Bike Rack Solution for Quicksilver Camper Towed by Ford Escape

Updated 09/20/2022 | Published 09/19/2022

Question:

I have an old Quicksilver camper that Ive had little success finding a suitable bike rack for. I dont really want to use a roof rack on my 2018 Ford Escape. I have prototyped a rack using 2X4s. I would like to send you a picture of it so you can tell me if you know of something similar. Thanks.

Feel free to email me back with the pictures you have. I looked up pictures of your Quicksilver camper and since there is a platform on the back of it that would prevent a hitch mounted solution from working easily, and since you don't want to go with a roof rack solution and the camper has a pole tongue one of the best solutions I can think of right now would be a towing bike rack like the Curt Clamp On 3 bike rack part # C18013 which attaches to a 2 inch hitch ball mount shank and would carry the bikes above the front of the trailer.
