Question:

Looking to get a hanging bike rack to use on both my 31 travel trailer and regular vehicle. On a QandA, the S63381 was suggested, but honestly not too confident after reading some reviews. So question is, which is more highly recommended, the S63381, or I was looking at the Y02476. Any info or incite would be appreciated.

While the Curt 4 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # C18030 is a great bike rack it is not compatible with travel trailers, unfortunately.

Instead, I recommend checking out the:

-Swagman Trailhead RV Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches # S63381.

This hitch is capable of carrying up to 4 bikes weighing 35-lbs each, will work with a 2" trailer hitch receiver, and is also compatible with travel trailers.

Attached are a couple of videos for you to check out as well.

Between the Yakima LongHaul RV Bike Rack - 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches # Y02476 and the Swagman Trailhead RV Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches # S63381, I recommend going with the Yakima LongHaul # Y02476. Reason being is, the Yakima LongHaul # Y02476 has a bit higher capacity at 37.5-lbs per bike for a 150-lbs, is also compatible with 1-1/4" trailer hitches by using the included adapter sleeve, and has lower cradles that will reduce bike-to-bike contact to prevent scratches and scuffs.
