So I'd love to have a TH but the wife does not so I'm in the same boat but here's a video of a guy fixing a bumper from only carrying bicycles on a curt receiver on a stock 5th wheel bumper.

This is why I would re-enforce any kind of carrier
Just watched that video... I hope that's not you so I don't offend you.. that's a hack job..
the bumper can and probably will still rip off with 4 bikes on there.. He only welded a heavier piece to the tube, and really did not support it more... that will rip at the edge of the patch with any amount of extended flex..
When I had a TT, I bypassed that cheap/formed bumper and got me a 4" square X 3/16" wall piece of steel tube and welded that directly to the frame mounts....
