Question:

Hi, Im interested in a 2 bike rack that I can easily move from the back of my motorhome to the back of my Honda CRV. Do you have anything like that? Thanks

As long as the RV is a motorhome and not a travel trailer, I have some reasonably priced options that would allow you to carry 2 bikes behind both your motorhome and your 2014 Honda CR-V.

For a hanging type bike rack, the Swagman Trailhead 2 bike model part # S63360 would work well for you. The rack can tilt rearward once the bikes are removed to allow access to the vehicle's rear cargo area and the rack features an ant-rattle hitch pin to keep the rack from moving around in the hitch which can sometimes happen. A locking hitch pin/cable lock combo is available as part # S64031. The rack has a 35 lb per bike capacity.

Platform style bike racks are usually easier to load, as you won't need to lift the biked up so high to load them onto the rack. The Swagman XTC2 TILT, part # S64671 would be a good choice. This rack also has a 35 lb per bike capacity and also includes an anti-rattle hitch pin. The rack can tilt rearward with the bikes in place, allowing easy cargo area access for most vehicles and the rack features an angled shank that provides additional ground clearance. The same locking hitch pin/cable lock mentioned above is compatible with this rack.

The racks mentioned above would be a good choice for a standard bike, but if you have electric bikes, bikes with step-through or bikes with carbon-fiber frames the racks mentioned might not be a good fit. If your bikes fit into any of those categories, please reply with more information about your bikes and I'd be glad to make an updated recommendation.

I've linked to some product demonstration videos for the products I recommended above.
