Hi Greg; I wish there was a way for me to know the correct parts for that 2023 Coachmen Catalina but we don't have a way to look it up. The only company that lists their parts like that is Grand Design. If they can get out to their trailer and…
Hi David! There are quite a few hitches offered for your 2026 Honda Odyssey, so I definitely understand wanting to know the differences. There are basically three styles available for you and I have them broken out below: Exposed Crosstube: etrailer…
Hey Jay, the etrailer High Low adapter part #e85ZV that you referenced is designed for use when towing one vehicle with another vehicle. This is what flat towing is. This is a situation where there is basically no tongue weight as all since a vehicle…
Hey Darrel. The Roadmaster Comfort Ride Leaf Spring Suspension Kit w/ Shocks item #RM-2460-2580 is without a doubt the best upgrade you can make to your Grand Design's suspension system. It's going to come with everything you need to swap out…
The Hollywood Racks Rack Valet Rolling Storage Cart for Hitch-Mounted Bike Racks - 100 lbs #HRRV-1 will work well for your application. The T2 Pro XTR #TH69XT weighs 52 lbs when set up as a 2-bike rack and weighs 96 lbs when set up as a 4-bike rack…
We have ways to carry ebikes in your truck bed, but not with the Swagman rack. What you can use instead - if your bike weighs no more than 50 lbs - is the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack #TH93VR, which can carry bikes with tires up to 5…
If you take a look at the dimensional drawing of the Reese Goose Box #RP94720 I attached, you can see that it measures 18.56 inches from the middle of the bottom bolt hole and the bottom of the coupler where the ball connects, so not the…
Actually, the unique clamp setup of the Saris Freedom 4, part #SA4414B rack you'd looked at would accommodate all the bikes you mention. Because the rack holds the bikes by the bottom of the tires and either by the top tube or the seat post tube,…
Hey Nick, thanks for reaching out! I highly recommend going with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver #C64NR for your 2020 Honda Odyssey because it has the hidden crosstube and a 2" receiver. The hidden crosstube gives you better ground clearance…
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver #C12175 in and of itself is a solid choice for your 2023 Honda Odyssey, but it does have a smaller receiver and the crosstube hangs under the bumper of your van and reduces ground clearance so I actually recommend…
The Malone Dual Purpose Hitch Receiver, part #MPG544 will work as a rise for your hitch. However, you'll reduce the tongue weight capacity of the hitch by 50%, dropping your total capacity from 525 pounds with the Curt Class III, part #C64NR down…
Tilting Bike Racks like the Thule Camber #TH9058 would need to have the bikes removed before the rack can be tilted rearward, because the bikes would hit the ground and not only damage them but would also prevent the rack from fully tilting down.…

Maximize Your Space with Efficient Bike Storage Solutions
Bike storage solutions are essential for keeping your garage or living space organized and clutter-free. Whether you're storing a single bike or a collection, these systems offer secure, space-saving options that cater to various bike types, including those with carbon frames. Consider ease of installation, durability, and compatibility with your bike's specifications.
Bike storage systems, like ceiling mounts and wall racks, free up valuable floor space by utilizing vertical storage. This is perfect for garages or small apartments, allowing you to store multiple bikes in the space where only one or two might fit otherwise. They also make it easier to keep the area tidy and accessible.
Consider the type of bikes you own, the available space, and the ease of installation. Some systems are better for heavy bikes, while others are designed for lightweight carbon frames. Look for features like adjustable hooks and sturdy mounts to ensure your bikes are secure and easy to access.
Some users find that rubber hooks can wear out over time, potentially damaging bike wheels. It's also important to ensure the system is compatible with your bike's wheel size. Adjustments may be needed for optimal fit, especially for larger wheels or specific storage angles.
Most bike storage systems are designed for easy installation, often requiring just a few tools. However, the process can vary depending on the type of system and the surface you're mounting it to. Wall racks might need precise measurements to ensure the bike's rear tire is at the right height for easy access.
