What is the best hitch mounted bike rack for 4 bikes?
I want to get a bike rack for my husband for Father’s day. We need a hitch mounted rack that can accomodate 4 bikes. Swing away would be great.
I appreciate any help/opinions.
Thule and Yakima both make great racks. Here is a link to the same rack, but with a private brand on it (Performance Bike).

My buddy owns the Yakima version, I have this one. We’ve looked both over and over and we can’t tell the difference (except mine was $100 less). Holds 4 bikes; swings out of the way; locks to the hitch; and locks all 4 bikes to the rack. What more could you want? It does hold the bikes by the top tube however.
Good Luck!
