You are more likely to be limited by the combined weight of the bikes and trailer on your towbar. If you have a normal car the maximum weight on the tow bar would be about 70/80kgs, so one or two bikes with the trailer.
What's the maximum tow bar weight on your camper?

Ring MaxxRaxx and give them all your details ... they'll calculate an accurate response for your set up.
They offer an excellent service.
I've carried three without an extension, all adult bikes ... so, I'd have thought that four kids bikes, with possibly, an extension, should be fine.

We have a MaxxRaxx but found that with the storage box on the front of the raclet there wasn't enough clearance....

Nope, we have a luggage rack on the trailer so I put the two kids bikes on that as we had a couple of roof top bike racks any way and didnt bother taking ours with us.
however, we are getting a globetrotter at the weekend and I have my doubts that the the luggae rack with extent enough to fit the extra length so I may need to look at the extension for the maxxraxx as i dont really want to remove the storage box as we have limited boot space being a small car...
