This one is a sleek looking bike rack and warranted and approved for RV, Trailer & 5th wheels.

It comes with a built in hitch tightener and bike lock at $379 plus tax.

When you shop for this be aware that there is still the previous Version V1 being sold.
Also there is a 2 inch and a 1.25 inch hitch version.
Only the 2 inch hitch version with 2 bikes is approved for RV's with Chassis Mounted Hitch.

It should be noted about this rack it is not rated for E-bikes on the back of an RV as they de-rate the rack to only 40lbs per bike if on an RV. Most e-bike are more than 60lbs (closer to 70lbs). These days as expensive as racks are you should always future proof buy buying over sized racks, you can buy e-bike racks for upto 200lbs that will accommodate standard bikes and e-bikes in case you ever upgrade. This rack is close to the cost of the premium Hollywood e-bike racks that is far more robust . DO NOT US THIS RACK FOR E-BIKES you will likely void the warranty and it is an obvious safety issue. Personally as expensive as e-bikes are I would not risk regardless of the rack on the back of a Montana with more than 8' behind the axel.
