Wildroad hitch bike rack, wobble-free tilting 2-bike rack, fits 2-inch receiver
This Wildroad WR-BR-01 hitch rack is designed to make taking bikes away a doddle rather than a faff. It carries two bikes up to a combined 180 lb (about 82 kg), so it’ll handle standard road bikes, mountain bikes, heavier e-bikes and even fat-tyre machines. The rack bolts into a standard 2-inch receiver and is aimed at anyone who wants a solid, no-nonsense carrier that won’t rattle itself to bits on the motorway.
Why choose this rack?
Want something that stays steady whether you’re doing motorway miles or bumping along a bridleway? This rack uses a no-wobble fastener and an anti-rattle stabiliser to cut down shake and annoying movement. Foam-padded hooks and robust nylon straps hold frames securely without scalping the paint, while adjustable tyre holders cope with different wheel widths. It’s the sort of kit that lets you head off for a weekend ride or a family cycling holiday with proper peace of mind.

- Protective contact points: foam-padded frame hooks and soft Velcro tyre straps protect paintwork while keeping bikes snug.
- Foldable and tiltable design: folds flat for storage and tilts down so you can access the boot without removing the rack.

Technical specifications and practical notes
Model: WR-BR-01. Item weight approximately 16.9 kg. Product dimensions roughly 74.9 x 37.8 x 25.9 cm. Load capacity 180 lb total. Designed for a 2-inch receiver. The rack suits SUVs, trucks and off-road vehicles, but always check your vehicle’s hitch rating and local regulations when carrying large or heavy bikes, especially e-bikes. If you’ve got very wide tyres or unusually shaped frames, the adjustable hooks and Velcro straps will cover most cases, though extremely oversized tyres may need extra care or specific adapters.
Typical uses and tips
- Weekend escapes: quick to load and secure, so you’re not faffing about before hitting the trail.
- Family days out: carries two bikes neatly and keeps them steady for safe travel.
- E-bike transport: rated for heavier bikes when the load is split between both slots, but always double-check combined weight limits.
- Storage tip: fold the rack up when not in use to save garage space and keep things tidy.
- Safety tip: tighten the no-wobble fastener properly every time and use the anti-rattle stabiliser for a quieter, smoother journey.
Overall, the Wildroad hitch rack is a straightforward, dependable option for riders who want a robust way to carry two bikes without any faff. It strikes a nice balance between convenience, protection and stability — not the flashiest design, but practical and reliable. If you’re unsure about weight limits or whether it’ll suit a particular e-bike, check the bike’s weight and your vehicle’s hitch rating first.
