Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
I've been looking a eBike racks for about a month and finally decided on this Swagman rack because it's rated for use on an RV. That's what I needed because it will be on the back of my travel trailer. I had it on my wish list on another site but etrailer had it for $[XX] less, so I jumped on it. It was fairly easy to put together, I installed it on the hitch on my truck so I wouldn't have to wrestle with it on the floor of my garage, that made it easy to assemble. This rack is very well built, and is very solid, it doesn't move while on the hitch on my truck (I installed the RV hardware) so I have no doubt that in will be fine on the back of mhy travel trailer.
So far so good! I have used it on the back of my Jeep Grand Cherokee and on the back of our travel trailer. It is a pretty solid e-bike rack. I would definitely recommend this e-bike rack. We did purchase it for using on our travel trailer, but also works great on the back of our cars, which have 2" hitch receivers. On the travel trailer we also installed a Draw-Tite Hitch, along with a Curt 14" hitch extender for 2" trailer hitches and a Malone anti-rattle hitch lock system. We purchased everything from etrailer. I am very happy with how all of this works together for hauling our e-bikes on the back of our travel trailer.

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
After setting up my new bike rack, I found that the "universal tow hitch adapter" that's used for bigger tow hitches such as my Toyota Tacoma didn't seem to compliment entirely. Attached pictures, you will see that the locking bolt and along with the cotter pin to secure the locking bolt onto the tow hitch doesn't quite reach through all the way across. Therefore, I wasn't able to insert the cotter pin through the locking bolt and couldn't safely secure my bike rack to the tow hitch of my Tacoma. I know the Toyota Tacoma is a very popular vehicle and I recommend all future orders be replaced with a much longer locking bolt (at least 1/2 inch longer) to accommodate truck owners like me. On the contrary, the bike rack does manage to fit onto my Mazda5 Minivan when utilizing the smaller tow hitch (without the universal tow hitch adapter for Class 3 Receiver). The bike rack is very versatile when loading bikes of various sizes and folds up to stow away very conveniently. Overall, great product!!
This Bike Platform Rack is rock-solid and has minimal rattle and sway. Other reviews indicated that it was difficult to assemble (because of the poor directions and illustrations), but I had no problems with putting it together in about 30 minutes. The only issue I had was with the Hitch Pin. It's 3 1/2 inches long and was just slightly shorter than what was needed for my Toyota Tacoma. I contacted eTrailer and they were helpful to the point of contacting Swagman about the issue. They called back and said Swagman's recommended "fix" was to buy the Hitch Pin with a lock (Part # 79540) for an additional $25. This "bait & switch" strategy resulted in the assignment of only 3 stars.

Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
We got the XTC2 to replace an old school rack. It was easy to put together and feels sturdy and well made. We will be using it on a 2016 Civic, 1999 4x4 Tacoma and a Casita Trailer. Looking forward to using it when the weather warms up.
Looks like a good bike rack. I had to get a front receiver hitch and this bike rack so we could take our bikes when we tow our a-frame trailer. The bikes don’t block our view of the road much if the seats are removed.

Swagman Chinook Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
First platform style I've used. It is on a 2016 Toyota Tacoma. I can ALMOST put the tailgate flat, but goes 99% when tilted back to remove items from bed of truck. There is a lot of nice things about this product. The mast lays down and platform fold closer to your vehicle when not in use. It also tilts away from the vehicle to easier load the front bike. The tightening and locking pin is nice and the ratcheting hooks also lock. Was east to assemble. Galvanized hardware is also a nice touch too. Well worth it, I got it on sale anyway. It was a very long time to ship, got held up at the manufacture. Very happy with the Swagman brand!
Works for my fat tire bike. Once it's set up, it's easy to install and remove. I had to cut out some of the plastic cladding on the underside of my bumper on my 2014 Subaru Outback. Good value. I've had no issues.

Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount - Gunmetal Gray
Fantastic bike rack. Switch it between a Honda Ridgeline and a Subaru Outback Wilderness and it works perfectly. Accidentally lost the locking pin that secures the rack to the trailer hitch and when I inquired with Kurt about ordering a replacement lock keyed to match the locking cables on the rack and the Kuat rep sent one to me for free. (I removed the rack and left the lock sitting on my car bumper. Later that day I drove off and lost the lock on the highway).
Great bike rack. It is easy to install the hitch on a vehicle and to remove it. The Kuat NV 2.0 provides a smooth, gentle ride for road bikes and mountain bikes. Great purchase. Highly recommend.

Kuat Beta is ideal 2" hitch, 2 bike rack. It is well made, relatively light, very sturdy, and installs in a minute. We recently drove for 2000 miles with our bikes on it. Very stable, no vibration. Minimal vibration only on very rough roads, as you would expect.

Is the Kuat NV 2.0 Base Bike Rack for 2 Bikes Compatible with the 2019 Toyota Tacoma?

This is designed for two inch by two inch trailer hitch receivers and it can carry up to two bikes weighing 60 pounds each. This is a great way to transport your bikes to your favorite destination while freeing up the space here in your bed. One thing that I always think when I see a pickup with a bike rack is why don't you just toss them in the bed, but if you're carrying maybe a cooler or some other cargo or perhaps you have a nice bike that you don't want to make frame contact with, this is a great solution for that.As you can see, it has a ratcheting arm and a ratcheting strap, so there's no frame contact at all, to get your bikes, maybe with a sensitive frame or a nice paint job to your destination safely. Few specs on this bike rack, the trace here can accommodate up to 4.8 inch wide tires and a max wheel base of 48 inches, the wheel base is from the center of one axle to the center of the other. As far as wheel diameter goes, 25 inch to 29 inches, but we do have an adapter here at etrailer.com that can accommodate 20 to 24 inch wheel diameters if you have a smaller wheel.One of the highlights of this bike rack I really like, is the integrated cable lock.

So with this Tacoma, all week what we've been doing is putting a bunch of bike rack stuff on this Tacoma.

Adam: Hi, everyone. Adam with etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule hitching post pro on our 2019 Toyota Tacoma. What we're going to do in this video is just give you guys some features of the product to show you how it interacts with our Tacoma here, and also I'm just going to give you my two cents on the product as well. But initially, this is going to be a hanging style bike rack and it's going to be able to hold up to four bikes to get it to and from your destination.It is pretty easy to get this bike off the rack. There is three different tie on points per bike.
Will the Thule Camber Bike Rack for 4 Bikes Fit Your 2019 Toyota Tacoma?
Adam: Hi, everyone. Adam, with etrailer.com.Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Tuli Canberra on our 2019 Toyota Tacoma. What we're going to do in this video is go over some features of the product and just show you how it interacts with our Tacoma here.Let's go ahead and get started. As you can tell, it is a hanging style bike rack, and it's going to be able to fit four different bikes with three tie-down points per bike. But what's going to set this one apart from most is just the amount of gap that we have in between our cradles.We're going to have about seven inches in between these. With that and the anti-sway cradle to help that bike to bike contact, I think that your bikes will probably be pretty safe on this hanging style rack.
