Our take on the Trail Rider Hitch Bike Rack

The Trail Rider is a two-bike hitch rack for casual riders and weekend trips. Padded universal top hooks and adjustable wheel holders hold mountain, road and kids' bikes up to 45 lbs each, with a 60-inch wheelbase and 3-inch tire width limit. It folds flat when empty and tilts down for trunk access, and a locking threaded hitch pin and locking frame hooks add security. It fits 1 1/4-inch and 2-inch hitches but is not rated for e-bikes, front hitches, trailers or towed vehicles.
