Bike Rack on Bumper of RV

[Bette]

We are new at this, just bought 324RLQ 08' Mountaineer, would like to add a bike rack on the bumper. We bought at camping world a Swagman 2 bike carrier to hook on the bumper. It has two shelves and one rod all made of steel. I can carry the box. Do you think it would be OK to use? Any other suggestions? I know we don't want a ladder rack.

Welcome to MOC.
I have no experience with that type of rack but it seems to be designed just for that application. Make sure the handle bars and the pedals will not impact the camper with a significant bump. Stop and check it , several times, especially on your first trip out. The bikes may seem secure when you start out but they can do some crazy things once you get going.

Are you sure your Mountaineer has a back bumper?
