Swagman Around the Spare Deluxe 2 Bike Rack for RV Bumpers
Was assembled in 30 minutes. Need to assemble my e bike now and see if it fits without having a "crossbar." Will let you know.
I am very satisfied with the bike rack. Instillation was simple. The package had been previously opened and was missing 2 nuts but I had them in the garage. The product stated it would not fit on a bike with less than 18” between the seat and handle bar post but I drilled 2 holes in the top cross bar and set them on an angle as allowed in the instructions and they fit my mountain bikes with a cradle of 14”. I added a web strap from the tire support post, over the tire and around the bike cross bars to eliminate any swaying which did not appear to be a problem even before the strap. My 2 mountain bikes weigh 35.5lbs each and appeared very secure for a 700 mile trip.

Swagman Traveler XC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches or RV Bumpers - Frame Mount
We bought this to replace a XC rack with a 1” frame. This one rides on the back of our camper trailer. It’s great. I love the XC because it’s so easy to mount and dismount our bikes.
Heavier than I thought it be. Very solid feel. Will be putting to use behind 5th wheel in about three weeks. Not sure about the locking cable. It locks the hinge post but not the rack itself. The 1/2" pin for upright can be remove and rack is gone. Looking for another lock for it.

Swagman RV 4-Bike RV Bumper Mount Rack
For the few times we take bikes with us, it has worked out well. I use pool noodles over the bike frames and rack bars to keep from scratching the paint off the bikes. I spaced them for adult bikes, so the kids bikes don't sit down tight. I've just used the 1" tie ratchet straps and rubber straps to hold everything down. It can be challenging to get 4 bikes secure, but I haven't lost one yet. There really aren't any good spots to hook into, so I may modify accordingly. I would probably by them again.
Easy to mount, and four bikes fit fine. I wanted a platform rack, and I need to carry four bikes, so there are not many choices. Construction seems sturdy. Even though I tightened it fully down, it still has little play, but nothing to worry if you load it with your bikes. Just did a longer trip with four bikes on a 30ft TT, they did not move a bit. I now have to figure out a more efficient way to tie the bikes down.
