All Things Bikes and Tacos! (...and every vehicle imaginable)

This would work great for your setup instead of having to install a rack on your trailer. I have one and it works great

 

Those can be nice but you need to watch the weight on them, anything that is an extender can reduce the weight capacity by 50%, if you put too much on it, I've seen pictures of where they have snapped at the weld.

 

Good point if that's the case. That may be an issue with pulling a travel trailer

 

Those are really nice, I have one... but have been nervous to tow the camper with it. My rack I got on the tongue works for now but always looking for better solutions!

 

I feel like the road bikes are not represented enough......

 

hahaha JK Its a good way to stay in shape just not as fun...

 

Get at least one windoor if you can.... It makes life so much easier. I wish I would’ve done that but was trying to save some cash and now it’s like 400 dollars to add one on!
This is what I use on my camper.. kind of a pain to put bikes on but works well depending on the shape of the front of your camper and how long the tongue is. Bikes could contact topper if you turn really sharp but hasn’t been a problem for me yet.

Does anyone know of a good tailgate pad that small enough to fit on a first GEN tailgate

Yeah I wouldn't tow very much with one of those, maybe my jet ski, I know my camper is only 1200lbs dry weight but still worries me on the reduced capacity.

Maybe something like this, it's not an extender.

I want the front sliding, two side and the rear, I'll have to ask what it all comes with as it was not very descriptive in the quote, when I built it online it seems it had static side windows which I'm fine with.

I've looked at those, with my teardrop it won't work at all, look at the tongue, there is a basket in the way lol. That spot was designed specifically for a 2000w generator. The non-boondock models don't have it standard. I still prefer the idea of it being inside of the truck with at least a locking t-handle to keep the honest thieves away.

 

Who makes that camper? That thing is awesome!

 

nuCamp RV, they are a local maker here in Ohio. They make larger models you can stand inside of as well as truck bed campers too.

If anyone needs one of these and is in the Dallas area, let me know. I have one laying in the garage that I’m not using.

 

Both a good brands. I looked at the specs of the HT2 vs the Deore 27.5+ since they are the 2 most similar build sets. They are pretty dead-nuts even in build. It's a toss up which I would go with. The only thing that would make me go with the Salsa over the Norco is that you can get the Timberjack at REI which gets you free shipping, assembly/setup, first service, and a nice dividend back that you could scoop up a few pieces of riding kit or better parts down the line.

 

Did someone say bikes and tacos

 

Anyone mount bike racks to a Prinsu Designs rack?? What mount did you go with, and how did you mount it to the rack??

Pictures would be great!

 

Agreed except bikes are excluded from dividend earning

 

Thanks for the response! We are going to decide pretty soon and I'll post some pics once we do!
