Recumbent bike riders used to struggle when searching for a hitch-mounted rack that suits their needs. All it took was a little ingenuity to create the XC-Extended rack - the perfect solution for carrying recumbent bikes. This platform-style, hitch-mounted two-bike carrier transports bikes with extra-long wheelbases - like recumbents - with all the convenience of a standard platform rack.
This rack comes with black XC wheel hoops, which provide a stable base for mounting your bicycles. The XC hoops adjust with a hand knob and slide along the arms of your rack to accommodate bikes with wheelbases up to 52" and tires up to 3-1/2" wide. The bonus with this bike carrier is that silver XTC wheel hoops are also included to give you that extra length required for carrying a recumbent. Simply swap out the XC wheel hoops with the XTCs and you will add 14" to the maximum wheelbase capacity, for a total of 66". The XTC hoops hold tires up to 2-1/2" wide and include rubber straps to secure your wheels to the rack.
When the XC cradles are installed traditionally, they measure 65" outside to outside and 37" inside to inside.
The XTC wheel hoops - when installed traditionally - measure 81" outside to outside and 51-1/2" inside to inside.
To stretch the wheelbase capacity a few more inches, mount two XTC wheel hoops at the end of each arm on the same side of the bike carrier. Doing this increases the maximum wheel base capacity to 68".
Regardless of which wheel hoops you use on the rack, the upright arm offers the same great features. This arm includes a pair of ratcheting hooks that hold your bikes securely in place to prevent bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact during transport. The hooks feature soft padding to protect your bike's frame, are offset so that you can carry two bikes of the same size simultaneously, and can be locked with a 1/4" padlock. Fold down the entire upright arm by pulling a pin at the base; this enables you to reach all the gear in your vehicle's rear cargo area obstacle free.
You can release the side arms of the rack by pulling pins at the base, then fold them up for convenient storage.
The bike rack includes a threaded hitch pin and a clip that work with a built-in anti-wobble device in the shank to eliminate rattle in the hitch receiver during transport. You can replace the pin and clip with Swagman's anti-rattle lock (S64029; sold separately) to lock the bike carrier to your vehicle.

Product was delivered as ordered. It was about 1 1/2 weeks later than the original estimated delivery date. Little information was available during the delay, so I had to call twice to get an update on the delivery. Friendly operators, but doesn't change the actual versus expectation gap. 789813

Best bang for the buck you're going to find anywhere (5*). Fits my long wheelbase recumbent with additional kit (4*). Folds out of the way, very accommodating, I can fit my [email protected] on it with 4" tires (5*). Use the 3/4 hexed bolt for a sturdier connection (4*). If you're anal about your bikes finish, put a sock or sheepskin over the eva padded hook. It will scratch if you do not (3*). 676759

Rack arrived a day earlier than promised. Very easy to assemble. I did not need the extensions, but glad I have them for the future. The sleeve that fits the 2" receiver is a little loose so whole rack is wobbly, but should be able to correct with some sort of shim. I mounted on front of truck (because I pull a travel trailer) so clearance between inside bike pedal and truck grill really close. I wrapped pedal in towel to (hopefully) to prevent damage to truck grill. Very easy to load bikes on and off. Ratcheting clamp hold the bikes down well. There is a hole for a lock on the ratcheting clamp. So far, very happy with my purchase. 707955

This bike rack comes with a threaded hitch pin to help keep the rack from wobbling inside the hitch receiver, but if youre still seeing too much play, the Quiet Hitch # RM-061
Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches
$27.55 anti-rattle device is another great option to remove slack between the shank and receiver. You could also try securing the top of the bike rack to your tow loops with a ratchet strap like part # 317-402400

I love this trailer. Only one problem is that the 2" adapter is a bit loose in the hitch. Planning to add a shim to correct that. I have a recumbent and the adjustment wheel brackets work perfect. I highly recommend it to other "bent" riders. 94172

I have two long wheel base recumbents. Would they both fit on the Swagman S64650 EXT? Wheel base is about 70 Thanks, Dale
-- comment by: Dale - 08/21/20131930
The maximum wheel base is 66 inches, so your recumbents may be a bit long. Hollywood Racks, part HR1000R, will accommodate up to a 74 inch wheel base and it is a similar design as the Swagman.

Bought this rack to transport a SWB and A LWB recumbent. Ordered it after reading some reports on it. We were in the middle of a move from Georgia to Wisconsin and had to leave one of our vehicles in Atlanta. I found a SWB in Tennessee and needed to transport it to Wisconsin with our vehicle when I flew back to Atlanta to drive the our vehicle home. I had the carrier sent to my friends home in Atlanta. When I arrived from the airport I was able to install the primary support into the 2" receiver and bolt in place. The bolt tightened down the support so there was no play in the connection. I then took off for Wisconsin with a stop in Tennessee to test drive/purchase the bike and take it home. I had a lot riding on the performance this bike rack. If it didn't work I would forego the purchase of the bike I had found. Got to Tennessee and purchased the bike. Took the components out of the book and assembled them onto the primary support member. Adjustment of the tire holders to fit the wheel base was easy and fast, actually did it in the dark with a flash light. Really liked the removable pins with the ball detents in them. That made the entire process very simple and quick.We had the bike on the rack in less than 10 minutes. I transported the bike more than 900 miles with it on the rack. It performed perfectly at speeds above the posted limits. I have attached a photo showing it in our driveway at home. The only concern I have with the rack is the attachment of the rack to the primary support. This is not a tight compression fit and it wobbles a little. This causes the bike to behave a bit like a rocking horse when it is on the rack. This connection condition, while not critical needs to be a little tighter to make it a rock solid mount. I highly recommend this rack, it performs as promised and is a great value. 124762

I have a Cruzbike Silvio and due to their shape, it is difficult to find a carrier. I read about the Swagman XC - Extended platform and ordered it. I am not a handy person or mechanical, yet putting together this carrier was a breeze. The only negative thing was the photos found in the instructions were small and difficult to see so I took a photo with my phone and expanded the photo and that handled that issue. It took me a very short amount of time to put this together and attach it to my truck. Attaching the carrier to my truck is easy and it holds my Cruzbike very well. I typically take my bike to our local bike path. While out riding, I detach the carrier, fold it up, and place it in my truck for safety. I highly recommend this carrier, especially if you have a recumbent bicycle. 933053

Swagman bike rack arrived yesterday. After removing all contents from the packages and laying them all on my garage floor I placed the universal foot into my Forester hitch receiver and proceeded to assemble the rack there, in-situ. So easy to put together and it took a little more than an hour. It is very well made, solid, does not wobble and looks great. I can't wait to get on the road with our bikes soon. I am confident that this rack will serve us well for many years to come. 866418

I purchased this hitch to haul bikes around. I purchased a similar hitch, from another company, a year ago at a much higher price. The etrailer is easily it's equal and less expensive. It is easy to assemble, though the written instructions need improvement. E.g., there are washers included for the bolts and other connections, but the instructions fail to tell you where to place them. 808089

After a lot of researching I came to find this Swagman. It was about $100 less than the competitor and I called customer service and they were awesome. They explained what I need to measure on my brakes because I have a recumbent and a regular bike. It came with great instructions and it was easy to put together. It is well-built and easy to use. I always had a bike rack that hung and this is much better. I highly recommend it and once again the customer service was great. 720619

This bike rack is going to be the best option for carrying a 2-wheeled recumbent bike. I have included a link to a video review for you.

If your two wheeled recumbent falls within those parameters, it will fit on the rack. We do not have any 4 bike racks that can accommodate a recumbent bike. If you would care to respond with the year, make and model of your vehicle, I can suggest alternatives that would allow you to carry all 4 bikes using the hitch and some roof mounted racks.
