Will Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack part # S44FR Clear Rear Bumper of 2024 Flagstaff Micro Lite  

Updated 10/27/2025 | Published 03/16/2025

Question:

I have a 2024 Flagstaff Micro Lite 21FBRS. I am looking at buying a Swagman Dispatch bike rack. Our 2 bikes weigh 45 and 35 lbs. There is a two inch hitch. I have a spare tire mounted on bumper. I can move the tire to the side of the bumper but was still wondering if the extension on bike rack would extend enough to be able to put both bikes on rack. What is measurement for the extension rod? Also what does bike rack weigh? Max weight for hitch is 300lbs. Thank you for any help with this.

Hey Bonnie, on the Swagman Dispatch Bike Rack part # S44FR there is a distance of 12 inches from the center of it's hitch pin hole to the pivot hinge. This is normally pretty easily enough clearance to fit past an RV bumper. The weight of the rack is 51 lbs.

Hey Bonnie, did the 12-inch extension on the Swagman Dispatch give you enough clearance past your spare tire? Knowing how it fit could help others setting up a similar RV bike rack.

@JamesonC The 12 inch extension gave us plenty of clearance past the spare tire to put two bikes on rack. Never had a problem with the rack on a 5000 mile trip out west.
