Swagman RV and Camper Bike Racks - S52SR
- RV Frame Rack
- 2 Bikes
- Travel Trailer
- Fat Tire Bikes
- Heavy Bikes
- Hanging Rack
- Swagman
- Bike Lock
- Frame Mount
Carry 2 bikes on the front of your travel trailer when the back of the rig is not the right spot. Telescoping legs work around propane tanks and generators, locking hooks help steady bikes on rough roads, and the post folds up at camp.
Highlights
- Carry Bikes on the Front of Your Travel Trailer: Front-mounted design keeps bikes off the back of your rig, which can help when rear-mounted racks are not the right fit.
- Works Around Propane Tanks and Generators: Articulating, telescoping legs adjust to clear common front-of-trailer setups.
- Keep Bikes Stable on Rough Roads: Locking ratchet hooks help hold bikes in position so they stay put when the pavement is less than friendly.
- Stows Upright When You Are Not Riding: Folding upright post lets the rack store more compactly so it is not always in the way at camp.
- Fits Fat Tires and E-Bike Style Tires: Wheel trays fit tires up to 5" wide so wider tires are not an instant deal breaker.
Features to know about
Front-of-Trailer Carry That Adapts to Your Setup
The front of a travel trailer rarely looks the same from rig to rig. Some have dual propane tanks, some have a generator tray, and some have both. The Stratus uses articulating, telescoping legs so you can position the rack around what is already there, then load your bikes up front instead of trying to make room on the rear bumper. Instead of checking your rear cameras constantly to make sure your bikes are still there, you'll know it's solid on your trailer so you can focus on your ride ahead.

I was very happy with the overall design and quality of the bike rack, especially the adaptability in the mounts and tubular uprights to allow for variations in trailer design, sizing and spacing for optional equipment that the rack has to fit over or around. Tube stock is fairly beefy without being overkill and adding excessive weight, especially since the bulk of the weight will contribute toward added trailer tongue weight. My only gripe is that I ran into a problem during assembly that took a little extra time to clean up and fix to make the rack useable. The main crossbar mount tubes had leftover beadblasting media stuck inside that appeared to have then been coated in powdercoat and baked into the hole that the upright tubes telescope into, keeping the crossbar from sliding down anywhere near the "minimum insertion" height for proper mounting. Spent some time with a chisel getting the powdercoated media broken up and cleand out of the tubes and it assembled fine from then on. Other than that, very happy with the product and would highly recommend it for those with limited mounting options and in need of unique rack that allows bikes to come along on the trip!

- Options For Mounting 2 Bikes On Tongue Of 2025 Forest River RPod 171 Teardrop CamperHey Sherri! The Lets Go Aero Jack-It PLUS Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # LGA47ZR does indeed mount using the same bolts and bolt holes as your trailer jack. Why do you think it won't work? Did you measure and you don't have enough room? It requires a jack that is no taller than 22-1/2". If you have too tall of a jack or something else in the way, we can look at alternative solutions. I really like the Swagman Stratus Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - RV Frame Mount # S52SR which mounts to the side...
view full answer... - Bike Rack Recommendation for 2025 Safari Condo Alto F2414Hey David, so we can help but we don't have any hitches that are designed to attach to a 2 inch by 3 inch bumper so you would want to go a different route. What about carrying the bikes above the propane tanks with the Swagman Stratus Bike Rack part # S52SR which attaches to the trailer frame around the propane tanks for a way to carry two bikes easily.
view full answer... - Will the Lets Go Aero Jack-It PLUS Bike Rack Fit a Rockwood 19OTG Without Hitting the Tow Vehicle?Hey Tom! Yes, the Lets Go Aero Jack-It PLUS # LGA47ZR should give you some flexibility here since the upper V-shaped section rotates 360 degrees. I would use that adjustment to position the bikes so they stay clear of both the front of your Rockwood 19OTG and your Toyota Highlander. The tow vehicle is generally less likely to have a clearance issue during turns since the bikes sit back over the trailer tongue, but I would still check everything through a sharp turn before traveling. You...
view full answer... - Will The Swagman Stratus Bike Rack Fit A 2019 Airstream Bambi? Hello Peter, thanks for reaching out. The Swagman Stratus # S52SR is a bike rack that mounts to the trailer tongue. It does not have any kind of built-in hitch receiver. I think you might be referring to the "backbone" portion of the platform. That part is a square tube, but it is not a hitch receiver, so it couldn't be used for mounting any kind of hitch accessory. That would be kind of cool if it did, but I am not sure what a built-in 2" receiver in that location would be used for. Just...
view full answer... - Can I Use the Swagman Stratus Bike Rack Without the Telescoping Legs? Hi Drew, I spoke with a representative at Swagman about the Stratus Bike Rack part # S52SR and they do not recommend altering the bike rack or attempting to install it without the telescoping bars/legs. The telescoping bars narrow as they go up to fit into the top bar that is the base of the rack that the horizontal bars that support the wheels sit on. The top bar is also not wide enough to install directly into the vertical bars that are coming up from attaching to the trailer frame....
