Thule FastRide Roof Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Fork Mount

Question:

What I have is a 2010 Aliner Scout. It has a aluminum frame that goes all the way around the top of the trailer, and looks like it could support this unit. What are your thought about this. I have considered the Sportrack through the hitch set up so I can tow the trailer as well, but Im a little concerned about the loss of tongue weight, and the clearance needed between the trailer and bikes.

There really is no reason that you could not install a SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack # SR1020 on your 2010 Aliner Scout. The feet of the rack will install securely and permanently on the roof of the camper.

For bike racks I would recommend the Thule FastRide Fork-Mount Bike Carrier # TH95JV. This is a great rack because of how well it works and how easy it is to use.
