Solution for Transporting 2 Adult Trikes with 2018 Lexus RX350
Question:
I have 2 two Miami Sun 24 adult trikes that I need a bike rack to put on a 2018 Lexus RX350 SUV with a 2 receiver, that i would like to haul. Do you carry such a rack? Specifics upon request! Pictures below. Thank You

I may have a solution for you, however we do not have a hitch-mounted rack available that can support two trikes like what you have.
I recommend using the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Trike Carrier # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP for the first trike. This hitch-mounted carrier is compatible with the 2 inch receiver on your Lexus and can handle 1 trike of up to 100 pounds. It will work perfectly for trike tracks widths of up to 36 inches and wheelbases of up to 74 inches. I do recommend securing the rack and your bike in place with the Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock and Cable Lock # HRLHPTC to help deter theft.
I have attached the written installation instructions for this carrier that you can take a look at.
Then for the second trike, I recommend looking at the SeaSucker Roof Bike Rack for Trikes # 298-BD1005. This roof carrier is specifically designed for trikes and it uses unique heavy-duty vacuum cups that will attach to the roof of your vehicle. I have attached a demonstration video on the SeaSucker design just so you can get a sense of the strength of its vacuum cups.
