Will a Bike Loaded on Swagman RV Bumper Mount Bike Carrier Make Contact with Back of Camper
Updated 05/20/2015 | Published 05/19/2015
Question:
Can I measure to make sure the handle bars dont hit the rear of the camper. I have two bikes. I have a 2014 Grand Design 303 fifthwheel. It has a steel tube bumper with continuous weld.

Helpful Expert Reply:
The first bike sits 6-1/4 inches from the rear most part of the bumper. Then another couple of inches to the center of the first wheel cradle. And you would have to add the width of the bumper and the distance, if any, from the forward edge of the bumper to the body of the trailer.
So let's say that the bumper starts 2 inches from the back of the camper, the bumper is 4 inches, and the center of the bike is 9 inches from the bumper. Add it all up and you get 15 inches. If the bike width at the widest point is less than 30 inches then there will be no interference in this scenario.
