Towing a camping trailer with bikes on the back? The Arvika AVK7000H2 lets you pull the bike rack off the trailer and mount it directly to your tow vehicle or secondary vehicle hitch -- no trailer required. Steel and aluminum construction with an integrated support arm keeps the rack stable on the road.
Many RV and camping setups use an Arvika bike rack mounted to the trailer's hitch receiver. The AVK7000H2 is the purpose-built solution for riders who want to break away from the trailer -- load up the bikes and head to a trailhead using a truck, SUV, or tow vehicle without hauling the full rig.
The adapter bridges the gap between a trailer-specific rack mount and a standard 2-inch vehicle hitch receiver. The included support arm adds rigidity and reduces side-to-side sway, which is especially important when carrying multiple bikes at highway speeds.
Combines steel structural members with aluminum components for a durable, corrosion-resistant design that keeps weight manageable at 20 lbs.
The integrated support arm increases lateral stability, reducing rack sway when carrying bikes on uneven roads or at highway speeds.
Designed to fit most standard vehicle hitch receivers, allowing easy transfer of your Arvika trailer-mounted bike rack to a second vehicle.
At 28 x 18 x 6 inches, the adapter stores easily in a truck bed, RV basement, or cargo area when not in use.
The AVK7000H2 is engineered for the RV lifestyle, where flexibility matters. Common scenarios include:
The adapter body is constructed from a combination of steel and aluminum. Steel provides structural rigidity at the hitch interface and support arm connection points, while aluminum reduces overall weight. The result is a 20 lb adapter -- heavy enough to feel solid, light enough to handle without a second person.
Manufactured in Canada, the AVK7000H2 reflects Arvika's focus on purpose-built RV cycling accessories rather than generic rack hardware.
The adapter inserts into a standard vehicle hitch receiver. The support arm is positioned and secured to reduce flex. Your existing Arvika bike rack then mounts to the adapter using the same interface it uses on the trailer. No special tools are required for the transfer in most applications.
