This product is no longer available. You still can browse for parts, accessories, and product and installation info here. If you're looking for a new bike rack, check out our available bike racks.
This model of the Sport Rider SE is our hitch bike rack made specifically for recumbent bikes. This version can carry 2 recumbent bikes or 2 ElliptiGO bikes* (up to 72" wheelbase) and can also accommodate an optional 2-bike add on kit.
Also features extra wide wheel holders to keep the bikes 18” apart so there is plenty of clearance for recumbent style seats. Small wheel adapters are also included to fit 16” wheel sizes.

LED Light Compatibility Issues with some vehicles
Some newer vehicles, including the Ford F-150 with a factory-installed tow package, are not compatible with the LED Bar or other LED trailer lighting systems. This is because the vehicle’s tow package or electrical system has been designed to be used with automotive light bulbs. These light bulbs require more electrical current than LED lights. For these vehicles, the LED Bar will either not function at all or function incorrectly. They may also produce a warning light on your dash that one of your light bulbs is out OR cause your turn signals to flash faster than normal. This is because the vehicle “thinks” there is a bulb out due to the low electrical current of the LED.
These vehicles include:
2016-2023 OEM tow package equipped Ford F-Series trucks, sprinter vans,
Expeditions, Excursions, Explorers, Rangers, Broncos, and Mavericks.
Other vehicles include newer Tesla, BMW, Audi, Volvo, Chevrolet, and GMC with OEM tow packages.
For LED Bar users experiencing dashboard warnings or rapidly flashing turn signals, you need to purchase a 4-pin flat to 7-pin round adapter with a built-in electrical resistor. This adapter mimics automotive bulbs' electrical current, potentially resolving compatibility issues. While we cannot guarantee universal compatibility, it has proven effective in most cases. Purchase the adapter at Etrailer.comorAmazon for seamless integration.
