How To Tow Trailer and Carry Bike Rack at Same Time
Published 10/04/2022
Question:
I was recommended this double ball mount: I admit Im new to the world of towing. What I would like to do is to install a bike rack and tow a trailer at the same time. Is this the correct approach? Thanks again,

Expert Reply:
The best option for carrying a bike rack and towing a trailer at the same time is indeed the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount as it allows you to retain capacities suitable for towing. I recommend the part # 325-GH-214 since it has an offset so you can place your bike rack in the top receiver and your ball mount in the bottom which gives adequate space between the components.
