Question:

Looking for recommendations. Have a 2018 Honda Odyssey towing a jayco 1208 pop up trailer. Looking for a bike rack to haul 3 bikes. Would like a hitch mount. What would you recommend?

Expert Reply:

What I recommend doing is installing a hitch on your popup, like the Curt Adjustable Hitch 22" to 66" Hitch # C13704, and then using the Thule Range 4 Bike RV Rack # TH9057 which has been rated and approved for use on a towable trailer hitch receiver.

Not every rack is rated for the extra movement at the back of a trailer and the nice thing is this is a solid bike rack and I wouldn't have an issue recommending it even if it wasn't the only one that would work for this application.

Please note if any of your bikes doesn't have a horizontal top tube or is a kid's frame you'll need the Adapter Bar # TH982XT so the bike will fit and sit level.
