Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
So far I’ve just assembled it and took a quick test drive around the block. My initial thought is this thing is perfect. It’s super sturdy and easy to use. My only gripe and it’s not fault of the rack, but it’s heavy…
If you've done any research or read any of the other comments on either this rack, or this seller...rest assured they really are as good as everyone says! I ordered my rack on around 4pm est on a Friday afternoon and within an hour I received an email that said they have shipped my product AND upgraded to priority shipping. Can't say enough positive things about the customer service! When the rack arrived, it took me a little over half an hour to get it set up. Probably would e been faster if I were even slightly mechanically inclined (or if didn't I didn't have to borrow a socket wrench from my neighbor). We finally had an opportunity to load up the bikes and head out for a ride today. As others have said, the first time you load up your bikes, it's kind of like a puzzle to get them situated. Took about 15 minutes. This rack is awesome! Very sturdy and the bikes were very secure. Only racks I have had in the past were rooftop fork mount racks. This is so much easier! On e we got to the trail (over an hour drive) getting the bikes off was a piece of cake. Afterwards, it was time to load them back up and it was less than 5 minutes to get them all on and ready to hit the road. There were other 4-bike racks on the website, but this one had enough great reviews that I felt comfortable making the purchase. After the fact, I'm very glad I did! I can't imagine the $800 rack can be that much better than this, and I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a 4-bike platform rack. I will definitely recommend this rack and etrailer.com to everyone I know.

Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
I just bought this bike rack for my Pathfinder. The product arrived fast and in good condition. The quality seems good and set up was easy. Initial test drive went perfect. I will add to this post once I take my trip. Must admit I did nor think about locks before hand so I'm doing that now.
It was really easy to put together. I was able to adjust all the moving parts to fit my bike. It was easy to hitch and fit my Nissan Pathfinder 2013 perfectly. I do recommend that if you don't have a bar that goes across your bike that you would need one. You have to purchase separately. I will have to get one of those for my cruiser style bike.

Swagman Upright Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Roof Rack Crossbars - Frame Mount
The bike rack worked well and I'm happy with the quality for the affordable cost. There is only one problem I encountered with the unit. The instructions show that the U-bolts should be attached using plastic hand tighten nuts and then a standard nut after that. Neither of the two units I purchased included enough hardware for the standard nut for the U-bolt. The plastic hand tighten nuts were all that I was able to use to attach the U-bolts. Since the instructions show additional hardware, the user is left wondering if the rack is properly secured. I called Swagman and talked to customer service. They said they will send additional hardware and pass the information along to the appropriate people in the company.
Planning on bringing bikes while camping. I mounted 2 of the Swagman bike racks to my new Sportrack on my pop-up camper. The bikes fit perfectly. The racks seem sturdy enough. Not heavy duty, but for my needs they should be fine. Assembly was relatively fast and easy.
