Why We Like The MonoRail Solo Platform Hitch Rack
Your friends are great and all, but they have the tendency to slow you down out on the trail. So say no to the boring group ride, secure your bike to the RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Platform Hitch Rack, and head out for some serious one-on-one bonding time with your favorite singletrack loop.
Lightweight, compact, and easy to use, this hitch bike rack quickly loads your bike with platform wheel trays and ratcheting arms for a confident drive to the trailhead, and then folds against the car with a quick-release handle to tidy things up after you've put the bike away for the day. Two separate components that fit both 1.25-inch and 2-inch hitch receiver sizes come included in the box to get you on your way as quickly as possible, while the included anti-wobble locking hitch bolt keeps the rack tight and secure on the drive there and back again. RockyMounts also tossed in some locks to fasten the rack to your car, and then the bike to the rack, with just one key for simple convenience.

Great solo rack
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I own a Yakima Ridgeback 5 since and it was fine since I use it to carry my family's bikes but 95% of the time I only need it for my bike. For that purpose it wasn't as useful because you have to lower the rack even without a bike in order to access the trunk. It also sticks out a fair amount and you need to use a special bar to load MTBs. This Rockymount solved those problems and I'm very happy with it. With no bike loaded I can once again access my rear trunk using the remote without lowering the hitch rack. I can load my MTB without any additional equipment. The included lock is also thicker and longer than the Yakima lock which makes securing it easier and more reliable. There is some assembly involved. Nothing difficult and all tools are included but the printed instructions are lacking. The installation video on youtube is much more helpful. This rack is also very affordable compared to other solo or dual racks I researched. Highly recommend this for solo cyclists.
