Question:

Can this rack be used to mount on a 2inch bar used to flat tow a car behind a Winnebago motor home there is enough room for the clamp between the hitch and the point - about 2.5? If not, what other clamp-on options exist for this purpose?

Expert Reply:

Curt Clamp-On 3 Bike Rack # C18013 is not rated for use at the back of an RV so I do not recommend using it. If you have 3 inches or more free space on the shank you can use Swagman bike rack # S64664. I have included a link to a video review of this bike rack for you.

The other option is to use a dual receiver such as # RM-077-2 and then use an RV-approved rack, see link.
