We sell those clamp on hitches for TT bumpers in the parts store. We have them at the parts desk and when someone asks for one, we try to talk them out of it. The parts manager was following a TT with one installed on the road and lost 3 of the 4 bikes on the rack.
That's exactly what I'm trying to avoid. Jayco says the bumper is rated for 150lbs which is well within the weight of two bikes and rack. Add in the bouncing and I'm sure you can easily exceed 200lbs.
Glenn, Can you post up a pic of the strap configuration you use? I cant see how a strap angled like that would prevent the bouncing.
