Question:

I have 2 bikes, one an ebike and a Hollywood carrier. I downsized to a F250 pulling a Jay Feather 23RK, and wonder if you have a solution to allow carrying the 2 bikes short of putting them in the bed of the 250. Thanks for your help. Craig

Hello Craig,

The Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier for A-Frame Trailers - 2"-100 lbs # CC-275 that you were looking at would definitely work for what you are trying to accomplish.

Another option would be the Gen-Y Adjustable 2-Ball Mount w/ Stacked Receivers - 2" Hitch - 10" Drop/Rise - 10K # 325-GH-315. The # 325-GH-315 gives you stacked receivers, so you could place your bike rack in the upper receiver while still towing your Jay Feather 23RK with the lower one.

I am not sure the year of your F250, what size receive do you have on the back?

Thanks for getting back to me, but later that morning, I think I sent you the email about one in the morning when I couldn’t sleep, I ran across someone who did a front mount receiver to allow mount the bikes on the front of the truck. Right now I’m pulling a 6000 pound trailer with a anti-sway hitch so I can’t put anything back there, your first suggestion has 100 pound limit and that Hollywood frame is about 50 or 60 pounds in itself which would only allow me to put one of the two bikes up there. I think I’m gonna go ahead and get the front bolt on receiver, I think you have a Curt and one other to choose from. The truck is a 2018 F250 with the Duramax engine, crew cab, but short bed.

@CraigC Yes, a front hitch receiver would be an excellent option. For your 2018 F-250 you will ant the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # C31078. This front receiver will be able to handle your bike rack and bikes no problem! Thanks for getting that year to me so I can confirm the fit.
