Question:
We use a bike rack on the front of our vehicle. Will this material stand up to the wind? Swagman 2- Bike Cover for RV Hitch Mounted Bike Racks

No, I can't recommend you use a bike rack cover like the # S24FR on a bike rack that is installed on a front hitch. You really can only use covers like this behind a very large vehicle where the air flow is basically blocked. Reason is the whipping of the wind will cause the cover to either damage the bikes, tear the cover, or fly of all together.

Can you recommend a cover that would be appropriate for the front or is any cover a bad idea when transporting bikes using a front hitch? Thanks.
