The hitch mounted bike rack we have actually uses a threaded hitch pin with lock washer and cotter pin. Bolted down tightly enough, the bike rack shouldn't move at all.
Yes, most racks I've looked at have that threaded hitch pin. Definitely understand why its needed for a bike rack mounted this way, but it has one drawback as well, I think: Taking off and putting the bike rack on is a bit more tedious, since you have to have a wrench and screw in (or out) that threaded hitch pin.
I'm wondering if a better solution would be to use a regular hitch pin, and use a hitch immobilizer? Well, I guess the immobilizer would create the same drawback, of making putting on and taking the rack off more tedious.
