That hitch is rated for double the tongue weight of the Twin Hitch and unlike Draw-Tite and Curt, is available with an optional 2" receiver, making it much more versatile as long as you don't intentionally overload it..
The best tray racks are made by: 1Up, Kuat, and Yakima. Pick one and enjoy.
Buy once, cry once, and cheaper than body work or fixing a bike that's been dragged behind a car on the highway. |
You forgot Swagman. I love my Sitkka 2, I've put about 15k miles on it with quite the variety of different bikes back there. It costs quite a bit less than the comparable offerings from the companies you mentioned.
