Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
This bike rack has been perfect for our full-time RV travels. It carries both of our e-bikes at the back of our travel trailer. We can easily remove it, if needed, and place it in the truck’s trailer hitch if we want to drive somewhere far away to begin our bike ride. The one thing that could be improved is the tightening knobs and stops for keeping the bike wheels the proper distance from each other. For peace of mind check them regularly. I placed metal hose clamps at the ends of both bars to ensure staying power (otherwise vibration could possibly shimmy the wheel holder off of the end of the bar - it happened to us!). Still a great product. 784033

Provides a steady, sturdy ride for both of our Pedego Ebikes on the back of a 2017 Highlander. 739206
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
Went together smoothly. Have not used yet but our juiced scramblers fit perfectly. Only reason 4 stars is having to pay an extra $100 for the fat tire chocks and no use for the included small chocks. 696209
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
The swagman ebike carrier is as described. It’s a heavy duty carrier that will carry 2 ebikes behind my fifth wheel. I’ve only assembled it and installed my ebikes to make sure everything works for my 2 Surface604 bikes. I especially like the heavy construction and locking pin and slides. The locking pin screws into the receiver so there is no movement. They also supply heavy duty fasteners and a bolt to replace the pin to make it even more rigid. The bolt does eliminate the ability to fold the platform, but I prefer the rigidity that it provides. It’s early, but I like it so far. 641689

Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
etrailer customer service and representative were excellent. Very informative and helpful during the ordering of this unit via phone. Bike rack arrived on time as indicated and was packaged very well with no damage or missing parts. Installation instructions were thorough and the installation process went smooth with no issues. However, would recommend making one modification to the installation instructions. In step 4 - installation of the ratcheting upright arm, I would suggest installing it opposite of what the instructions say. The instructions indicated to install the upright arm so that it folds to the left when looking at the back of the vehicle. The problem with this installation alignment is that the locks on the hooks are positioned facing toward the vehicle making it difficult to lock & unlock the hooks. Also attaching the upright arm in accordance with the instructions requires the longer hook to be slide on the arm 1st and the short one second. This alignment makes it difficult for loading and unloading bikes. By installing the ratcheting upright arm so that it folds to the left resolves these issues providing the advantages of: 1. Hook lock face away from the vehicle making it easier to lock and unlock the hooks. 2. The long hook which goes on the arm 1st is not closest to the vehicle allowing the bike closes to the vehicle to be loaded 1st and the bike on the outside loaded 2nd. Unloading is also easier allowing the bike on the out side to be unloaded 1st and then the bike closest to the vehicle unloaded 2nd. Bike rack seems very sturdy and rugged but have not had the opportunity yet to use it. Will report back with pictures once it is used. Plan to use the bike rack on the back of a SUV, Truck, and Fifth Wheel to carry an E-Bike and regular bike. 616948
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
Love our new ebike carrier! Works perfect placed on our 5th wheel hitch. It's secure, solid and handles a 58lb and 48lb ebike beautifully. We're grateful the bikes don't bounce around when we're on the road like many we've seen, and fold up when at camp/RV sites. Yay Swagman, great design! 721753

Great bike rack heavy duty and very easy to install. 656437
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
This is a great bike rack for heavy E-bikes! I had one problem that should be addressed. The adjustable wheel mounts attach to the square tubes with only a plastic friction clamp. Our bikes, and a lot of bikes nowadays, have a sloping top tube. When the bikes are clamped in the rack the center clamp puts a force on the mounts that can, and did, slide the mount off the square tube! I drilled and installed a 10/22 bolt in each mount clamp to prevent this from happening again. See pictures... The white plastic half-pipes are guides to roll the ebikes up from the side. 786475

Fits the bike well and easy to install. Like the Keyed alike receiver lock and lock for the bike arms. 591162
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
Nice firm rack. I have another different brand that is very wobbly. The pin, with lock, was too long for my truck. The trailer plug was too close to the receiver. The second shorter pin worked but didn’t fit the lock. A very easy machining on a lathe fixed that. This is the best rack I’ve ever owned and I’ve had a few. 652563
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
The rack was very easy to assemble. Installing the bike was a breeze. I live on the north end of the Long Beach Peninsula in Washington State. Today, I am taking my Pedego Interceptor down to the Discovery Trail starting in Cape Disappointment Park. The trail is about a 19 mile round trip from the Lighthouse, thru the dunes up to the point where Lewis and Clark first saw the Pacific Ocean. Pics from my last ride on the trail are also attached. Riding around my neighborhood is OK, but now I have access to several National and State Parks along the coast of Washington and Oregon. Opening up a whole new world to me as my official retirement will begin on June 30. Love my new Swagman E-Spec bike rack. Tony 510229
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
Received the bike rack today 06/28/19. Found it easy to assemble, but putting it on the receiver I found the receiver lock bolt was an odd size 7/8th to small and 15/16th to big. If your supply and of size bolt,please supply a wrench that works! 664272
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
Love my new bike carrier! Quality materials and easy assembly. It's awkward trying to secure a step-through frame. I prefer nyloc nuts over lock washers but that's an easy fix. Now I'm looking for a cover to protect the bikes from the weather. 511739
GARY S - 05/21/2019Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
I am very satisfied with this bike rack.Our first trip was over 500 miles and it performed flawlessly. The reason for 4 and not five stars is that I tried to reverse the hooks 180' but the rumber protection was hitting the rachet. I will figure something out. I have a Rad Mini and a converted mountain bike and it handled the weight with no problem. p.s. Always remove your batteries for transporting. 562071

Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
This is very well built and the instructions were fairly straight forward. I haven't used it yet because we have step through bikes and I didn't know when buying that I would need two bar adapters to go between the neck and the seat to take the place of the upper tube. I have ordered them now but they may not come till May 25. It would have been nice to know. More people are getting the step through versions of E bikes. 796138
Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
The box was in bad shape when it arrived. So, I was a little worried that the product was banged up. Fortunately, it was not. It works just fine. The bolt that attaches the unit to the trailer hitch eliminates any slack and wobble...a great feature. Carries 2 "heavy" e-bikes with no problem. 791785

Review from a similar E-Spec in Hitch Bike Racks
We used the chat room to determine what product we needed, and they gave us exactually what we needed. This bike rack is tow trailer rated, and is very sturdy and fit our e-bikes perfectly. We received it two days from ordering. Assembly was extremely easy. Assembled it right in the truck receiver which made it super simple. 714227
