Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount
My order arrived today and I have not yet had an opportunity to install it on my 2009 Town and Country tailgate. I have no doubt it will work as advertised, the instructions are very precise and easy to follow. I would like to commend the personnel who assisted me online, everyone who was involved in the order followed up with an email informing me exactly what stage my order was in. Item arrived when promised and with no damage,,,kudos to you!
Way too light duty for what is advertised. It seemed to be made out of 1/2 inch electrical conduit. I would never put three bikes on that rack. I only had two bikes on the rack. While on trip through Idaho the wind was so strong that one of the bikes partially blew off the rack. We traveled 1,800 miles and upon arriving home I actually sawed the bike rack up and threw it away so that no one else would use it and cause an accident. I've already found a different brand that is HEAVY DUTY and I will stick with that brand.

Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style
Like many others, impressed by the information on the site and the speed in processing / shipping my order. Loved seeing the video demo of how to install on our Town and Country. After I received it, I was initially frustrated as even with the Bike Adapter Bar (TH982XT) I couldn't seem to get both bikes on the rack and have decent clearance from the ground -- my test was to drive out of our drive way and if a bike wheel hit the pavement when dropping off the curve they weren't high enough. I was also initially frustrated with the spacing between the bikes. I was contemplating whether to return or not, and after I realized you could adjust the spacing between the bike straps on the arms. This allowed me to make the adjustment necessary in bike spacing to have them both fit fairly easily. I did have to adjust seat height on both bikes to get the fit right...looking forward to actual test in a couple weeks when we take the bikes camping.
Great customer service. Was delivered to my door in two days from the day I ordered. Always kept me informed as their website showed my item order info from the time I ordered to the person who picked my order to the location and time it made it to UPS for delivery. Well constructed and instruction booklet was very detailed.

Swagman Upright Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Roof Rack Crossbars - Frame Mount
Great product arrived on time packaged great easy to install great value.
Great product for the price. Pretty easy to set up. Only issue I have is my mountain bike, which is an XL frame with 27 inch wheels, is pushing the limits of the base. Wish this rack was just 4-5 inches longer that way you have the perfect overlap amount in the middle without pushing the current frame to the limits. With that said it does hold my bike just have to find the sweet spot. But this fits my son’s youth bike perfectly!

Curt Bike Rack for 5 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Tilting
The straps are junk and four of them tore within a week of using them. I also almost lost one bike because of the straps. If I could I would return this unit.
We used this bike rack for at least 2 RV trips. The third trip we took we lost one bike off of the rear most rack. Ended up having to replace this bike rack with one from another store. Would only recommend for local trips only.

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Very good. Product arrived in good order. Very simple to assemble. Installed easily in the 2" hitch (ordered at same time) with no issues. Already had the 2" hitch spacers mounted to bike rack out of the box. I was surprised at the stiffness of the bike rack and the ease of mounting my bike. No wobbling like you see with many others. It will make it a breeze to bring bikes along on our next outing. Highly recommend.
This is a well designed rack. Adding and removing bikes is quick & easy. Just set the bike on & slide the padded hook down onto the bike frame to secure it; no straps required. If only one bike is transported, it does not interfere with opening the trunk on our Tesla Model 3. With 2 bicycles the trunk cannot be opened. For 2 bikes the Swagman model that can tilt might be worth the extra 22 bucks. This rack uses a bolt in the receiver hitch instead of a pin. This locks it securely preventing it from moving in the hitch & rattling. It also requires a wrench to remove it, good for theft prevention but one more thing to keep track of. For storage on the vehicle the top bar folds down. For storage in the garage, the left & right bars fold up & you can hang it using one of the hooks.

Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
I was sent additional mounting materials that don't correspond with my hitch or my bike rack. See the photo below. Are these materials for my Swagman STC2 Bike Rack Item #S64670?
Very stable and simple to use bike rack that works great with my road bike AND with my 29" Big Rippers. It makes loading and unloading the bikes a snap and they are safe and secure for traveling once loaded and secured. I have already logged over a thousand miles hauling bicycles with this rack and highly recommend it. I am a big fan of Yakima roof racks but, honestly, wish I would have went with this setup for my bikes from the beginning.

Swagman XTC4 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Rack is very sturdy and heavy duty. Instructions were terrible. Locking hitch pin would not thread correctly and ended up damaging it. Thankfully the threads on rack were fine and I was able to use the non-locking threaded pin. Would like a replacement locking pin ASAP
For the price, it's a good-quality, sturdy bike rack. I have used it about 5-7 times with no issues. I only used it for one adult and two kids' bikes, but I am sure it can handle four bikes as advertised. It's great that the rack folds upwards when it's not required.

Swagman Trailhead Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
This is a very solid product! I have used it for over a year now and love it! I have had up to 3 bikes on this without a problem and have traveled over 8 hours in the car one way with absolutely no issues. Many other bike racks like this one that I see on other cars look unstable this is not unstable in anyway. I did have to file some of the paint off of the rack to get it to fit in my 1 and 1/4" hitch but once that was done it has been perfect. I also bought the locking hitch bolt which is awesome too.
Well built and good quality. So glad I can haul bikes easier with our Honda Pilot now!

SportRack Pursuit Bike Rack for 3 Bikes - Fixed Arms - Trunk Mount
We love our bike rack. It's been perfect for our needs!
I really liked this product, it was easy to set up and very secure on the back of my minivan. The bikes were held very securely and everything stayed in place without any marks on the vehicle. I would definitely recommend.

SportRack Ridge Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Swing Away
One Year Later – Still Going Strong I’ve owned this rack for a year now, and I couldn’t be happier. It securely holds all 4 of my bikes, even on longer road trips, with no shifting or wobble. One of my favorite features is the ability to tilt the rack away from the vehicle—even when it's fully loaded. That’s a huge convenience and makes it super practical for daily use. Durable, easy to use, and thoughtfully designed. Highly recommend if you're looking for a reliable 4-bike solution.
This bike rack has worked well for us. We have a Jeep Wrangler, with the spare tire on the back of the tailgate, and needed a rack that would hold the bikes in a trailer hitch, and swing away so we could easily access the rear storage of the jeep. This has worked out perfectly! I did have to use a hitch extender to clear the rear tire, but that was expected. The rack works well, holds the bikes as expected, and is easy to use, and get on and off the vehicle. I am very satisfied!

Curt Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Tilting
This rack has worked well for us. I fits the Curt hitch perfectly. It is easy to attach bicycles securely. We can get three adult bicycles on this hitch (see photo). There are sufficient means to protect against sway.
This Curt bike carrier is ideal for my front hitch that I recently installed on my 2005 GMC. I had to remove my front tag holder for clearance but it works perfectley. It can be easily removed and installed on the back hitch when I'm not towing my camper. This is a well built and solid bike carrier. It was delivered very timely and well packaged.

Yakima RidgeBack Bike Rack for 5 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
This Yakima 5 bike rack is exactly what I needed. It's very easy to mount and very sturdy.
Rack is very easy to install and remove, and fits well with no rattle in the 2" receiver. Loading bikes is easy and it will, indeed, hold 5 bikes with relatively little effort. The only negatives I have are 1) Unless I use Yakima's custom locking cable for this rack, there is no good way to lock bicycles to the rack 2) It wasn't clear to me that I would need adapter bars (8002531) for kids bikes. I've always managed to get them on my older racks, but not the Yakima. I suspect that most modern racks would need these bars. Overall, very satisfied.

Swagman Fork Down Roof Mounted Bike Carrier - Fork Mount
Our roof rack rails have a slight curve. I was a challenge to get the bike to mount vertically. On the curve it naturally sits leaned at an angle.
Excellent budget rooftop bike carrier.

We already have a bike installed on the rack, let's go ahead and take a close look and show off some of the features. The first feature I'd like to show off is how the bars are shaped. This is pretty unique for a hanging style rack. They start narrow and then they fan out as they go towards the rear. With the narrower ones, you can use this for smaller bikes such as kids' bikes. The cradles are adjustable along the arms to make loading a little bit easier.
Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2012 Chrysler Town and Country
Today on our 2012 Chrysler Town & Country, we're going to be test fitting the Kuat Transfer three bike rack, part number TS03G. We already have a bike on the rack. Let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. The first feature we'd like to show of is that with this van in particular, the hitch sits pretty low to the ground. Thanks to the raised shank of the bike rack itself, you're not going to have an clearance issues with your bikes. Another really great feature about this is the fact that this can tilt away from the vehicle with the bike still attached. To do that, I'll have to lift these up here just to get to it.

This is unique for a hanging style bike rack because the bikes can still be attached. Let's go and show you how to do that. Come here to the bottom to this knob here, turn it loose.
Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2012 Chrysler Town and Country
Today on our 2012 Chrysler Town & Country, we're going to be test-fitting the Thule Vertex Swing 4 Bike Rack, part number TH9031XT. We already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's go and take a closer look and show off some of the features. The first and probably most important feature of this rack is the fact that this can swing away from the vehicle with the bike still attached, which is pretty unique for a hanging-style rack. To do that, we'll unscrew this knob at the back, it's loose enough, we'll remove this pin here, and just set it off to the side for now, then lift up on this T-handle, like so, and that will release the actual swing function. Bring it around, and then we'll bring the rack itself back on, like so, so it'll catch right there, and then we'll keep on pushing it the rest of the way, like so.

Now probably the most important feature about this bike rack is the fact that you can tilt it away from the vehicle with the bikes still attached which is pretty unique for a hanging style bike rack. To do that, there's this black handle on the passenger side of the mast. You pull that out like so, let it come towards you and with that, we have total access to our rear hatch to get whatever it is that we need with plenty of space on either side to do so. Like as you see here. To put it back in it's original position you just push it back up, like so. The cradles themselves are adjustable you just pull out these plastic pieces in between and set them up however you like.

Let's go and take a closer look and show off some of the features. Now for this particular vehicle, the first feature I like to show off, is the fact that the pitch itself kind of sits low to the ground and since this has a ray 00:00:21 shank, you're not going to have any ground clearance issues with this bike rack. One of the main features is while this is a four bike rack here, you can remove this section on the end and turn it into just a two bike rack if you wanted to. How the bike is actually attached to the rack, we're going to have three points of contact.

Weve got about 10 inches of ground clearance and 5 inches of clearance between the closest part of the carrier and the closest part of the vehicle. Overall weve added about 18 inches of length to the rear of our Town and Country.
