Good bag to protect bikes when driving down road. No instructions on how the use the attached straps. Living in Amarillo TX previous bag only survived three months before being shredded due to winds. Used this one only when towing. It too started to shredd right where hitch goes through bag. Great at keeping bikes out of sight. Currently using for one men’s road bike and one cargo e-bike.
The bag appears to be very well made and extremely large. I have not taken it on the road yet but I did buy a truck bed expandable cargo net to put around the bag using bungie cords to prevent damage to the bag caused by flapping. I have assembled it one time and it makes a neat looking package at the end of my Wolf Pup. Initially I am very satisfied.

To carry two bicycles, the bag could be a lot smaller. When it rains water flows into the bag, and there it stays. The two drain holes should be replaced by a rectangular mesh to allow water to flow out. The basic 1 in x 1 in drain holes that exist are useless. Thr truck bed cargo net and bungee cords are what really makes the bag work by fitting it to the two bicycles.
Somewhat difficult to cover bikes, but I like that it covers everything like a glove. I'm sure it will get easier with practice.

Excellent bike cover. Keeps our bikes dry from one coast to the other and back. Would highly recommend!!!!
It took us several uses to finally understand how all the straps worked best. We have two mountain bikes and bought a two-bike cover, but it's GINORMOUS. I wonder if we got a four-bike cover accidentally? Plus, I wonder why the zipper goes across the top of the cover instead of the bottom? Zippers leak, and there are some concave area that develop on the top between bikes or between handle bars and the seats that will collect rain and subsequently leak. Regardless, I still award five stars and recommend it to others.

Still a five-star product. I recommend that after you figure out how it works best,take a picture for reference. Carry a three-step folding ladderstool if using it on a travel trailer bumper as its very difficult to zip the top closed.
This is my second Swagman bike cover. The first one “only” lasted about 10yrs!!! It’s still good, just sun-bleached purple. Amazingly durable material. This one is really large. I think three full-size bikes would fit. We have folding e-bikes but only fold the handles down. Lots of extra material. We just bungee strap all the extra material down. This works great for us! I recommend this item,

It’s still great! No issues. Tough stuff!
The bag is very large and covers our two bikes easily. It has 5 straps to tighten front to back or across the bikes. I added an additional strap running around the length and between the tires of the bikes. It pulls in the excess bag and less to flap in the wind. I didn't want to take the chance of it damaging the paint on the back of our RV. It does not repel water, so I sprayed the upper 2/3 with water repellent for tents. It now keeps the bikes dry. I wish that the strap snaps were more durable. It is hard to keep from stepping on them when mounting the rack, bag and bikes. I have already cracked one. Otherwise, the materials are good.
Not really user friendly. You have to unzip layout on the ground and then slide part of trailer through a hole then put trailer in hitch. If it rains while in use water puddles in bottom of unit and drags ground because the drain holes are too high. With the strapping system water also pools on top of the bikes.
I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it appears to be well constructed and fits over both bikes. I have the Swagman rack for transporting the bikes, and it is all as advertised. I expect no less from this product.

I used this cover on a monthlong trip from So Cal to Northern Oregon last summer. It worked just as advertised, and held up to miles or wind, and weather changes without any damage. Great product
Love that this cover attaches to the hitch to give complete coverage of the bikes to protect our bikes while traveling. The only downside is that it will hold water if the drain hole isn’t perfectly aligned at the bottom. We also like that it includes several built-in straps. However, the clasps could be a little more stout. Overall we like this cover and would buy it again.
Bag is spacious enough, our bikes fit with extra room. Like how it zips up snd encases the bikes. The only con is the cover isn’t easily removed from the bike rack. We’ve travelled over 2000 miles using the cover
Kept all water and road dirt off of our bikes all the way from Michigan to Florida!
I have always gotten great service from etrailer. Most recently I purchased a replacement bike cover and Adam even gave me his direct number to call him if there was any problem with the product. Their personal attention is rare these days when all you can do is talk to a robot. Kudos to etrailer, and especially Adam!
It did a great job protecting our bikes. I have it mounted above the tow bar on a Gen Y five port glitch rack. I was concerned about the heat coming off of our motor coach, but it ended up working fine.
Excellent quality and easy to use (once you have it aligned up correctly) and bonus, it even covers my bikes off the hitch at night. The one suggestion I have is I wish I could remove it easily from the RV without removing the hitch.
Just got back from a 900 mile trip and the cover held up to heavy winds while parked at our camp site plus 2 days of non let up rain. While on the road the cover stayed in place not flipping in the wind, this is exactly what was needed. THANK YOU
Fits two bike very well, there is quite a bit of excess cover you have to manage with the straps provided but extra bungees will help keep everything tighter.
We had difficulties putting this on, but I watched the video several times.
I thought this cover was water proof, but when it rained, the bikes got all wet. that was my biggest disappointment.
So I had to add another cover over the bikes.

That is a bummer about the bikes! This cover is water resistant but not water proof. You also want to make sure that you are only using the cover when the rack is on the back of an RV.
It is a pain to install, but provides comlete isolatoin from the elements! I rhink that is especially important when transporting over salted roads.
This is a high quality cover. Watch the assembly video from etrailer because this gives an accurate assessment of the cover. It covers two large e-bikes and their large bike rack, the material is of good quality. The only small glitch, as the video points out, it is very large and cumbersome. We manage the baggy excess material from blowing in the wind by wrapping a couple large elastic staps around the cover after we've finished covering the bikes for a trip. We bought a 4 pack of 1 inch wide long elastic straps reasonably priced at WalMart. (Yellow straps with black plastic hooks). This does the trick.
Fit very well over our two bikes. Plenty of straps to tighten up the loose ends. Keeps the bikes protected from rain and road debris. Convenient pre made holes allow for hitch, tie down bars to pass through. Great product
The cover worked well when traveling down the road behind RV to keep the road dirt off the bikes. The issue I have is it did not protect well when stationary and in the rain. The cover collected a bit of water in the bottom of the bag that had to be drained. The bikes were also wet on the inside of the cover. etrailer provided Swagman customer servicer which I contacted and described the issue.. Swagman indicated the bag is water resistant and not water proof and therefore the water accumulated is normal. etrailer customer service was very responsive and offered a full refund.
I love the build quality of your product, it does what you want it to do. If I had one complaint is that you can't take it off with out taking the bike rack off. But I understand why.

Love this product more and more every time I use it
After having the Hollywood Racks bike rack for a year, I am very pleased with how it has worked for us. We have it on our fifth wheel and have put around 8,000 miles carrying two e-bikes. We have always been happy with the numerous items we have purchased from etrailer.
If you're looking for a cover to protect your bikes from the elements, this is it. It's a bit difficult to put on since it has to go through the hitch first, but it does an excellent job. After traveling 1500 miles, everything was dry and clean even though we went through multiple storms and even some slushy snow. You probably won't find anything better cover at this price, or even a higher price. Very satisfied with the quality as well.
This is just what I've been looking for. A cover that totally encapsulates the bicycles and keeps them clean while traveling. With my old cover, the bicycles would get very dusty and dirty with road grime coming up from the bottom of the bicycles where they weren't covered. This cover is very large and covers two adult size mountain bikes with plenty of room to spare. The slack in the cover is easily folded and held down with straps.

Works very well when towing but if you stop for a few days in a windy location TX panhandle it’s best to remove it. It will shred if it gets too much wind. Only thing I do not like is you have to remove rake to remove bad.
