1 & 2 Bike Hitch Racks

About

Get your bikes to the trailhead, the bike path, or the next adventure with 1 and 2 bike hitch racks from ERIK'S. Compact, capable, and built for regular use, single and two bike hitch racks are the most popular bike transport solution for good reason. They mount securely to your vehicle's hitch receiver, load bikes at a comfortable working height, and deliver the stability and security of a hitch-mounted system without the bulk or cost of a larger rack. Whether you are a solo rider heading out alone or a couple loading up for a weekend ride, a 1 or 2 bike hitch rack gets the job done cleanly and reliably every time.

Anti-Rattle and Anti-Wobble Systems All hitch racks have some play at the receiver connection. Quality racks include tightening bolts, locking levers, or built-in anti-rattle mechanisms that minimize side-to-side movement and keep your bikes stable at highway speeds.
