bike rack

We purchased a new Columbus 320RS...We had our first trip Easter. We love the RV, but were wondering if anyone has tried the bike rack. Our 26" standard bikes don't fit correctly between the slots. Even though we thought we had the bikes stable and secure with straps. We almost lost them on a...

If I were to fabricate a steel bar/receiver for the purpose of a bike rack.... and attach it to my frame in the rear of the trailer instead of connecting it to bumper, would it have a negative effect on any remaining warranty that I might have on trailer components? My 1 year bumper to bumper...

OK so I am driving down interstate 80 yesterday on my way to pick up my 5er at the rv dealer that I had dropped off for warranty work and wouldn't you know it I see this. Now I know this may seem normal but its to bad I wasn't able to video tape this. These bikes were violently bouncing up...

I am looking at the ladder bike rack I have one bike to haul.. my question is will my ladder support one bike without ripping the ladder off the camper?

I have a new sandpiper select 32 QBBS and have asked my dealer for a Forest River approved bike rack option for my trailer. He said that they recommend a bumper hitch and that FR will void the frame warranty if I put a frame mounted hitch on it. After asking my dealer "if my bumper falls off...

As all Sabre owners the 450lb bike rack is GREAT but not your friend when trying to secure bikes:confused:. I have mod mine and this is what I have come up with. Problem no way to secure bikes and bikes don't fit in slots. Solution cut out part of bike rack to allow wheels to drop in. Then...

Our bikes took a beating on the back of our Surveyor SP240 last fall. We used a standard Yakima rack in a welded frame mounted receiver. I now plan to go to a tray type of rack. Any suggestions on a very stable rack? I am thinking of a Yakima Hold Up.

Is anyone using one of these???... Amazon.com: Allen Deluxe 3-Bike Spare Tire Mount Rack: Sports & Outdoors Need to haul 3 bikes.....always too much crap in the bed......hitch is full ;) thought about putting on on the front of the truck?......anyone doing that??? But what about the license...

I have read alot of issues with putting a bike rack on the rear of a 5th wheel due to the leverage factor. I have a 2011 Sabre RETS-6 with the factory rear cargo/bike carrier, only problem is our bikes do not fit on the rack. I have plans on modifying the existing mounting brackets to be able...

So we all know the thought on putting a bike rack on the bumper. I am wanting to know what unforeseen issues I may be facing by useing a double reciever adapter and putting my e2 wdh hitch in the bottom reciever and with some southern engineering putting a bike rack in the top one. I pull a 30'...

I'm thinking about adding a 2" receiver hitch on the back of my 2011 Rockwood 1809s TT. FR advises that this will void the warranty (expired anyway) as may cause problems with TT frame. Company line is they don't recommend... There is a welding shop nearby that can build a custom hitch...

I know that they sell one as an add on but has anyone used it? Need to know the ease of use and if any problems during use. I.e. falls off!

Well, At first, excuse my English as it is not my first language. We just bought a 2012 R-POD 177 yesterday. As we live in Quebec City (and his snow and winter carnival), we will take possession by the end of April. My first question is: if I remove the spare tire at the back, can I put a...

Here's a shot of a bike rack Rockwood offers for their popups. I don't know if it's the one RV Direct lists for the A-frame series campers. (http://www.rvdirect.com/models.asp?type=4&make=332&model=2517) That one was listed at $390 and this one sure doesn't look like it should cost that much...

We are proud new owners of a 2012 Flagstaff Hard Side T12RB...we are super excited and can’t wait to take our first adventure. :thumbsup: We are avid mountain bikers and are not sure where to rack our bikes? We have read online blogs that adding a hitch to the back of a hard-sided pop up may...

Available for local pick up only - too hard and heavy to ship - Great used bike rack that holds 2 bikes. In great working condition. And includes home-made receiver that should bolt on to most rv bumpers. Used it for several years on the back of my previous 23' travel trailer. Have no need...

I have a 2002 flagstaff RB21 that I need to mount a bike rack on the back. On this model, I don't have the square bumper. I have a flat bumper. The frame it is welded to is 2" x4" and is steel. A welder told me this was fine and to purchase an adjustable receiver hitch so he could weld it to...

I have had a 2" receiver added to the rear of my Sandpiper 303BH. It was done by a welding shop so no need to discuss how that was done. I am now looking for the best 4 bike carrier for a 2" receiver that will take the bouncing at the back of the TT.

Does anyone know a good way to mount a bike rack to the Rockwood 8312SS TT. Please Im looking for suggestion.:confused:

In viewing forum owner’s photos of their LaCrosse, and those on the PT web site, I notice no rear ladder or rear mounted bike racks. Apparently PT does not offer a ladder or bike rack option, so these items must be dealer options; right? Have any PT owners added either of these two accessories...

We have a Rockwood 8286WS fifth wheel and are looking for bike rack suggestions. I welded a 2' square tube between the frame rails below the bumber with a receiver hitch attached to hold a bike rack. I bought a Yakima bike rack that slides into a recevier to hold four bikes by the top cross...

Hey everyone, The wife and I bought a new tent trailer with the plan of heading west and doing at least 20,000 km in the next 6 months. We are deciding whether to bring bikes because I was worried that the extra drag will drive up fuel costs. What are your experiences with this? We have an...
