Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the replacement wheel hoops for Swagman XTC series bike racks. This part number replaces the left and right side wheel hoops for your Swagman XTC bike rack. It is a direct replacement, so they're identical to the ones that originally came on your bike rack. It installs on the rack with the included knobs. And the knob is attached to a bolt. And then we have the plastic shims.It's a really nice design.
Also, it comes with new rubber straps for each wheel hoops. So once you have your bike installed on the rack, this goes over. And then you line up one of the holes with the stay-put on the other side, and attach it. And that's going to secure your bike in place on the rack. This'll work with the Swagman XTC series platform style two-bike rack for inch and a quarter, and two inch hitches, part number S64670.
And the Swagman XTC series platform style four bike rack for two inch hitches, part number S64665.That's going to do it for today's look at the replacement wheel hoops for Swagman XTC series bike racks.

Replace a set of damaged wheel hoops on your Swagman XTC Series bike carrier. Knobs, bolts and shims are included for mounting hoops to bike rack.This is exactly what I needed. I have a mountain bike with dual suspension. I also have the swagman xc2 with original wheel hoops. My mtb didn't sit well in the original hoops so I bought these ones which are a PERFECT FIT. Now I can confidently put a road bike and mtb on my bike rack
Changed the wheel hoops on my Swagman XC2 bike rack to extend the largest wheel base from 52" to 64" just by changing the hoops! Great way to make my rack work for me rather than buying another one when this one was still in mint condition. And eTrailer service has been outstanding. I'm glad they stock parts for Swagman racks!
Product was as described. This was a replacement part for our existing bike rack, and fit the rack. The part was shipped the same day it was ordered and arrived as scheduled two days later. Two status emails were sent.
Service was excellent and I would definitely order from eTrailer again. No complaints.
Already owned bike rack but, in backing up auto, damaged an important part. Contacted etrailer.com via the web, found the part I needed to replace, ordered it, and three days later it arrived. Quick service and quality product. Prefect!
If the bike rack is exposed to moisture, salt water or salt on the roads rust can form. It is a good idea to remove the pins every once and a while and spray the bike rack down with fresh water. It is also a good idea to remove the bike rack from the hitch when not in use.
--This is a very good product, quickly delivered in great condition, and at a very good price! We've been using this product on our car for a year now and it still works and looks like new (and we don't keep or car in a garage)!
Had to replace this bar following a slight accident backing up the vehicle on which the full bike rack is installed. The rack held up very well, all things considered. Just had to replace two pieces, which was the more economical choice vs buying a whole new rack. Have absolutely NO COMPLAINTS. Shipping expedient, customer service on the ball with excellent follow up without being prodded. The item is exactly as explained and was very easy to install-- only took a few minutes to get the bike rack back to new condition. I will copy this exact review for part #SP478 that also needed replacement related to this repair. Don't hesitate to buy from or deal with this company!
After a backing-up accident, I damaged not only my bike, but also the right bar and wheel support on my bike rack. I assumed that I would have to buy another rack, but found that I could purchase the two damaged parts from etrailer.
The rack is as good as new, and I use it quite often.
Thanks, etrailer!
I've owned a Swagman XTC 2-Bicycle Rack since 2013 and have used it for many local and long-distance hauls. It was easy to assemble and to use, and it has been reliable. Although I have not given this piece of equipment the TLC that it deserves, it has held up well. When, due to a stupid error in dismantling one of the cradles, I had to order a replacement, I was able to purchase it at a very reasonable price and had it shipped to me very quickly. I still think this bicycle carrier was a great investment -- especially for the price -- and would recommend it confidently to anyone interested in a light-weight easy-to-use carrier.
I ordered these to replace the oval loops of the Swagman XC2, after having my $2500 mountain bike shoot off the rack as I went around the corner. The front suspension on the bike gave just enough for the tire to start coming out of the oval, and with the top bar of the bike on an angle, it became loose and shot off the rack. After that I started adding a nylon strap from the handlebar stem of the bike back to the center upright of the bike rack and adding a strap around the front tire and oval loop of the XC2.
I Would never buy this again. It has rusted and the button to release the bikes gets stuck often so I carry a tool that helps to put pressure on it to open it. I mtn. bike a lot so keep the rack on my car. Wish I had spent the extra money and bought a heavy and sturdy rack like a Kuat or a One Up. However, if you ride infrequently and will be taking the rack off every time you use it, you may have better luck. You get what you pay for here....cheap price, cheap product.
The bike rack part I ordered showed up as they said it would and the telephone support was great. What I liked most about it is that the newer version is actually better made than the original was so I suspect it should last much longer. I will likely order another for the other side of the rack.
I bought these to replace the default tire hoops on my recently purchased swagman xc-2 bike rack. I own a 29" wheeled bike and the default tire hoops while good, didn't leave me feeling confident enough for my type of bike, when taking corners in my car. I purchased these and literally received them 10 minutes ago. I took off the default tire hoops and installed these. Very easy to install, like they were meant for this rack. The tire hoops do not accomadate the wider tire size as the default tire hoops that came with this bike rack. I have a 29"x2.6" Maxxis Rekon for front tire and it fits snuggly, but not difficult to get in and out of this tire hoop, be mindful of this before ordering these or get the tire hoops meant for "fat bike" tires. I love the straps that secure the wheels of the bike. I now have 3 securing points of contact vs. 1.
Thanks for the quick help getting my bike rack back together.
Got hit in a parking lot in Huntsville Al.
Didnt know until daylight that I had a problem.
We were on our way to Cape San Blas Fl for a month,
Found a Guy in Appalachacola Fl about 30 miles east.
Damage was front wheel was gone. Called Bike Line in Carmel, In and they ordered a new front wheel and some small parts. Shipped to Appala------
Talked to James and ordered wheel hoops and a bar that the hoops fit on.
Bike and Bike Rack are ready for pick up today.
Great service from everyone.
This was a replacement part for our swagman bike rack that got crushed by our truck. The customer service was excellent!! I spoke with customer service and they worked with me to make sure it was shipped so that I had it before I left for vacation and in the cheapest way possible.
The Swagman XTC2 bike rack is awesome too, which I also purchased through etrailer.
I absolutely love my bike rack for so many reasons including putting our sandy beach chairs on it, attaching our baby jogger etc. Someone backed up into my car the other day and bent one of the arm hoops. They of course did not leave their name but at least they also did not hit my car. Easy, cheap fix to purchase new wheel hoops! They do come in pairs and I only needed one, but hey if it happened to me once, it will happen again. And who knows maybe the extra hoop will fit on the rack and make itself useful.
Thank you e-trailer for making this a simple fix!
Had to order replacement wheel hoops for my swagman xtc 4 bike rack. They were exactly the same as the original parts. Installed them and the bike rack looks like new. etrailer.com was very easy to order from. Received the parts in 2 days along with free shipping. I will order from etrailer again if I need to.
I have owned the bike rack for several years and love the fact that I don't have to lift anything high. A car ran into my back end, so I had to replace 1 of the bike holders. eTrailer responded extremely fast and kept me informed every step of the way. That's the best service I've received from anyone yet.
The items shipped fast and arrived on time. I will definitely order from etrailer.com again!
This is a great bike rack, easy to use and well constructed. We had to buy a replacement set of the wheel hoops because someone apparently decided we didn't need one! We have now placed bolts thru each end of the bars so the wheel hoops can't readily slide off. That's the only recommendation I would make to the manufacturer.
We ordered our replacement bike rack equipment on a Sunday and it was on our doorstep four days later. We lost our part in a trip and did not think we could replace it - but, etrailer had our part and made it easy to order.
I needed to replace the wheel loop because someone hit and bent it. etrailer had replacements in stock at what I considered a reasonable price. I placed the order and Trailer (George) kept me informed about the shipping. The new parts came a day early and fit perfectly.
etrailer sets and sustains a very high standard of customer care and quality product.
Thanks!

The hoops have been a perfect ad on to my Swagman Bike Rack they are long enough for my Easy Racer recumbent and my tandem.
The wheel hoop was bent in an accident. I only really needed to replace one, but the price was good enough to make buying the set painless. Excellent service, easy to order and received promptly. Price was right and product was as described. Tracking information was easy to use and very accurate. I will be purchasing more from Etrailer.
I accidentally bent a Swagman XTC Series Wheel Hoop and etrailer.com had EXACTLY what I needed to replace it. The order was placed and executed seamlessly, and was delivered quickly. I highly recommend this company.
We love our 4 bike carrier. The rack is a little heavy, but the bikes ride well and they are easy to load. We have recommended it to many of our friends.
