Looks great. Doesnt bounce while parked, hopefully works great ehile driving.
}Well made product. Easy to install. Works great!
Very well made,but,where tires go could be a little wider. Does not fit my mountian bikes very well!
the product was found to be very well made and easy to install, we look forward to getting much use from it all summer long.
works great, easy installationtook all 4 bicycles on it for spring break and it worked great and it was simple and easy to install. the only drawback was i had to remove my spare tire and holder, but i thought i might have to do that when i bought it.
A winner, especially mnt.bikesWe ahd nowhere to mount the conventional bike racks as we also take our 4 kayaks on the roof top. Whit the different types of bikes the rack could accomodate both mountain bikes and conventional bieks.
solid construction, easy assembly, I had to make some adjustments to work around my spare tire.(moved the tire over 4 inches)The two bike model would not have worked. I am using the 4 bike carrier for two bikes and could carry a third in the outer slots if necessary.

Thanks for this comment. I am looking for a bike rack that will go alongside a spare tire mount I need to carry three or four bikes. Would you possibly have a picture of your set up that you could send?
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.
Because our Coachmen Clipper travel trailer has the bumper UNDER the trailer, I had to really improvise to get clearance for the bolts to tighten around the bumper. With persistence and God's help, it is a miracle that it is a solid fit for our two bikes and I like it a lot.
Very easy to assemble and install
I was looking for a rack to accommodate 2 adult bikes, my bike trailer and either my kids bikes or a storage bin.
My old rack was mounted to a 2" receiver mounted to bumper. My old bumper had to be repaired once since there was so much stress from the single mounting point of the bolt on hitch.
I used this rack for 1 year on my old camper and it worked great. It is very sturdy, and by distributing the weight on the bumper, there was/is no movement. I loaded it down with 2 adult bikes, my bike trailer, a porta-tote, a small bin of misc hookup stuff and a large bin with hatchets, hammers, kindling, etc (very heavy). It held up great.
It worked so well, and was in such good shape that I kept it and I have mounted it to my new 5th wheel. So far so good. The only thing I have done is replaced the 8 bolts that mount to the bumper with grade-8 since the old grade 5 lock nuts were not in that great a shape.
I highly recommend this rack.
This was to replace a 2"

Still love it, pack all my gear and bikes, and no movement. Recommend to anyone with a sturdy bumper
It is okay for larger bikes. However with smaller bikes (24” and under) when you tighten ratchet straps it has a propensity to snag the wheels/rims of the bicycles and bend them. I have bent two bicycle rims with this system. This is one product that I certainly wouldn’t recommend unless you are transporting 24” or larger bicycles.
I have upgraded to a frame bicycle holder that holds the bicycles by the frame.

After talking to the manufacturer, it seems like the issue is coming from the smaller bikes tire size not fitting the bike rack securely. To make them fit better, you could try put piping foam around the tires to bring the width up to that of a standard size tire, and therefore a more secure fit.
The install was easy enough, but it almost bent my bumper on a 2021 unit. The rack is heavy and with four bikes on the leveraged rack, it will bend the bumper of most trailers. I recommend a way of angling a piece of metal to the frame to take some of the weight. Great product if your bumper is solid.

This bike rack is meant to be used with continuous welded steel square bumpers at least 4 inches and no more then 4 and a half inches wide. It is not for use on aluminum or spot welded bumpers. The rack capacity was 120 pounds at 30 pounds per bike.

The rack was used with a continuous weld steel bumper and was still way to heavy for the bumper. It started to bend the bumper and sag because no matter how tight the bolts, the bumper was going to give. I would not recommend this product for any RV bumper unless you have a really heavy gage steel bumper on your RV. If the rack was made of aluminum, it may work better, but not sure. The design is such that so much weight from the bike rack is already leveraged out, adding bikes just stresses the bumper out and starts to bend most steel bumpers. I would recommend a hitch and multi bike rack that puts more weigh going down on the bumper evenly rather than exerting torsion on two points of a square tube bumper. I ahve tried to sell the Bumper Rack 4 RV Bike Rack For Up To 4 Bikes, but nobody will buy it. Most likely going to sell it a scrap yard or repurpose it in the yard somehow. It does make a great clothes drying rack at the beach however.
Excellent product - did have a little problem installing the bike rack, but with the training video was able to complete the install about 40minutes or less. The bike rack is pretty sold even sat on it, so if it can hold my weight (190) I don't see any problems holding my three bikes.

Thanks for your review and your business, Leroy! The capacity of this bike rack is limited to the capacity of the bumper on your RV or travel trailer. I recommend you check your manual to verify.
Delivered timely and when promised. Easy to install although it's a 2 person job. Held the bikes well. We used a few bungee cords and tie-downs.

Your product has been great. We use it often and have been very happy with it.
Very solid rack. We love how stout it is. It's mounted to the rear of a 28' fifth wheel. I cannot see it while I'm towing but I never worry about it. I replaced the factory rear bumper with heavy gauge thick walled 4" tube steel. I used the quality hardware that came with it. The only down side is tying down the bikes. We have 4 bikes if different sizes. Seems like I spend 15 minutes attaching enough bungee cords and tie downs to make the load road worthy. You can't just crank a ratchet strap because the tires sit in saddles and you can easily overcompress the tire tubs with the force of a ratchet strap. One year later and it's still rock solid.
Absolutely love this four bike rack! I was under the impression that there would never be a safe and effective way to carry all four of our family's bikes off the back end of our 30 ft. travel trailer but I was wrong! This works exactly as described. My husband and I installed it and with the tie downs we were on our way. We did find that on our maiden voyage with the rack the bikes "fell" into each other a bit and that caused the tie downs to loosen. We now make sure that we secure them as tight as possible next to each other and we have solved the problem. We also decided to remove it every year and store it in our garage when we winterized our trailer to keep it out of the elements. Very secure and it's excellent to have the bikes out of the trailer where we used to have to store them!! VERY glad we purchased it.
Ordering and timely delivery were excellent.
Assembly was easy. All parts fit, all were in the box, and all the weld joints were tight and strong.
This is a very beefy piece of hardware. Heavy gauge steel.
I recommend watching the video about assembly; it answered some questions before they came up.
One it's installed on our fifth wheel and gets some miles hauling bikes, hopefully I'll be ready to add the fifth star to my rating.
So far, so good.

The rack met our needs and expectations. It’s strong and stable and the only rear-bumper rack I would trust on a towed vehicle. The only compromise is having to put the spare tire in the front bin of our fifth wheel. I now give it five stars.
Let me start by saying; This is a very secure product, well made and study. I realize that manufactures try to make their product fit as many campers as possible. On my 5th wheel unit the verticle up-right closest to the camper would not fit, there is not enough room for it and the bike rack to fit under the base of the camper. The position for the rear bumper prohibits this from happening, the front of the bumper tucks under the rear of the camper. To help stablize my bicycles more, I drilled an additional hole in this up-right and mounted it to the opposite side of the rack in the same position of the other verticle up-right, using longer bolts, it works great now. I'm sure this voided my warranty, Oh well.
We bought the Swagman 4 Bike Carrier RV Mounted Bike Rack and the cam buckle tie down straps. We've used both and are very satisfied with the quality. We normally don't write reviews but were extremely happy with the service we received from etrailer.com. They really made an extra effort to make sure our shipment arrived to us before we went out of town and their customer service is excellent. Thanks for a great experience.
Product was delivered on time, completely operational as described, fit on
the camper bumper in easy fashion, was exactly the right size and works for carrying bikes and even some other camper items.
Would recommend this for use, making sure you get the right size, and there is no problem with installation even around the spare tire bracket.
We mounted this bike rack on the back bumper of our 23' travel trailer after having problems with other racks and it has worked flawlessly. Our three bikes remained stationary and secure while we traveled in our RV continuously for 11 months and over 15,000 miles around the whole US.
Although we have not put the bikes on the rack yet, it seems to be a sturdy product, and was not difficult to attach to our camper bumper. THANX

It has worked fine for our camping trips, holds all our bikes... THANX
We have had our bike rake for over a year now and we have been very happy with it. We have used the rack several times. Bikes are easily to put on and the rack has held up well. The 2 vertical post are very helpful for strapping the bike to and making sure the bikes are nice and secure.
The bike rack was also very easy to assemble to my camper. I had no issues.

I like the looks of this bike carrier. It would appear the bikes will not bang together while traveling. Not sure if I understand how the bikes are tied down. Doesnt appear to be any uprights to tie the bike to. Please clarrify. Thanks.
