The popular wheel mounted bike rack is now available for your RV bumper! Simply secure the steel U-Bolts provided with the rack to your bumper. The upright bar in the center of the rack gives added support to your bikes while towing.by: Gary Williamson, Yuma, Arizona06/30/2023
The bicycle rack mounted easily by myself without help from another person. It is very strong and holds our two bicycles just as I had hoped. I slipped a pool noodle over the upright support bar to prevent scratching the inside bicycle. The only thing I can suggest is that the product would have been better if it included the cover for the upright support pole and some strapping material to keep the bicycles solidly in place while traveling. The strapping material is not a big priority for me though because I have lots of it.

This was a great compromise in cost, ease of install and use.
Easily attached to the bumper (and saved cost as I didn't need to install a hitch on the RV).
Bikes went in well, but needed to use pool noodles to insulate the bikes from each other and from the central pole. (Will switch to more sturdy pipe insulation next time). Add some bungies and velcro straps (to hold the wheels) and you're all set.
Held our 2 mountain bikes flawlessly over our 8,000 mile road trip last summer.

Cannot slide the two sections far enough apart so that both bike wheels will fit into their respective slot. When mounted the ends of the rack stick past the bumper on the vehicle side too far. This means that the ends are sticking into the cut out for the RV back wall above the tow hitch which limits moving the sections further apart. Also an improvement could be made by having a hinge that would allow for lifting the rack in an upright storage position.

It's been just over a year tha I purchased my Swagman two-bike rack for my 5th wheel. The customer service I received form "etrailer" was exemplary. I had questions about the size and my CSR actually called the manufacturer got the answer and called me back! The rack was an easy mount requiring one wrench, two hands and about ten minutes. It's sturdy, looks great and functions flaulessly! Although it isn't a suggested procedure, at 265 pounds I stand on mine to wash my back window. Of course I stand close to the bumper and not on the outter edge, but my point is, it's a very sturdy unit and is at a great price point. If you need a rack look no further than, etrailer and Swagman!

Ive sold my 5th wheel and the bike rack but the new owner loved the rack. My experience with the rack is I cant imagine a rack being easier to install, more sturdy for the price point or in general a great piece of equipment.
by: Mark S.08/19/2017
Bike rack was exactly how it appears. Quality material of construction for what it is. Total time to assemble, about 20 minutes. Had a question about shipping time, got a quick response from George at etrailer. Bike rack actually came in earlier than scheduled date.
by: Stuart 04/06/2023
Nice rack for the money, easy install, looks good on the rear bumper of the motor home. One item of caution....be sure that when performing a sharp turn in the motor home, that the bike rack does not hit the tow vehicle if in fact a vehicle is in tow. I checked this for clearance before I went on the road
by: Bill 12/13/2019
So far so good, using it to mount a generator to the rear bumper of our 5th wheel. Have not had her on the road yet, so I'm not sure how it will hold up. It feels very secure so I'm feeling good that it will hold up.

I ask for information on the bike racks that would fit my rv and they answered all my questions. My order arrived sooner than I thought and I installed it last nite and it will work fine. I am planning on sending pictures.
Thanks to all

The rack is great, just what I wanted. I recommend this to all the campers I meet with bikes.

It is a beautiful piece of equipment ever made to transport bikes on the rear of a rv
by: Anna07/13/2022
I can’t really offer much on this as we haven’t used it. We were told the camper bumper isn’t strong enough to hold the weight. It will require some additional welding to the frame. Wish we had waited to purchase this unfortunately.

This rack is built for continuous welded steel square bumpers at least 4 inches and no more than 4.5 inches wide. This is not built for use on aluminum or spot weld bumpers. We do recommend checking with your trailer manufacturer to make sure that the factory bumper can support the weight of a loaded rack. This rack has a weight capacity of 70 lbs and the rack itself is roughly 20 lbs. If you are looking for something that does not require additional welding, then you might want to look into getting a universal hitch, like part # C13701, along with an RV rated bike rack, like part # S44FR.

Great price for a simple but effective bike rack. Have used it on the back of a 5th wheel RV, and overall it works well. Installation was very easy, be sure to adjust the position of the two pieces to fit your bicycle footprint. I just used some creative bungee cording to hold the bikes in place at the wheels and to the vertical pipe. The bikes are held firmly in place with very little movement.
My only real issue is with the vertical support, and its lack of adjustability. In my case, the bikes would lean towards the RV, with the handlebar hitting the glass window because it was so close. I attached a 2x4 spacer to the vertical support to position the inside bike straight up, and that took care of the issue, but it would be nice if there was some way of adjusting the bar.
Also, kudos to etrailer, for their great support. Delivery came early, and product was in great shape. I've used Etrailer before, and will continue to.

I bought not as a bike rack, but as a platform to bolt a couple large storage contains on the back of my camper. My regular hitch style bike rack fits right between...worked great. I've been using it for one year now...no problems.
by: Ken H.04/05/2012
Everything went great from the git go, the rack was at my front door the day I was told that it would arrive. The installation was a snap; it took about 15 minutes to complete, the only tool you need is a 9/16" wrench. The loading of the bikes are quick and easy, much better than hauling them in the bed of the pick up, which took a lot of time trying to strap them so they would not get damaged during the trip. Today was my first trip with the bike rack, I hauled 2 mountain bikes for 75 miles with no problem or damage to the bikes. Great product!
by: Ted N.05/22/2012
Bike Rack arrived in minimum time and was exactly as described. Have not installed yet, since I need to relocate the spare tire on my camper. I will use it in the same area as the spare tire.

I have now used the bike rack for two years. Many people have asked about it. I had my dealer move my spare tire underneath my fifth wheel behind the front battery storage area. He added a cable hook up to lower and raise the spare tire. Very similar to how spare tires are mounted in trucks. He did it for less than $100 .

I recently purchased the RV Bumper 2 bikeRack from etrailer.com. I received my purchase in a timely fashion and found the item to be well made and easy to install on the back of my View Finder travel trailer. I used it for the first time this past week to transport my wife's and my own mountain bike on our scheduled getaway to Astoria. It functioned flawlessly. The bikes were easy to load and unload and were secure during transport. I strongly recommend this product.

Fits and holds bikes very well, 4 inch bumper - they need to add more support for the upright bikes, they hit rear of trailer.

I agree, they should include two uprights. I ordered a 2nd one from Skagman, around 30 bucks with shipping.

Great product! Holds the bike well. I never concern myself with the safety of the bikes while using this rack.

We put a bike and ramps on there to go from ct to fl worked great! Sturdy. Thanks
by: Vickie A.06/16/2016
Ordered the bike rack on a Tuesday afternoon, UPS delivered the rack the following Thursday morning. The quality of the frame work is very sturdy. Excellent product. We installed the bike rack with no problem. I had looked for several months for an rv bumper bike rack and could not find one that we thought we would like or would work very well. My husband ran across this web site as he looked for a rack. We are very pleased......and gald we ordered from etrailer.com. We will do business again with them if ever needed. Could not take pictures, as I do not have a cell phone that can do that. Still old school......
by: Randy T.08/29/2015
I am very well pleased with my purchase of the 2 bike rack, It was easy to install. Just what I was looking for. The rack allowed me to free up that space in the back of the truck. Ordering was easy, and delivery was quick. Thank you.
by: Richard09/02/2021
A total piece of junk! Does not secure even one bike to the rack. If you used this product your bikes would not be there when you stopped. I wasted my money.
by: Josh R.08/17/2016
Seems like a great product. Easy to install with just a few basic hand tools. I had my 6 yr old daughter help me hold them in place while putting the U-bolt through but could be done with just one person. These are a little tricky if you have the rear bumper mounted tire carrier.
by: Chuck B.09/24/2016
This bike rack has great flexibility for any size bike. It could use some eye bolts for tie-downs, but it assembled easily.
by: Terrell07/23/2018
Very happy with this product. It was lightweight, yet strong enough to carry both bikes. Super easy to install! Would recommend it for anyone with a square tube style rear R/V bumper.
by: Mike M.06/19/2015
Very easy to install. However, I believe an additional stabilizer bar should be added with an additional bar between the 2 stabilizer bars to make it easier to secure the bikes.

See what our Experts say about this Swagman RV and Camper Bike Racks
- Distance from Bumper to First Bike When Swagman RV Bumper Bike Rack S80605 is InstalledThe first dimension you mentioned of 6-1/4 inches will be the distance from the rear bumper where the Swagman RV bike rack part # S80605 attaches to the center of the first bike slot. You'll want right at 2 inches of clearance between the bumper and the rear wall of the trailer to allow the U-bolt and rack to clear.
view full answer... - Front Hitch for 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500A front htich is a great way to add carrying capacity for a bike rack without interfering with turning clearance if you also happen to be towing a trailer. Currently the only front hitch we have for the 2016 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 is the EcoHitch model # 306-X7352. The hitch's price reflects the fact that it is USA-made and also made from an alloy that is produced only from US-sourced recycled materials. If you do not have a rear hitch we do offer these for your Sprinter 3500 as...
view full answer... - RV Rated Spare Tire Bike Rack Recommendation for an Aliner Camper TrailerThere are no spare tire bike racks rated for an RV or camper spare tire. However, if your Aliner's bumper is rated for towing and/or carrying weight, we offer several bike rack options that are rated for use behind a camper. Take a look at the Swagman Around the Spare Mighty Rack, # S80501. This rack is designed to fit a 4 to 4-1/2 inch continuous welded square bumper and fit around the spare tire. I have included a link to the installation details and a video review for reference. Another...
view full answer... - Tandem Bike Rack Recommendation for Fitting on 4 inch Square Bumper of Camper TrailerWhat you would need is the RV Bumper Bike Rack part # S80605 to attach to your 4 inch bumper. Since the two sections of the rack can be spaced wherever needed on the bumper you would just need to space the rack so that the wheels of your tandem bike line up.
view full answer... - Tandem Bike Rack Recommendation for Rear of MotorhomeIf your motorhome has a 4 inch continuously welded rear bumper the only solution we have for a tandem bike rack would be the Swagman bike rack part # S80605 as you could space out the trays of the rack so that it would fit each wheel well.
view full answer... - Will The Swagman Platform-Style 2 Bike Rack For RV Bumper Fit Adventurer Folding Bikes?The Swagman RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack,# S80605, is a very versatile bike rack. It is built for continuous welded steel square bumpers at least 4 inches and no more than 4-1/2 inches wide. This bike rack has independent wheel carriers so they can be moved to fit your specific needs. The only thing that is important to note is the two bikes need to be similar length, which seems like it won't be an issue in your situation. It can carry bikes up to 35 lbs each. There is an upright support...
view full answer... - Weight Capacity of Swagman RV Bumper Mount Bike Rack # S80605The Swagman RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack you referenced, part # S80605 will carry 2 bikes weighing no more than 35 lbs apiece. This rack is a good choice for folks with lighter bikes who for one reason or another cannot install a receiver on the back of their RV. Your best bet would be to use a receiver mounted rack, like the Swagman Dispatch, part # S44FR. The rack has a 90 lb capacity, which should accommodate your bikes nicely. The rack could be mounted to a receiver like part # UF35-946402...
view full answer... - Can a Bumper Mounted Trailer Hitch Be Installed on a 2015 Coleman Travel Trailer to Carry BikesThe bumper should be hollow. If it wasn't and was made of steel it would be very, very heavy! If the bumper has just one long weld its entire length then it would be a continuous weld. As far as the bumper capacity it can more than likely support the spare and a couple of bikes. But, to know for sure, I strongly advise contacting the manufacturer to ask so you got all your bases covered. If everything checks out you could use Curt hitch # E-100. But instead of doing that I actually recommend...
view full answer... - Is Swagman Bumper Mount Bike Rack Safe to UseAs long as the bumper is 4 to 4-1/2 inches, made of steel, is square, and has a continuous weld the length of the bumper then there is nothing to worry about, especially since you got the go ahead from the dealer. To relieve some stress on the bumper you can attach a strap somewhere on the bike rack and tie it off to the back of the trailer. This will help take stress off the bumper and add a little peace of mind. You could use straps like # 05605 or stabilization strap # 18050.
view full answer... - Will this RV Bumber 2 Bike Rack, part # S80605, Obstruct the Visibility of my RV Tail LightsIf you used the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack, part # S80605, there is a chance that your tail lights would shine through the spokes of the wheel allowing them to be visible, and therefore safe and legal. What I would recommend you do, is hitch up your trailer to your towing vehicle and have a friend hold a bike with the bottom of the wheels as high as the top of your bumper to simulate where the bike would be if you had this rack mounted with bikes on it. Next, have another friend activate your...

The around the spare bike rack # S80501 does not come our far enough at 12 inches to clear the spare so it would not work for you. Be sure that your bumper is rated for the weight of...
view full answer... - Motor Home Bike Rack Recommendations for Two Manhattan Beach Cruiser BikesThe first issue that you will run into when trying to carry your Manhattan beach cruisers on a motor home or trailer bike rack is the weight capacity. All of our motorhome and trailer bike racks will only accommodate bikes that weigh no more than 35 lbs each. I did some research on your bikes and it looks like most cruiser style bikes weigh between 40 and 60 lbs. If your bikes weigh 35 lbs or less, then we may have a solution for you. The Surco 2 Bike Carrier, # SP501BR, can support two...
view full answer... - Bike Rack to Carry Tandem Bike at Rear of RVThe only solution we have for carrying a tandem bike at the rear of an RV would be the RV bumper bike rack part # S80605. Only issue you'd have would be that to space the rack to allow a tandem bike to fit would be too far for a standard bike to be carried as well. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - Will a Bike with 2-3/8 inch Wide Tires Fit the Swagman Bike Rack S80605Yes, your bike tires that are 2-3/8 inches wide would fit well on the Swagman Bike Rack part # S80605. The slots on this rack are 2-3/4 inches wide so yours would fit easily.
view full answer... - Swagman RV Bumper Bike Rack Replacement PartsThe RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack # S80605 does not have a replacement upright bar available or any replacement parts for that matter. You may instead consider the Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack # S80600 that comes with a second bar. You may also want to consider a cable lock like # e98891 to secure your rack and bikes to your RV.
view full answer... - Adding a Bumper Mount Hitch or Bike Carrier to a 1984 Itasca RVYou might be able to get Curt RV bumper hitch # E-100 around a 4-1/4 inch square tube but you would likely have to flex the hitch some and I do not recommend it because it would put extra stress on the welds. The best and safest solution is to look at frame mount hitches. I have included a link to them for you. They may cost more but they will be much safer to use. Another option, if you are looking to carry bikes using the bumper, is to use a bumper mount rack such as # S80605 for 2...
view full answer... - Recommendations for Carrying Bikes While Towing Trailer With Short A-Frame TongueThe Malone # MPG544 you'd referenced has a 400 lb tongue weight capacity, which wouldn't be enough capacity for the trailer's tongue weight and the weight of the bikes and the rack they're carried on. Couple that with the fact that using a dual hitch adapter like # MPG544 will reduce the tongue weight capacity of your Expedition's hitch by 50 percent, carrying the bikes between the trailer and the vehicle very likely wouldn't work. This leaves a couple of options for carrying your bikes....
view full answer... - Recommendation for RV Bike Rack for Tandem BikeFor the tandem bike, I suggest the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack, # S80605 by Swagman. This bike rack uses U-bolts to attach to the bumper of your RV. Bumper needs to be at least 4" and no more than 4-1/2" wide and will carry up to 2 bikes (30 lbs per bike). But suspect that would then be too far apart for the mountain bike. I don't have a solution that will handle both bikes in one bike rack.
view full answer... - Could Swagman RV Bike Rack # S80605 Fit Tandem BikeYou could adjust the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack # S80605 to fit the wider wheelbase of a tandem bike rack pretty easily, but clearance will be harder to determine. This sticks out 19 inches from the rear bumper which you'd have to measure to determine what type of clearance you have. It sits on top of the bumper too which may give more clearance below it for the dolly, but that depends on it's dimensions as well. This rack is only rated for 30 lbs though so you'll need to verify the weight of...
view full answer... - Does the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack # S80605 Have to Install on a Continuously Welded BumperI wish I could go ahead and say the # S80605 would work well on your trailer bumper, but since your bumper doesn't have a totally continuously welded rear bumper I can't safely recommend this rack for you. The only option that I could safely recommend would be to take the camper to a welder and have him run continuous welds.
view full answer... - Is 24x40 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper Long Enough to Carry 2 Adult BikesAdult bicycles can vary in size, but generally speaking, the 40 inch inside width of the 24x40 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99050 won't be wide enough to carry a pair of bikes, so you'd need the 24" Extension for etrailer Bumper Mounted RV Cargo Carrier # e99052. That said, with the open floor design of Cargo Carrier # e99050 it will be difficult to get bikes to properly mount in the carrier, so if your only goal is to use this to carry bikes, a better option would be a bumper-mounted...
view full answer... - Swagman Bumper Rack And Fat Tire CompatibilityI contacted Swagman today and they said you could use the RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack, part # S80605 provided that your fat-tire bike is less than 30lbs and your tire fits in between the two traditional wheel holders. That distance is 4.25".

You can push the bikes as far as they can go when on the rack to help compensate for the off-center spare but that is only going to be a few inches. I recommend going with RV bumper rack # S80605 because the 2 halves of this rack are not connected so you would be able to position the rack so that the bikes are more centered. I have linked a video review of this rack for you.

Instead the Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack part # S80600 or the 2 bike version part # S80605 would be the way to go. This would allow you to transport them on an approved rack.

It is possible that this might not be the bike rack for you. How wide are your tires? Would you be able to send a picture of your bikes on the rack?
