Pilot HM4 - Hitch Mount Platform 4 Bike Carrier

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I love the flexibility of the HM4. It's easy to use as a 2-bike rack for solo rides or expand to 4 when I’m hauling for the crew. It’s sturdy, reliable, and the front-wheel ratcheting system works great on everything from my 29er to my kid’s BMX. One of the best value modular racks out there."

The Pilot HM4 Hitch Mount Platform Carrier is the reliable workhorse of the modular bike rack world—designed to handle everything from solo post-work laps to full-squad adventures. With a two- or four-bike capacity depending on your setup, the HM4 provides long-haul-worthy stability with its powder-coated steel frame and smart platform layout.

Each bike secures via an independent pivoting ratchet arm that grabs the front wheel, keeping delicate carbon or custom frames untouched and secure. The wide wheel cradles and TPU straps accommodate tires up to 5 inches wide, making this rack ideal for everything from fat bikes to road machines. It folds when not in use, and includes key locking security for both the hitch and rack arms. Whether you're headed for the trailhead or crossing state lines, the HM4 ensures your bikes get there safely and ready to rip.
