Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
I was sent additional mounting materials that don't correspond with my hitch or my bike rack. See the photo below. Are these materials for my Swagman STC2 Bike Rack Item #S64670?
Very stable and simple to use bike rack that works great with my road bike AND with my 29" Big Rippers. It makes loading and unloading the bikes a snap and they are safe and secure for traveling once loaded and secured. I have already logged over a thousand miles hauling bicycles with this rack and highly recommend it. I am a big fan of Yakima roof racks but, honestly, wish I would have went with this setup for my bikes from the beginning.

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Works as expected. The hardware kit didn't didn't contain a proper pin to lock the rack to the hitch. I used a 10mm bolt and nylock nut.
Purchased for our 2016 Chevy Volt. We mounted it ourselves and was relatively easy. Highly recommend. We use it to carry 2 bicycles.

Kuat Beta Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches - Tilting
This bike rack was very easy to install and is lightweight and easy to handle. It is well made, and after watching the videos on your website I felt like a pro. It fit the car exactly as shown, clears the trunk easily. I put it on a small sports car so weight was a factor. It holds the bike very secure with four straps.
The quality of the bike rack was excellent, but I was unable to use it because I couldn't open and close my trunk (Honda Accord 2012) when the bike rack was closed. It may have worked if I had a different trailer hitch, but I didn't want to spend the extra money on a new trailer hitch. Unfortunately, I will need to return the bike rack.

Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Gunmetal Gray
I'm so very happy with this rack!! It was fairly easy to assemble love the sturdy feel. Maiden voyage today the two Ebike's loaded easily and were secured. I think I made the right choice. Thank you
Love the fit and solid quality build of this bike carrier. Can't wait to try it out. I am using this carrier for two e-bikes and I am confident that it will hold up very nicely and will have no problem holding the weight of the 2 bikes.

RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount
Info shared by manufacturer for display on all web sites is different than that shared in product manual. "Weight capacity (per bike): 60 lbs. Add-on weight capacity: 40 lbs." For a 2 rack carrier, this implies it's 60#/bike. It's not. It's only 60# if only 1 bike. When add on the rack for the 2nd bike, it drops weight capacity for both bikes. So our 35# and 47# bikes can no be carried by this carrier. 2nd: No amount of struggle on our part could enable is to attach the 2nd rail. Can't remember now if holes didn't align, or screw/bolt couldn't be joined. But shouldn't have to hire someone to re-engineer screws/bolts. As a single rack, it's nice. But we wanted a double rack and this doesn't do what info implied.
Overall this is a good rack. It's very easy to use and requires no effort to get a bike mounted in seconds! It also can handle my fat bike with 4 inch tires. I did buy an extension from etrailer so I counld haul another bike. This extension ONLY has two short bolts to secure it to the rack which come loose all the time. Not a very good design and one of the bolts has stripped from having to tighten it so much. Needless to say I am disappointed and somewhat worried about putting a bike on the extension. If I did not have an extension for a secound bike I would have given this rack a much higher rating.

Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Gray
I love this bike rack! I drove from California to Maine last summer with 2 bikes on the back of a Chevy volt. Very sturdy, and easy to get bikes on and off. Also like the way it tilts so I can get into the hatch.
We love this bike rack for its ease of use and solid construction. Bikes are quick and easy to load in and lock down tight. The hitch-receiver tightening system works great for a wobble-free rack and the hinge and locking lever work smooth and solid. It looks nice too.

Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Gray
etrailer was prompt to answer my questions regarding whether this rack would work with my Chevy Volt. Best price out there, quick delivery, easy assembly and installation. Love this rack! And I am on my way cycling!
After doing extensive research before buying my first ever bike rack, I chose the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 platform rack. I considered trunk mounted, hanging and platform racks before settling on a platform rack. I like the stability, the ease of loading and unloading and very importantly, the absence of contact with the frame of my bike. My bike has a beautiful paint job that I want to preserve. I looked at lots of racks online and at a bike shop and opted for the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 because of the excellent engineering, including the design of the packaging that becomes a work bench for assembling the rack, the relatively light weight (32 pounds), the inclusion of a hitch lock and a bike lock, the stability of the platform, even with a 1.25" connection and a class I hitch, and the ease of operation. Additionally, the overall appearance of the rack suggests high quality. Time will tell how well it ages but I'm pretty confident that I'll be pleased with it. I was very fortunate to find a used, like new Kuat via Etrailer at a meaningful discount that still qualified for the manufacturer's warranty! Thank you Etrailer! A tip to pass along that was shared with me, U-Haul is an excellent source for buying and installing hitches to accommodate bike racks - very attractive pricing, high quality installation and a super unlimited lifetime warranty. Can't wait for Spring and the chance to transport my bike to inviting riding venues!! PS The hitch and bike rack work very well with my 2011 Honda Accord Coupe, EXL V6 model that remains in excellent condition.
What our customers are saying:
"A couple months ago, I ordered a hitch & bike rack for my new 2005 Saturn VUE. Everything about the order was fast and easy. When my father bought a 2006 VUE, he wanted the same hitch, but it was not listed on the site. I contacted customer service and quickly received a response informing me that they were waiting for details on the new model. The next day I had another email saying it was available, less than an hour later, my order was placed and I had a "shipped" email. Outstanding service!"
