RockyMounts BackStage Swing-Away 2-Bike Hitch Rack
The RockyMounts BackStage is the industry's first swing-away platform hitch bike rack that provides full rear vehicle access without unloading your bikes. Built on the proven MonoRail platform, the BackStage combines secure frame-free bike transport with a unique 180-degree swing-away design, making it the perfect companion for trucks, SUVs, campers, and overland vehicles.
Whether you're accessing camping gear, coolers, recovery equipment, or the rear cargo area of your vehicle, the BackStage swings completely out of the way—even with bikes fully loaded. Its front-wheel retention system securely carries everything from lightweight road bikes to heavy electric bikes without touching the frame, protecting expensive finishes and carbon fiber components.
Designed exclusively for 2-inch receivers, the BackStage also folds flat against the vehicle when not in use and tilts 30 degrees for quick hatch access. Combined with RockyMounts' premium 3-axis anti-wobble system and integrated locking hardware, it delivers one of the most capable and convenient hitch bike racks available.
