It fits easily and securely to a tow bar. And holds two bikes no problem. I can actually hold myself up on the frame and it doesn’t move. I was even able to do some tricep dips. So it gave me the confidence the frame was strong enough to drive with bikes on the back. You just need to find the right angles to put the bikes on. Different bikes will have to be adjusted to suit. I put the bikes facing opposite ways so the handle bars don’t hit off each other. I need to remove the seat on one of the bikes. The tyres are high enough off the ground and the exhaust doesn’t seem to cause any problems on the tyres. It takes seconds to install the rack to the tow bar. And about 5 minutes to fit the bikes to the rack. The rubber clips are safe enough to hold the bike to the frame. I was sceptical at first but very happy with the product after using it. I can recommend this for anyone with two bikes and a tow bar. Review: Sturdy and secure - A great item. Does exactly what you expect it too.

So any vehicle equipped with a tow hitch 2” ball will work as long as there is clear space at the rear of vehicle directly above the trailer tow hitch ball. **Q: Does this have a 'tilt' feature so you can open the car boot when attached?** A: No it doesn't tilt but it is easy enough to take off and put back on. **Q: Can I fit this to the towbar of my motor home** A: It fits all toe - bars as far as I'm aware (doesn't move at all) good job **Q: Will it carry a e bike plus a mountain bike** A: Remove the battery of the ebike then weigh it before adding to bike rack. You can use a luggage scale for weighing. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good for anyone with two bikes and a tow bar. *by C***D on 10 April 2021* I wasn’t sure how this was going to work but I read the reviews and decided to buy it.
