About Rear Mounted Motorhome Bike Rack Carriers
Rear mounted bike rack carriers are among the most handy options for bringing your bike on your holiday with you. That's because they offer an easy to store, simple and cost effective way to bring your bikes on the road. Alternative options include roof racks or trailers, which can be a more costly and a less practical solution. Before you do anything, it's important to know that not all racks will fit all models. So, be sure to check the rack is appropriate for your vehicle. It should normally state this on the product listing or in the manufacturer guide, but if you're not sure, you can always ask us!
Things to consider
Consider the amount of bikes you need. For example, is there a mix of adults and kids bikes? Perhaps the kid’s bikes will fit inside your camper? How often you plan on using your campervan bike rack should also factor into your decision. We have identified traits to look out for:
1) Stability Most bike racks will fit one or two bicycles without a problem. If you are adding more to this, make sure it can guarantee stability.
2) Weight Adding weight to your camper can affect your fuel efficiency so lightweight bike racks are worth looking into.
3) Price Rear mounted campervan bike racks are generally the least expensive of any bike rack. Prices can vary, so it is important to set a budget before you look for your bike rack.
4) Security Make sure to check you can lock bikes in place and that the bike rack will be secure on your vehicle. Do you plan on leaving it unattended for long periods of time or are you just using the rack for transporting?
5) Safety Motorhome bike racks are built for specific campers, so ensure to check before buying if it fits your camper. Bike rack carriers should not block your mirrors, number plates, or lights.
