Hey, Dan. Thanks for reaching out!

The Swagman Current bike rack # S64678 unfortunately can’t be used on the back of your 38-foot Grand Design Reflection. It isn’t rated to handle the additional torque created when mounted at the rear of a 5th wheel.

A great alternative, that is approved to be used on the back of a 5th wheel, is the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR. It’s also rated to carry up to 60 lbs per bike, the same capacity as the Swagman.

What kind of bikes will you be loading onto the rack?

Thank you for your reply! I currently have 2 hybrid Specialized bikes. They’re lightweight but I want the ability to put ebikes on there in the future. So this sound good. My original searches were for a 4 bike rack. Is that out of the question or is there one that is approved for the torque and staying under the 300 lb tongue weight for the hitch receiver? Thanks again!!

@Dan I double checked and there isn't a good solution for a 4 bike. There are some hanging bike racks like the Yakima LongHaul part # Y02476 but weight wise, wouldn't be good for an ebike. Max is 37.5 lbs per bike.
