One would think bikes or other stuff mounted on the bumper of a trailer would be OK, just like mounted on the back of the SUV or car. Not so, since I have spend more time than I want to think about on the highways and freeways. This is what I see. Bikes mounted on the rear of cars or SUVs seem to be real solid. Mounted on the trailer bumper they bounce like crazy. Why? opinion at this statement. The trailer axles and pivot up/down points are many feet foreword on the trailer compared to the SUV, the trailer also will never ride as smooth as a car or SUV or truck. . If you pull out that bumper to carry anything grab it and pull up and down. Mine moves 3-5 inchs and it will move that much with most bumps in the road. They really need to be modified to be safe.
