I'm not an engineer, but I don't think there really isn't that much lateral stress while riding. Even in turns, most if not all stress goes down through the wheels and tires. If there was much lateral stress, I would think that riders would be falling all the time.Far far less lateral stress than being ridden in a lot of situations.
Good point! Although a lot, 50% +/-, of the bike is usually hidden by the car or tailgate.Isn't that the case with every hitch mounted bike rack in the market?
