Depends on the type of rack, and where the ladder is. Can you provide a picture and model number of the rack?
I have an 831RESS with ladder on right side. Following instructions my bike wheels would extend over a foot past the right edge of the trailer. My solution was to hang the bikes backwards from instructions, that is with wheels to the left. The bikes don't fit the rack as well due to interference with the sprockets and gears but it is manageable.

Thank you for letting me know there is a solution. I wonder if there is a better bicycle rack that allows for the left or right mount? Which rack did you buy? Others may want to know which one it is and know that it can work.
The bike rack I have was made by Christianson Industries, model 493433. It was supplied by ForestRiver, as an option, when I purchased my Flagstaff trailer.
We got our ladder bike rack from campers world. Holds 2 bikes. Mount bikes vertically, back of bike facing up, front of bike facing down, handle bars to the outside. Bikes hang from center post of bike that extends from under the seat. Have had it for 6 years. Last year went out west over 3000 miles with no problems. On sale right now at campers world.
