Question:
Hello: Im interested in a 2 hitch mounted bike rack swing away for our 5th wheel. I like the EXO and the soft ride style, however in looking at the details it says it cant be used on a 5th wheel trailer? I need a vertical rack as our trailer tail lights are very low and would be covered by a plateform rack with bike cover. Thoughts?

Expert Reply:
If your 5th wheel has a rear ladder the Stromberg Carlson 2 Bike Carrier # LA-102 is going to be your best option since the Softride Hang2 # SR27041 and similar racks are not rated for a 5th wheel. The same is true for swing away racks like the Yakima EXO # Y54ZR. If you do not have a rear ladder the Swagman Original RV Bike Rack # S64152-2 is a hanging rack capable of supporting 3 bikes up to 35lbs each. This rack is rated for use on a 5th wheel and fits in a 2" receiver.
