There's been a couple of discussions and examples:
and my Swagman 64664: I haven't towed with mine yet, but it sure looks and feels like a sturdy attachment. Thanks go to CharlieM for the advice! fred EDIT: Whoops! Sorry, not enough coffee! I read tongue mounted as hitch mounted. Not the same. My apologies.

Facebook Rpod owners page has lots of pictures of fabricated bike mounts. A guy in CA has a recent posting of one he is currently building.

Ya, still searching for someone who fabricated a bike rack on the RPod Tongue. I like the idea of the dual hitch though my TV has a rear tire which prevents that. So I keep looking.

The Arvika is spendy, but great. Powder coated aluminum. Tray tips up to access the batteries and LP. Got an adapter for the 2" receiver so we can take it off the Pod and use it on the TV or our Outback. |
