In any case, as a person who regularly carries a mountain bike on trips, I have a Swagman "Towing" Bike Rack that mounts on the hitch bar of my Weight Distributing Hitch. With this rack I can carry up to 3 bikes more-or-less directly over the trailer's tongue and truck hitch area...which is a good place for stability and ease of access. I'm very happy with this rack in terms of both quality and usablity. Got it at Camping World for about $40 less than the local bike shop wanted...and the Camping World store in Denver actually had it in stock.
Bikes can be carried behind the trailer but additional weight in that location will reduce the inherent stability of a TrailManor and I personally don't recommend it.
