We have installed the rack and bike holder and they are exactly what we expected. Customer service was very helpful in suggesting a replacementioned bike rack when the one we chose was no longer available . Very good quality. Thank you. 379474

This product worked out great we love it it fits on the camper Tong perfectly and it is out-of-the-way for when you're backing up the vehicle does not hit the bikes. I would recommend this for anybody that needs to carry their bikes with them but don't have room on the bumper to put them. Plus on some of the reviews that we've read about your bike rack on the bumper it has bent the bumper and they've lost their bikes. 150394

It does the job as advertised, but the horizontal cross member is about an inch too short for my setup. It makes it nearly impossible to remove the cover for the 30-pound propane tanks. You can do it, but it is very tight. An additional 1/2-1 inch would be helpfuld. 570334

I bought the bike bunk about a year ago and mounted it on my 2008 Dutchmen travel trailer. It went on pretty easy. Locating and drilling the holes was probably the most difficult part. I can remove the propane tanks cover and the battery with the bike bunk on as long as the bikes are not on. I used it for the first time on a trip from Illinois to Florida last Jan. I ended up with a little more weight on the tongue than I would like, but the trailer tracked fine and the bikes rode very well. So far I'm very happy with this purchase. It has freed up a lot of space in the bed of my truck and I can keep the bed cover closed. 407083
Still loving it. Also a few people have asked me where I bought it.

Perfect fit on the front of our RV Travel trailer- holds our receiver hitch bike racks at a height that doesn't impede maneuvering the trailer while backing up. We have a small (19') KZ Spree Express trailer, and this worked perfectly. Easy to install; hardest part was drilling the holes to secure the uprights in the final position. 355751

Just installed it today. Relatively easy and the unit is made of good solid materials with legible and easy to follow instructions. Only downside is how high the bikes will ride but that is unavoidable. I like that we can transfer the bike rack to the Jeep once we get where we are headed and in effect have 2 racks, one for travel and one to use on the towing vehicle. Good price when I ordered it and great customer service. 502970

Product works as advertised, but be careful with your tow vehicle. I use a 2005 GMC Savanna passenger van to tow my trailer and it damaged the vehicle when I made a turn. I’m sure there wouldn’t be a problem with a truck, but this didn’t work with my setup. Now collecting dust in the garage after one use. Too bad. I really liked the idea. 527847

Fits perfectly at the front of my Living Lite Camplite 14DBS. I have dual battery boxes and dual propane tanks (with a plastic cover over the tanks) and the curvature of the supports cleared these items with no problem. I will comment that although it is possible for 1 person to load bikes on a bike carrier attached to this rack, it is much easier and I highly recommend that 2 people do the loading. 418139
Exactly perfect
by: Steve T.08/11/2015
It was the perfect solution for us. We have an R-POD and pulling it with a Silverado. Options are kind of limited if you want to use the bed for something else. This solution really saved the day. For me, install was a little tricky as I had to install it fairly close to the front of the camper due to the limited space on the a-frame. Basically, once the brackets are tightened down, the curve of the camper doesn't allow me to remove the poles. This isn't really a bad thing since you don't want it to come out anyway, but just kinda tricky to install. Yes, you do have to drill holes in the support vertical tubes, but once you understand the flexibility of this setup, it is very obvious why the manufacturing doesn't put them there for you in advance. Truthfully, at least with my setup, the locking bolts held everything in place perfectly without drilling the holes and installing the additional bolts. I wouldn't recommend this, of course, and I'll be fixing that on my install soon, but it actually did work fine without them. Highly recommended. 218423

Good solid product which I purchased because I had concerns about carrying bikes on the back bumper. I installed this on a 2012 Rockwood mini-lite which has a short front. Our bike rack didn't have the clearance so I found a rack with a distance of 7 1/2 inches from the pin hole to the upright and this works well. We may have to take the front wheel off the bike closest to the tow vehicle but this is a much better way to transport our bikes. I like this item! 187841
All good!
by: Gale M06/08/2016
The delivery was very quick and both items arrived at the same time and in excellent condition. We were able to put it on our travel trailer with no problem and it went together very easy! The bike rack was also very easy to put together and once we figured out the best way to put our bikes on it we were really pleased! We are looking forward to using it this weekend! Thank You, this really helpedus solve our problem of taking our bikes. 259042

I would have given it 5 stars but there a couple of simple design improvements that I can't understand why they haven't been implemented. 1) Bolts to hold the bent posts in the Frame Pockets weren't sufficiently long enough, 2) captive nuts should be supplied (for all nuts) instead of lock washers, and the biggest one 3) the pre-drilled holes in the Cross Tube to hold the Bent Posts in place should have been drilled side-to-side parallel with the front of the trailer instead of front-to-back (can't get a drill behind the rack once assembled). This would allow drilling out the holes in the bent pipe with the rack in position from the side w/o taking the rack apart. Other than that it worked quite well during our 4500 mile road trip carrying just about 100 lbs of bike rack/bikes. Just be careful of the tow vehicle turn radius if your bike rack is quite wide like our platform rack was. Hanging bike rack would work the best I think. 262452

The rack does just what I wanted it to. It fits as stated and is well engineered and heavy. Ordering was a breeze and it was delivered very quickly -- Thank You Nicky. It comes powder coated and it packed well so all the powder was in good condition. Now for the bad -- the directions are very poorly written if that good. You have to read them and then try to figure out what they want by looking carefully at the pictures. This job goes much easier with 2 people. I spent much more time than it probably really takes but it looks good and is sturdy with the bikes on it. 216583

I bought this bike bunk to mount on the tongue of my R-pod camper. I carry 2 bikes on it, and I love having them right in my view as I drive along. I have very little bounce with this unit. Oh, BTW the bikes sit just high enough that they go over the tailgate on sharp turns. 474753

I bought this because I couldn't figure a good way to bring my bikes with us on vacations when we also brought our jet ski trailer. I looked at all sorts of different ways to try and get a bike rack and a trailer on my truck at the same time, and finally came across this. While it's not on a travel trailer like it was intended, it works perfectly for our needs. It fits right above the storage box holding our life jackets and other stuff, but gives enough room for the hatch to open up and let us retrieve the items. I paired this with a Lets Go Aero BikeWing and now I can bring the bikes, the jet skis, and still keep the truck bed free for our mattress and camping gear. If you are trying to find a way to bring your boat and bikes to the lake at the same time, and are towing with an SUV or a truck with a full bed, this is the perfect fit. 512524

I have a small (18ft) travel trailer with an axle flip so I can take it just about anywhere. I had a bike rack mounted on the rear tube bumper and even after additional welding to reinforce it, the old bike rack was pulling the welds apart. I looked into rear frame mounted racks/receivers but they rode low and appeared to lessen the ground clearance....so I gave this system a try. So far so good. It was easy to mount and is sturdy. It carried two bikes across two states and down miles of bumpy gravel roads to my favorite fishing holes without working loose. I have a full sized truck with a canopy so I had to be cautious when moving through depressions (like going over a Kelly hump) but that was it. I lost a little turn radius but it was barely noticable and I was still able to get where I wanted to go. It's tight between the truck & trailer and I can't open the canopy door completely (with two bikes) but I was still able to reach through and get what I was after. Overall I like it and would recommend it to others. It gets the job done. 261002

I ordered (on line) a Bike Bunk Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier (2"-100 lbs, CC-275). It was delivered well within the estimated time in excellent condition. I mounted it on my A-liner Classic. It took a couple of hours without any problems. I was able to install it such that the cross bar is about 2" from the A-liner front. So that's good. It feels very sturdy. I mounted my bike rack and 2 adult hybrid bikes (total weight about 95 lbs). It still feels very solid, and there's no problem with turning radius (with my Toyota Tacoma with cap). Haven't taken it on the road yet, but I don't foresee any problems. I'm very happy with the product. 291823
by: Dennis D.07/08/2015
This item performs exactly as I hoped it would. It took some work to assemble but we'll worth it. Because I tow with an SUV, I am able to only carry two bicycles, but I expected this. I also reversed my bike rack to ensure a clear turning and backing radius. (A pick up truck should not have any trouble hauling 4 bikes. ) I am very pleased with this bike bunk and would recommend it to anyone who desires to tamend bikes along but has no other place to put them. Shipping was fat and free. I have been very pleased with Etrailer and prefer them to CW. 210270
by: Mickey H07/20/2016
Didn't give it 5 stars because it only supports 100 lbs. Bike rack I bought is 54 # and two bikes at 40# puts it over its weight capacity. I think the concept is great but needs some fine tuning to be able to hold at least two adult bikes. Price is on the upper end to only carry 100#. I changed all the bolts from grade 5 to grade 8 added upright brace that attaches to my tongue jack bolts and sets under bike rack to help support the weight. Not recommending this to anyone just saying what I did. 273940
by: Barch B.03/16/2015
Very well made product. Quite substantial. Fitted snugly between my battery tray attachment and the weight distribution arms on the A frame of my 2015 Lance 2285 TT. I am able to remove the cover from the propane tanks without removing the top cross tube. The 3/8" x 2 1/2" bolts specified in Figure F are too short. They need to be 2 3/4", the same as in Fig I instead. You can make them work, but the lock nuts don't really engage well. This thing is solid. Once installed, absolutely no movement. I have no doubt it will carry my two Mountain Bikes well. 178816

Ordering was easy. Item shipped in a timely manner with frequent updates from customer service to keep me informed about delivery. Installation was easy. It took me less than an hour. Easy to figure out. I hardly looked at the instructions. You can pretty much look at the picture and figure it out. The only thing that may be difficult is that you have to drill some holes in the tubing to bolt the parts together. You'll need small drill and a 3/8 bit. I have these things and it took me 5 minutes to drill holes. The other drawback was that 2 of the bolts included were too short. They provide 2-2 1/2" bolts that didn't work. I went to the hardware store and got 2-3" bolts. No problem. I used this rack to carry two bikes on my trailer. The rack is very strong and rigid. The metal tubes were about 1 1/2" away from the trailer. I was concerned that they may sway/bounce and hit the trailer while traveling. Not a problem. Rack never moved. I would recommend this rack for anyone who needs a place to carry their bikes. 228314

Great fit on my travel trailer. Took experts advice and purchased a Let's Go Aero Veeme V2 bike rack. Very pleased with both products. A safe way to carry our bikes while rv ing. Thanks etrailer experts for this solution. Both items easy to install and are very strong. The bike rack is easily moved to the receiver on my truck. 226284
I have a 2015 Wolf Pup. It is very similar to your trailer! I am towing with a Silverado. Are you having any issues with turning radius with bikes hitting tailgate.
-- comment by: Peter G - 11/01/2015No problems with turning radius interference, also towing with a Silverado.
-- comment by: Gary M - 11/04/2015 by: Mike G.04/17/2016
I have used the bike carrier on two separate occasions, and find the product to be just what the doctor ordered. The unit is very sturdy and of good quality. The carrier mounted easily to the front tongue of my trailer and provides more than adequate space to gain access to the tongue mounted propane tanks. I ordered this particular carrier since I can now mount my bikes to the front tongue in clear view of the tow vehicle. I did not like the thought of mounting my bike rack to a receiver mounted on the rear of my trailer, out of view and more susceptible to damage, theft or vandalism while traveling. 245774

My CC-275 bike carrier arrived just 3 days after I placed the order. Packaging was bomb-proof and the carrier itself, compared to other similar product I have seen, seems to be assuringly over-built. I have only "dry-installed" it because I want to be sure I have it set up exactly right. My camper is some what a unique design so I won't drill any holes until I'm certain. Only a couple of minor disappointments: the manufacturer is still enclosing two bolts that should be a quarter to a half inch longer in spite of a great many reviews pointing out the shortcoming of short bolts. Second, I am cranky about the placement of the bolt holes on the upright posts, in that they face back to front rather than parallel to the front of the camper. It's hard to get a drill into the space between the post and the camper. If they were aligned the other way it would be a piece of cake to drill out the posts. Etrailer.com, , do you share customer comments with the manufacturer? Oh, and the CC-275 is made in the good old US of A! 295784
by: Marty A.06/30/2017
I knew I would like this when the photo on the box was that of my trailer and my truck down to the color. Actually, now that it is installed, I find it extremely sturdy and stable. I appreciate the fact it is very adaptable to many configurations. The only drawback I found was that holes have to be drilled in the tubes (top and bottom). Because of the close proximity of the trailer to the bracket, I had to mark and remove the tubes to drill the appropriate holes. Then I had to re-install and drill through to be able to install bolts. Definitely not plug and play but a great product, nonetheless. 400808
by: Paul03/08/2018
This product has been a great way to carry our 2 bikes (1 mine, one my wife's). The install was fairly easy (it helps If you have 2 people to line things up, hold while drilling, etc). The best thing about this rack is being able to easily keep an eye on the bikes while traveling, whether driving or parked. I considered those bracket braces for the rear trailer bumper, but at the end of the day: (1). My trailer bumper doesn't look like it will handle torsion well, even with supplemental bracing; (2). The spare tire (already on the trailer bumper) got in the way; and (3). My bikes aren't cheap and I like being able to keep an eye on them. Thanks etrailer for your excellent videos and online advice! 482318
by: Margaret07/08/2016
This has been fantastic. It's high up to get bikes on and off but I like them there better then on the back of camper. Everyone we talked to at E trailer was awesome!!! Thank you. 269275
by: Gary06/10/2016
Perfect setup for what we needed. Installation issue - need longer bolts. Used the Swagman XP 3-bike hitch mount rack and carried 2 bikes. Drove close to 1,300 miles last year with the bikes on and had no issues. On-loading and off-loading bikes is very easy with a pickup truck - dropped tailgate is just the right height. 259805

Getting to try out the Stromberg Carlson bike bunk that I installed on the trailer hitch frame. Using it with a Go Aero V2 bike rack that I can use on the trailer or the truck. It works great! The bike rack is easy to transfer weighing only 12 pounds and no movement of bikes at all during travel. Very happy with this combo from etrailer.com 429535
by: Andrew S.08/28/2015
This product works perfectly and is super strong. I'm not sure why this is only rated to 100lbs, it is extremely strong and thick steel. I actually decided to cut the vertical support tubes down to lower the overall height so my expandable trailer front panel could lower over the top of it. The steel was so tough my metal cutting bandsaw couldn't cut it! I had to take them to a metal fabricator with an industrial saw to cut them. I'm very impressed with the quality of the product and the design. 222369

I bought this bike rack to get our bikes in front of the trailer and off the back bumper. In reading about bumper mounted bike racks most state that they shouldn't be mounted off the back of trailers. I suppose it's because of the bouncing action. The bikes sit high enough so they don't interfere with the truck while turning. The only problem is the height can be inconvenient in taking the bikes off and on. Fortunately our bike rack is hinged so the bikes can be lowered to make it easier. The other issue is the rack doesn't allow the use of a rigid propane cover as the cross bar sits to close to the top of the propane bottles. The rack is well built and easy to install. 310097

Okay, shy of taking it out on the road (trip upcoming in a couple of weeks) I like it. Well built and sturdy. The install was a bit more complicated on one side that the other as there were some electrical issues and lines I had to deal with but that doesn't detract from the product. The one issue I had was one that has been written up by others that have installed it and that is that there are 2 bolts included that are just too short for their intended purpose by about 1/4 to 1/2 inch, so I had to run to re hardware store to replace. Other than that the install went smooth and the results I'm quite happy with. Oh yeah the tube sitting in on channel fit a bit tight but a spray of WD-40 fixed that right away. Bottom line, as it stands today without testing it on the road, it appears to be an excellent product. Road test will be the telling tale. 186295

We purchased the Bike Bunk as we were planning a 2 week trip from Texas to Montana with our son and his two boys. We were taking 5 bicycles and had to find a solution. After watching the video several times we took a chance and purchased. It was very easy to install, actually easier than most of the reviews suggested. The rack worked perfectly and we have had absolutely no issues. The only comments I might add are that the bikes end up pretty high in the sky. My grand kids couldn't get their bikes down without adult help. The other issue is that sometimes we would have to remove the first bike in very tight backing situations. But it was really never a big issue. The most interesting thing to happen is how many people stopped us and asked "where did you get that?" We were happy to tell everyone that asked. One guy even took over a dozen pictures he was so impressed. 249660

Just mounted the rack today. It was very easy to assemble. Tried a couple of places to get the best fit so I can get to my propane tanks. Only took about 45 min to mount. Put the bikes on but have not pulled the trailer with the bikes in place. 523620

The bike bunk works great. Definitely a 5 star rating. Makes the camper ride so much better with the bikes on the front compared to the bikes on the back of camper. Thanks. 420781
Wow !! year gone by already. Can say one thing about the bike rack and it is I wish I would have gotten one a lot sooner. Works absolutely great and a great price also. Thanks
by: Patrick11/17/2018
Works OK on our Rpod. It was a little difficult drilling the 1/2 inch bolt holes with a hand drill but that's all I had. These guys could have provided some corrosion resistant fasteners. The provided bolts started to rust right away. 583482

I was looking for a way to mount a bike carrier on my 2016 Flagstaff Superlite TT. Due to the low ground clearance (14" rims) I couldn't relocate the rear bumper mounted spare underneath travel trailer. Tow vehicle is 2015 Ram 1500 4x2. Settled on the SC Bike Bunk plus Let's Go Aero BikeWing2 mounted as far back on front frame as possible so the bike bunk clears the propane bottle cover and maximizes distance between back of truck and bikes when turning. Success! I also made spacers ( bar stock from Home Depot cut down & painted black. see pic) which raised Bike Bunk up another 3/4" (every little bit helps!). My 26" wheeled bikes have 5.5" clearance above tailgate top. 29er will only have 2.5". No issues on flat ground whatsoever; concern may be up & over curb turning into gas stations with 29ers (not tested yet); 26" bikes no clearance issues experienced at all. Hint: GoAero rack tilts forward so I use trailer electric front jack to lower the whole front of trailer down when loading & unloading bikes. Easy peasy no step ladder. required! 578757

We’re 1500 miles into a 3 month adventure. Bike rack on front of trailer is working great. Like the fact that we can use the bike rack on the trailer or move it to our SUV. 541965
by: Ken06/30/2018
Received my bike bunk in a very timely manner. It appears to be high quality and sturdy. Have not installed yet but will very soon. If it works as well as it appears I will be very happy. 528826

Great product, as advertised. Buy it and quit letting those bikes dangle off your bumper or destroying your ladder :) 524138
by: Dan04/23/2018
Have it on our travel trailer. Works great for hauling our two bikes. It’s mounted close to trailer with a Hollywood two bike carrier. It’s a reach to get them on and off. I can do it myself but it’s easier with two people. 499747
by: Steven04/08/2018
Works great mounted on the tongue of our rpod camper. It could add a couple hundred pounds to the tongue weight, coupled with the bike rack and bikes, so the math has to be done for your tow vehicle. Overall, much more stable than a rear bike carrier. We will see what kind of rusting will occur with time spent outside. 494042
by: Steve03/03/2018
Very nice and sturdy. I would recommend this front camper bike rack. I wish they would have put some taped holes in the receiver, 2 on top and two on the side to tighten up your bike rack when you slide it into the receiver. I did it to mine and the bikes don’t wobble at all. All in all very nice product. 480719
by: Blaine B02/13/2018
This product did not disappoint. We managed to mount the hardware on the frame of our RV and the rack sits well away from the propane tank. It is very solid once installed. Very happy with this product. 475542
by: Jeffrey02/02/2018
I wanted a well made bike rack for my new travel trailer, and it had to be hitch mounted vs mounted on the rear bumper on my trailer. Rear bumpers on trailers are notorious for lacking the structural integrity necessary for a bike rack with 2 bikes. I have not assembled this yet but I am impressed with the thickness of the metal parts. Instructions are somewhat skimpy but any person with minimal mechanical skills should be successful assembling this rack. 472236

So we finally started using this bike rack, and it is great. It fits nicely on the frame over our propane tanks. We have a travel trailer with the fold out beds which lowers right on top of where the bike rack is, so I had to saw the posts down about 5 inches, so the bed wasn't resting on it while it was down. Works great though. We have a light weight frame, so it is a little smaller than the normal frames, so the hardware that was included worked just fine (some commenters said that you needed longer bolts). We are really happy that we were able to find this rack, it saves a lot of time for us. thanks, 448192
by: Joe U10/04/2017
This has been a great product. Holds our two bikes and our tandem bike with no problem. Once the carrier is installed, it is so easy to use and very sturdy. We never worry about our bikes while travelling anymore. 439171
