I'm also a fan and an advocate of a front "a-frame" mounted bike rack. I installed the Stromberg-Carlson cc-275 on my trailer 2 years ago. One of the best mods I've done. The bikes are much less tortured in our travels verses on the rear of the trailer. I had a receiver hitch welded to the rear frame rails which worked okay for the first couple of seasons. But the bikes (and bike rack) got beat up a bit. Now, the bikes ride in "first class" up front.

I also have the added benefit of seeing them in my rearview mirror.

Also, the CC-275 is very robust and solid when mounted to the A-frame. Just a few tools required for installation. It's definitely a product I would recommend.
