I haven't heard or seen these, but $1200 seems kind of expensive to me. If your bikes are higher end, you may consider a roof rack system. As a cyclist, I sometimes bring expensive bikes camping with us. I can't get used to the idea of having them hanging off the back of a 38' camper, no matter how secure. It's tough to monitor them back there, and theft is also a concern. A good Yakima or Thule roof rack system will cost considerably less and your bikes will be up out of harms way. It can be difficult at first to work out a routine for getting them up there, but I've developed one that works well for me. You can leave the bikes up there, locked, when not in use. Even if your bikes aren't of the higher end variety, $1200 seems like a lot of money to get them around. I've seen some people that have welded a hitch receiver to their pin box. That seems like a reasonable alternative as well.
