This 4-bike rack is perfect for a family who travels. Rotating cradles accommodate most standard and alternative bike frames. Heavy-duty frame handles the extra bounce and sway that results from being mounted on the back of your RV.

Built for RVs
The Swagman XP is built to withstand the added vibration and stress that comes from being installed on the back of your RV. The base has no moving parts, and the mast attaches to the shank with steel-reinforced brackets. These overbuilt components ensure that the rack can take any punishment that the road may inflict.
Individual Rotating Cradles
The rack has cradles that secure your bikes by the top tube, down tube, or seat tube. Each cradle rotates to ensure your bikes hang level on the rack, reducing the risk of ground clearance issues. You can also adjust the spacing of each cradle to help keep your bikes from bumping into each other.
Soft rubber padding inside each cradle protects your bikes from scratches and scuffs. The padding has grooves on the surface that prevent your brake and shifter cables from getting pinched.
A threaded hitch pin is included to help eliminate rattle in the hitch receiver during transport. It fits the threaded hole at the end of the shank. To tighten the pin in your hitch, use a 5/8" wrench (not included). Clips are also included to keep each pin in place.
You can install the rack in a 1-1/4" hitch or in a 2" hitch. To use it in 2" hitch, simply remove the adapter with the included Allen key.
A lock on the hand knob secures your bikes to the rack. Once locked, the hand knob will spin freely so a would-be thief can't operate it.
An anti-rattle hitch lock (sold separately) is available to secure the rack to your vehicle.
Available Adapter Bar
If you have a women's bike, kid's bike, or any other bike without a straight, horizontal top tube, you will need an adapter bar (sold separately) to properly mount your bike. The bar fits between the seat post and handlebar stem post of your bike to create a top tube so your bike hangs level on the rack.

Great product -
Very sturdy and very secure. Carrys three bikes without a problem. Little more difficult to carry a ladies bike, but they are always a pain.
Do not over tighten nut it will strip and you will not be able to use the rack for the bike.
After reading the reviews, my husband I bought this bike rack for our 2009 RAV4 knowing full well that we were going to be unable to open the cargo door when the bike rack was mounted. So I want to be clear that we are ok with that less than perfect feature, while at the same time let others with a RAV4 know that this is how this bike rack will work with a RAV4 if they get this rack. Also in regard to the complaint about the bolt that inserts in the hitch receiver, I would like to add that the Kotter pin that mounts on the end of this bolt does not stay on well, but the threads in the bolt if tightened well, look like they will hold if the pin is lost. I would like to also point out that there is not a plate on either end of the rack where the 3 bike cradles mount, so if the U-bolts on the cradles come lose, you could either lose a bike or have one slide off the back and hit the spare tire carrier on the RAV. Now with all that said, here's the good so far....once the bolt is tightened in the hitch receiver pin hole, there is absolutely no wobble in the rack. My women's coaster bike fit in the cradle just fine without an adapter. The shipping time was super fast and although the box looked like it had been to war, it was still sealed and intact and the rack arrived in good shape. Since the rack just arrived yesterday, we have not yet had time to road test the bike rack on the back of the RAV loaded with bikes yet. One other selling point for us was the fact that this rack can be used on the back of an RV also.
Great design. Industrial strength.
Sturdy and easy to put together. Just what I need for the back of the travel trailer.
