4-Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying Trek Marlin 5 and Kids Bike
Question:
Hello, I am wondering what rack would be best to transport 3 Marlin 5s and a kids bike. Would this even be possible to do with one rack? We have a 2 inch hitch. Thanks in advance!

To carry three Trek Marlin 5 mountain bikes and a kids bike is definitely possible. We have 4 bike racks that would work great with all of the bikes you mentioned. I would recommend a platform bike rack as they are easier to load and also hold the bikes much more securely. For that the Thule T2 Classic 4 bike rack part # TH9044-TH9046 would be an excellent option. This bike is very well made, is easy to load/unload, and also only touches the bikes by the tire so it protects the finish of the bikes by not touching the frame.
