Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
The Swagman XTC bike rack is quality. I had the rack assembled and placed on my 2017 Ford Escape in less than an hour. Assembly instructions are straight forward and easy to understand. Placing two bikes on the rack requires some adjustments. My Trek Silque road bike and Specialized Rockhopper fit well. Once the adjustments are made you won't have to make them again unless you're racking different bikes. Sturdiness is great. Front to back sway is nonexsistent while side to side sway is minimal. I've driven my bikes around quite a bit with no problems. Locking the rack to the hitch is an ongoing process. Right now Im using a small padlock where the hitch pin goes, but will probably go with the locking hitch that is available for the rack. Love this rack. One important issue. I was considering a hanging rack, but these racks don't always work well with women's frames since the frame needs to straight across to work best. This platform rack has worked best for me.
Just purchased the XTC for my new 2012 Ford Escape. Easy installation, minimal assembly. The assembly is a very sturdy platform for transporting bicycles. Excellent bike rack for the price! Had to go purchase an additional 1/2 inch lock washer which allows easier access to bolt head when mounting to the 1-1/4 hitch.

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Easy to install, secure. Very pleased ! Perfect of my Ford Escape. I can mount it and the bike unassisted. My brother recommended it because he has had his for several years and loves it ! He purchased his from etrailer.com also.
Exactly what we wanted. This is our second one. Very easy to put together and install. The only issues with it were the time it took to deliver (it went out of stock, not their fault) and then watching the clearance to the hatch on the second car (Ford Escape). It's tight and it has a power hatch. Must not open with a bike on the back. But the rack itself is just fine, easy to assemble and incredibly easy to use.

Swagman Chinook Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
delivered on time and in good shape. Thought several pieces were missing, but talked to manufacturer and was told how pieces were packed and I had over looked them.
Great tutorials and very easy to install. Thanks

Swagman Trailhead Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
The bike rack arrived in a timely manner and was easy to assemble and install. I am delighted with it!
Once again Kirstin was Awesome!!! She remembered who i was and was very friendly again. My wife and I have ordered multiple items from e-trailers, for our auto and motor coach, and the service is fabulous. The last order of the dual receiver and bike rack were placed on the road while driving and Kirstin was Spot on with her recommendation and product knowledge. Yes you may be able to find things cheaper out on the internet, but we highly recommend the service and knowledge of e-trailers. Will use e-trailers again and again as we travel.

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…
What our customers are saying:
"I ordered a trailer hitch and a bike rack carrier the order was shipped with in three days. To put the hitch on only took about 30 mins. only had to drill two 1/2 holes. fit like a glove."
