Question:

I have a kz23 CFK hybrid travel trailer, would this work where the front tip-out opens directly over the A-frame?

Expert Reply:

I pulled up some pictures of your KZ23 CFK hybrid travel trailer and it has an A-frame like what the part # CC-255 requires for installation, but the tip out portion of the trailer on the front would not be able to be used with the # CC-255 at the same.

An easier to use route might be the part # D210 instead which is a ball mount that has a hitch opening above the platform. This would allow you to remove the bike rack from the hitch opening and use the tip out of your trailer.

The most popular bike rack we carry that would work with the # D210 is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
