I tried the ladder type bicycle rack and determined it was a fiasco waiting to happen. Bought the Curt 2" receiver hitch to put on my rear bumper and used a Swagman bike carrier. Only additional thing I had to do was bolt some reinforcing angle iron from the frame under the bumper. I had a neighbor in Mission, Texas who had brought his bike down from Ohio and the first bump he hit in Kentucky caused the bumper to break the welds from the frame and bend away from the trailer. After seeing that I decided to reinforce with the two 15" angle irons under the rear bumper to the frame. Hauled two bikes all over Texas and Colorado without any incident so far.
