Most Popular Rack Lock for Ram 1500

I bought this bike rack because I didn't want to have to remove my bed cover every time I wanted to take our bikes on a trip. This rack works perfect because I can roll up my cover and this thing just clamps across the bed. Taking the front tire on and off is kind of time consuming but when I travel with my brother who has a hitch mount rack, it takes him just as long to unload his bike as it takes me to unload. The wheel mounts tighten easily and the bikes appear secure during long drives, so I don't worry about them coming loose. Of course, you'll want to wrap a bike chain around the bike and rack if you plan to leave them out to make sure no one can steal the bike (although it would be missing a wheel)

It worked well, but not without doing some "tweaking". When set down on the bed rails the locking pin would not line up with the hole in the bar so it took some filing on the hole to get it to work. Also the axle mounts would not set flat on the mounting pads so that also took some work with a file to get them to mount flat. Once I got all of that done it works fine.

The quality of the rack is fantastic. Sadly the keys do not work on the Locking Quick Release Skewers. I've contacted Swagman about this and am waiting for a response.

Quite pleased with nearly everything regarding this rack. Setup was super easy right out of the box, loved that I didn't need any tools. Bikes feel very secure and I haven't noticed any shifting or movement while driving around. My only complaint is that it's possible for someone to remove (or steal) the locking skewers when there's no bike attached just by unscrewing the endcap. Even if the handle is locked in place, just unscrew the endcap and you can remove the whole locking mechanism. So...works fantastic when there's a bike to be hauled, but makes me uncomfortable when I just park the truck and walk away. Works great, could just be a bit more secure.

Great quality bike rack when paired with the Rhino-rack cross beams. When I use the bike rack and cross beams they are attached to my 2016 Subaru STi and I have drove it fairly aggressively with the bikes on the roof. Everything has stayed attached just fine. The only thing I will point out is that you should check the attachment hardware every few uses because it will occasionally vibrate loose, nothing serious but if you never pay attention to this your bikes may fly off your roof! Ez fix though. I rate the rack 10/10 in my experience.

Couldn’t be more satisfied with my decision to go with this bike rack, was on the fence between brands but Rhino Rack makes it beyond easy to use, from installing it on the racks, to daily use is just unbelievably simple! 100% would recommend to anyone looking into bike racks. Also huge selling point for sure is that it covers a very wide range of tire sizes where others are very specific!

Best roof rack I've purchased. I've had it for over a year. It's way better than Thule - more secure and way easier to take on and off - and less expensive. I use it for my road bike and fat back with equal ease. The unique way it attaches to your car rack makes it likely to fit almost any rack. For me, I've used it for a 2016 Sequoia and a 2017 Macan S. BTW, this is one of the few racks I've found that nicely carry a fat back. My tires are 4.5" wide, 26.5 tall...also used it for my 29er on occasion, but fat bikes are way more fun than 29ers. If I were to complain, it is the arm gets a bit stiff sometimes and need to oil it, where my Thule is less inclined to need it...but this complaint does not diminish it from being an excellent/5 start product.

Was very happy with the bike mount. It went together very easy, fit my rails and my bike great. Only complaint is that there was no padding on the rear rail clamp. I didn’t want to rub the paint off my rails so I added a thin piece of rubber and it works perfectly.
