Firstly, their sturdy construction and secure attachment to the vehicle's hitch receiver ensure stability and minimize the risk of damage during transportation. The hitch mounting also allows for easy loading and unloading of bikes, eliminating the need to lift them onto the roof. Moreover, hitch racks typically have a higher weight capacity, accommodating multiple bikes and various frame sizes. Their versatility extends to compatibility with different hitch sizes, accommodating diverse vehicles. Finally, hitch-mounted racks often provide convenient features like folding mechanisms for compact storage and quick access to the vehicle's rear cargo area.
