Mid-range platform hitch rack expandable to 4 bikes
Last reviewed: March 2026
At a glance
Why this product
A platform hitch rack expandable to four bikes — start with two and add the extension when you need it. Fat tire compatible, tilt-away, fold-flat, integrated locks for bikes and hitch, carbon-frame-safe. At 54 lbs with steel construction, it is heavier than aluminum alternatives but typically more affordable. The 40 lb per-bike limit handles standard bikes. I recommend this as a good-value platform rack for people who might grow into needing four bikes carried.
