TrekTote platform bike rack – foldable 2-bike hitch carrier
Practical, straightforward and built for everyday use — the TrekTote platform bike rack from Leader Accessories makes hauling two bikes a proper doddle. Made for a 2″ hitch, it carries up to 150 lb (about 68 kg) in total, so it’ll happily cope with two road bikes or a pair of heavier e-bikes as long as you stay within the limit. The whole rack folds away neatly when you’re not using it, which is a real bonus if space is at a premium.
easy to use on a daily basis
No faff with straps or fiddly clamps. A quick-tilt release lets the whole platform tip down so you can get into the boot without unloading the bikes. When you’ve finished, it folds up in seconds and you’re good to go. The ratchet-style hook arms are far more dependable than twist knobs, so your bikes stay put on the move.
built to protect your bikes
It’s the little things that count: the locking frame clamps are lined with TPE rather than foam. That gives better protection for paintwork, improved resistance to the weather and less chance of splits or wear over time — especially useful if you’re dealing with grit and salt in winter.
- Individual support bars for each bike — more flexibility about where to hook and secure the frame.
- Adjustable wheel trays slide to fit wheelbases up to 60″ (approx. 152 cm) and tyres up to 5″ (approx. 12.7 cm) wide — so fat-tyre bikes are no problem.
- Anti-wobble bolt reduces movement inside the hitch for a steadier ride; works with a standard 5/8″ pin or a locking hitch pin for extra security.
where this rack really helps
Great for weekend escapes, commuting or cycling holidays when you need to take two bikes. It fits SUVs, vans, motorhomes and many RV setups that accept a 2″ receiver. If you swap between bikes of different sizes, the separate support arms and adjustable wheel holders make life a lot easier. It’s also suitable for e-bikes, provided the combined weight stays within the limit.
Some practical specs to note: item weight is roughly 18.8 kg. The rack folds down for compact storage, and the assembled product dimensions are 131.98 x 74.42 x 75.49 cm. It’s straightforward to fit, but if in doubt check your vehicle’s tow rating and the hitch receiver before use. All in all, a sturdy, no-nonsense and user-friendly way to carry two bikes without the usual faff.
