Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Rack is very sturdy and heavy duty. Instructions were terrible. Locking hitch pin would not thread correctly and ended up damaging it. Thankfully the threads on rack were fine and I was able to use the non-locking threaded pin. Would like a replacement locking pin ASAP
So far I’ve just assembled it and took a quick test drive around the block. My initial thought is this thing is perfect. It’s super sturdy and easy to use. My only gripe and it’s not fault of the rack, but it’s heavy…

Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
We used this bike trailer to move from San Francisco, CA to Ennis, MT, so a trip of about 1000 miles. Setup: Fairly easy to setup. I was surprised by how heavy the whole thing was, I'd guess the whole bike kit to weigh around 30lbs. Once I had fitted my bikes in and adjusted everything (which is fairly easy) getting the bikes in and out isn't too bad. Getting the front bike in (the one closest to the car's back window) is a bit of a pain since you have to lift it up and behind the rack. Usage: My only real complaint is that the adjustable bars that slide down to hold the bike frame in place are hard to use. You've really got to apply a lot of force to pinch them open so they can slide. I had pushed them down fairly good on the bike so it held them tight and wasn't able to open it again by hand. I had to use a tire pressure gauge sideways to push against it. I wish they had made it easier to open up these things to slide them up and down as it's actually pretty tough.
Love the Swagman Platform XTC-2 bike rack! This the third bike carrier I have bought in two years. I have been frustrated and disappointed with previous purchases. The one is far superior and much easier for me to use, definetly worth the purchase price and can only wish I had found this first and not wasted so much money! So much easier to load and unload my bike and now feel safe transporting it. Thanks to etrailer.com for prompt service and expedition of the product. Happy trails!

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Quick set up, felt secure, no rattle.
It works great! Easy, quick, you know. One needs to screw in the hitch bolt, for some reason, before latching it. Other than that, it makes going bike riding way easier.
What our customers are saying:
"I got my hitch in three days. My husband put it on in less than an hour, he says it fit like a glove, no problems. We we're told by the dealer there wasn't a hitch for my Mazdda 6, I got it for a bike rack. Great service. Thanks"
