A multilevel bicycle rack comprising a pair of vertical supports having two pair of rearwardly extending arms to support a plurality of bicycles or, optionally, bicycles in combination with other items. A pair of diagonal cross braces extend upwardly from attachment to the opposite side of the bumper from the attachment of the pair of vertical supports. A third vertical support extends upwardly to a forward extension of the upper arms with the upper arms and diagonal braces attached to the pair of vertical supports toward the top of the vertical supports. Despite the fact that the upper pair of rearwardly extending cantilevered arms are 12 to 15 times the bumper thickness above the bumper no additional attachment connections to the motor vehicle are needed above the bumper to counter the cantilevered loading of the arms.
