Description

Meet the Piston Pro X hitch rack. This all-metal bike rack can safely transport bikes and electric bikes weighing up to 67 lbs. per tray. With just one tap, the pneumatic arms open wide and adjust to fit your bike tire perfectly, with no contact with the frame.

And you won’t need any adapters or tools to fit small to beefy tires. Just squeeze and slide the adjustable wheel chocks to hold 18”-29” tires.

The integrated LED taillights synchronize seamlessly with your car, truck, SUV, or RV, providing enhanced rear visibility and on-road safety.

A provided hitch lock and semi-integrated 12mm cable lock makes sure your bike stays locked up tight while looking tight.

And we went there with a touch of Kashima. It’s beautiful and amazingly durable.

These features culminate in a bike rack designed, built, and tested to push the envelope and provide you with unparalleled ease of use, peace of mind, and lasting value.
