Can a Bike Adapter Bar # 64005 Be Used on a Bike Rack at the Back of a 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
Are these safe to use in combination with S64940 on the back of a fiftth wheel camper. I am looking for the safest combination for the back of a fifth wheel. Three of the bikes are alternative frames or womens frames. Thank!

You may not even need to use an adapter bar when using Swagman XP bike rack # S64940, depending on the frame design of the bikes in question. The cradles can rotate so you can carry the bikes level. As long as the bike frames are 2 inches in diameter or less and are not step-through frames, adapters will not be needed.
Should you need to use an adapter bar like # 64005 it can be used with the bike rack on the back of a 5th wheel trailer. I have included a link to a video that shows how it works.
