Overview
A tilting hitch mount bike rack built for two bikes on a standard 2-inch receiver, rated for 160 lbs total and tires up to 5 inches wide. Padded clamps and a locking hitch pin hold the bikes while a tilt-back release keeps trunk access open without unloading.
Fat tire and e-bike owners tend to run into two walls with cheap racks: the clamps aren't wide enough for the tire, and the unit won't fold flat enough for garage storage. Trailxpert addresses both directly, and the anti-theft locking pin is worth noting since a basic hitch pin is an easy target in a parking lot. There's no review history yet on this listing, so treat the load rating and fit claims as manufacturer-stated until buyer feedback builds up.
- 160 lb total capacity across two bikes
- Fits tires up to 5 inches wide
- Tilt-back quick release for trunk access
- Foldable design for compact storage
Who it's for
Suits drivers of cars, SUVs or trucks with a 2-inch hitch receiver who need to carry two bikes, including heavier e-bikes or fat tire models up to 5 inches wide. Less suited to anyone needing a rack for a 1.25-inch receiver, since this is built for the 2-inch size only.
Pros and cons
- Tilt-back access without removing bikes
- Fits e-bikes and fat tires up to 5 inches
- Locking hitch pin plus anti-theft pin
- Folds flat for storage
- No review history to confirm real-world durability
- 2-inch receiver only, no 1.25-inch option
- 160 lb total cap is tight for two e-bikes
Performance notes
The tilt-back mechanism is the functional core here: a quick-release lets the loaded rack drop away from the bumper for trunk or tailgate access, then locks back into position without pulling the bikes off first. Shock absorption in the mounting hardware and an anti-theft locking pin are meant to keep the rack from rattling or walking off the receiver, and the padded clamps with adjustable wheel holders let it flex between narrow road tires and 5-inch fat tires on the same rack.
