Hey Charles, the Swagman E-Spec part #S45SR is rated for use at the rear of a travel trailer so it will work great for you. It is odd that it's not closer connected to the other RV rated bike racks but that's our fault and I'll see if I…

Hey Craig! Is this a Lippert Ground Control system? Is the part actually 304136? I asked Lippert and they said they don't have anything under 304135. If it is the 304136 the correct replacement is the Replacement Control Module for Lippert Ground…
Hey Jim, the Benton Littleshit part #B54VR that you referenced weighs 25 lbs. It is in the description but it's easy to miss so no worries! This will work great with a bike bunk part #CC-275. What kind of bike do you have?
In these days of customer "no service" I am usually disapointed when doing business with people I don't know. It was refreshing doing business with you. I'm impressed!

Bike Accessories with Bike Covers for RVs
Bringing bikes on a 5th wheel or motorhome, bike covers help keep them clean and dry on the road. Verify your mounted bike-and-rack dimensions fit the cover's opening. When a cover includes cinch straps, use them to snug up extra material with 1 bike; adding an inner cover or a cargo net helps stop flapping and wear. Large options can enclose 2 bikes and the rack for steady travel.
Use these covers behind an RV or motorhome where the coach blocks most wind. Mounting a cover on the rear of a passenger vehicle exposes it to direct airflow, which can tear a cover in short order. Position the bikes behind the RV body and secure the cover tightly to help minimize movement.
They can keep bikes clean and dry during long trips on the back of a 5th wheel. Users report good quality and endurance over extended use. Zip the cover fully and snug the straps so the material doesn't flap. After driving in rain, check for any pooled water and retighten straps if needed.
Expect a short learning curve; it gets easier with practice. Some setups require removing the rack once to feed the shank through the cover, then you can leave the cover in place. Confirm your mounted bike dimensions fit inside the cover and tighten all tie-downs. If carrying one bike in a 2-bike cover, take up slack to prevent flapping. Consider an inner bike cover to reduce wear, and make sure your license plate stays visible.
Yes, many RV-ready covers are sized for two bikes and can also envelop the rack. Measure your bikes on the rack and compare to the cover's dimensions to confirm they fit inside. Use the included cinch straps to gather any slack. If parts hang down, add bungees or a cargo net around the outside to reduce flapping and wear.
