4 to 6 Bike Carrier for Use in Enclosed 5 x 8 Trailer

Updated 08/14/2020 | Published 06/10/2014

Question:

We are looking for the best way to carry between 4-6 bicycles inside and enclosed 5x8 trailer. Preferably with the wheels on. Wondering about a truck bed carrier? What do you suggest?

Expert Reply:

For your most cost-effective option, and for one that will not necessarily interfere with other potential uses for your enclosed 5 x 8 trailer, I suggest a bolt-on fork-mount carrier such as Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier # HRT970. There are more costly similar units offered that include locks, but since you have an enclosed trailer to protect your bikes from theft this simple and effective fork-mount option if ideal if you are willing to remove the bikes' front wheels.

In my opinion there really are no other options that compete with this simple and inexpensive item.

Are there any tracks like E track, or L or X tracts that would work with something like the Hollywood Rack system for fork mounts the could be suspended from the walls of an enclosed trailer?
