I am considering two options now:

1. An A-Frame type back rack. Pros: Not too expensive, look sturdy, and bolt-on. Cons: lifting a two 60-lb bikes to shoulder height to get them onto the damn rack. https://www.etrailer.com/RV-and-Camp...SABEgLEsvD_BwE

2. Having a hitch welded to the frame in the rear of the trailer. Pros: probably the most sturdy option, easier to load bikes. Cons: custom weld / (Can't DIY). Curt makes a unit for this purpose: https://www.etrailer.com/RV-and-Camp...RT/C13701.html


I'm curious if any have tried either of these solutions with success and recommendations for which approach?

Thanks!

Jack, If you were to make a signature with year, make and model of your camper and same for your tow vehicle, answers to questions like you just posed might have more context. Upper left of every page under UserCP.
