Overview
A driveway with an SUV, van or truck and a two inch receiver is where this MaxxHaul platform rack belongs. Bikes stand in adjustable tire cradles while padded hooks clamp the frames, and the upright post comes off for storage.
Platform trays load bikes by the wheels, so frames with odd shapes ride without a top tube adapter. The per bike weight limit is the clear boundary: heavier e-bikes and fat tire bikes fall outside it. Bike locks and a hitch lock are not listed.
Who it's for
Weekend riders with a larger hitch and two regular bikes will get easy loading from the trays. Owners of heavy e-bikes, fat tire bikes or small car hitches need a different rack.
Pros and cons
- Tray loading suits many frame shapes
- Padded hooks protect frame paint
- Hook height adjusts with quick pins
- Removable post for compact storage
- Weight limit excludes most e-bikes
- Will not fit Class I or II hitches
- Bike or hitch lock not listed
- Short warranty period
Performance notes
Stability comes from the locking knob on the upright post and from the hooks pressing the frame into the tire cradles. Quick pins set the hook height, then knobs fine tune the clamp, so fit depends on setting both for each bike.
