highly recommend it.
Michael V - 04/23/2021We just assembled our Hollywood Rack and it’s amazingly sturdy. We purchased it for our fifth wheel trailer with e-bikes and have not used it yet. I can tell you it will definitely hold up to the task. It’s is really heavy duty!! It looks great as well. The supply chain disaster that was 2021 meant delayed stock but the whole team at etrailer was great to work with. I’m especially grateful for Paula and her patience in working with me as I awaited it being stocked and shipped. Thanks etrailer and Hollywood Racks!!
Very solid rack. Put it together and mounted it on my F150 this morning with the help of my brother. Got it fitted for 2 Radpower ebikes took the truck for a test drive and everything was very solidly mounted to the rack. Waited five months to get this rack - Very happy with this rack - it was worth the wait.
Hollywood Racks RV Rider Bike Rack fits perfectly and securely on the back of our Jayco Motorhome with two electric bikes. Both bikes are step through design,this rack allows for the locking grips to attach under the seat onto the seat bar without purchasing extra add on parts. An extremely sturdy product.
This rack was easy to assemble. It is well built and very sturdy. We bought this rack to use on our RV. We haven’t bought the RV yet so we will use the rack on the car and pickup truck in the meantime. When using the rack on the truck we are unable to use the U-bolt clamp because the factory installed receiver hitch tube is recessed under the bumper. There is no room to install the clamp. This is not a problem since we won’t be traveling long distances.
This rack is awesome. It will be used on our fifth wheel but also on the car or pick up.
I installed this on a Curt front hitch that I installed on my 2019 Ford F350. The bike rack is heavy duty and works perfectly. The box came damaged from UPS and the decal was scrapped on the hitch a little bit but this is not etrailers fault . Love it so far for my two 80lb Fat tire electric bikes .
I found the bike rack to be very good quality and heavy built. We have two ebikes and they are easy to load by applying the rear brake and raising the front wheel onto the rack and then the rear wheel. We are going to use the rack on a motor home and also on a Jeep Wrangler. I was concerned that the main tube wouldn't be long enough to clear the spare tire, but there is plenty of length and space between the tire and rack. It was easy to assemble with the included tools. My wife has a step thru bike and the top clamps attached to the seat post ok with out using a seat post to handle bar stem adapter.
This is a really heavy duty rack, which is what we needed for new electric bikes. It's a lot stronger than the Swagman that we had for regular bikes. The instructions were easy to follow and there were no problems assembling it. There were two downsides: (1) You need to use a wrench to remove a bolt in order to tilt the bikes away from the car's hatch. That's not very convenient. (2) The final step after you load your bikes on is to run straps from the center support to mounting points on the left and right side of your car's rear bumper area. Our car doesn't have those mounting points.
RV W - 08/18/2020Wow! I finally was able to get to putting this together after a 6-month backorder. I am truly impressed as to how well this rack is built. It appears to be really well built and strong. Be aware, it is awkward and heavy (I weighed mine at 58.2 pounds empty, minus the straps and a couple of small items) so removing this rack from or reinstalling it on your vehicle or just walking it to your storage space requires some muscles/leverage. I've loaded my Juiced RCS e-bike (75 lbs.) on it but otherwise have not used this rack yet. I'm looking forward to having this Hollywood rack and am truly impressed at the quality. It was worth the wait.
It is very sturdy and well designed ebike rack. It might take a a little extra bit of work (say 30 extra minutes) to assemble to ensure the bikes are balanced side to side and to ensure the pedals don’t interfere with one another. I am very glad I ordered this rack. The staff at etrailer were excellent and periodically give me status updates on its estimated shipping date. I am very pleased with my purchase and for using etrailer.
Well built, minimal movement when loaded. Bikes very secure. 4 locks all keyed alike. Would buy again
Solid construction and quality. Assembly instructions were easy to read and understand with pictures. Took about 1 hr to assemble. Have H1700 model with upto 5” wide tire holders. Bike lower derailer gear was tight against the tire holder side. Set bike gear to lowest setting and no more hitting.
Especially love the highly adjustable “clamps” for added stability. (Step through bikes will still require a horizontal bar.)
I love the rack for its quality but I’m even more impressed with etrailer. This company was first rate. I had three items I had purchased on line from three different companies. All of which we’re having the same issues with the supply chain due to covid. The other two companies took my money up front and then did not keep me informed unless I reached out to them. etrailer did not charge my card until they were ready to provide the product and they had a person assigned to me that would reach out to me regularly just to be sure I knew what was going on. Absolutely top notch service in my opinion and I tend to be a grumpy old man that’s not easily impressed.
This company delivers great products. We were looking for a Hollywood bike rack, they had it and was delivered within the week. Great company! I would recommend them for anyone looking for a bike rack for Ebikes. We had been looking for this bike rack and most companies, even Hollywood Bike Racks, were out of stock. etrailer you rock!
We have finished installing the rack! Yay! Instructions are detailed with several pages. Do follow the directions, people. This is a beautiful extra strong rack perfect for our two rad city bikes. It is installed on the rear of our 5th wheel. Have not used the rack yet. Will make a trip from Az to OR where will be using the numerous trails for bikes. Etrailer was able to deliver to us early. Great company always eager to help.
