Bike rack

Hi we recently purchased a mpg cruiser 2550rb

just wondering if anyone has any input on bicycle carriers? We would prefer to get one that goes on the tongue of the trailer as opposed to a bumper hitch style. Just looking for one that carries 2 adult bicycles

Bike Bunk and Jack-It are two that I have used. Pros and cons to both. But they accomplish the task.

Bike Bunk does require a hitch style bike rack of your choice to go with it

I like the Bike Bunk better.
Since you're in Canada, the original A-frame mounted bike rack system, is a Canadian-made product.

The company is Arvika:
http://www.arvika.ca/en/

Their products are very expensive in the states but probably more affordable for you.
They've been around for years.

I did not catch the OP was in Canada. I had the Arvika rack and it was expensive to have delivered to the US but this was 5-6 years ago and only option.

OP, the Arvika rack is an excellent rack.. I really liked mind.

We got an Avrika and love it. You have to be able to lift your bikes up, but it works great.
