- C_B_ExplorerNo matter what kind of bike carrier you use make sure it is mounted tight (no wiggle or slop) in the receiver tube.
Top bolt holds Thule 2 bike carrier solid in reciever.

Not sure what kind of carrier but to avoid the bouncing it would be subject to on the back of trailer I would look at making a mount for the pin box, haul on the front of trailer.
Mmmkay…. - way2rollNavigator IIIX2 on the swagman. Easy to use, solid and doesn't scratch the bikes. I will say though I've had good luck with a fork mount in the bins where they are totally enclosed.

- ScottGNomadSwagman. I've been using the same one for 16 years and 2 trailers.
I destroyed two other name-brand units before that (and ripped one bumper nearly off). They just couldn't hold up to the movement back there.
