4 out of 5 stars Great Bike Carrier   November 27, 2008

My old carrier suspended bikes from the crossbar. I got a semi-recumbent and my wife got a woman's step through style. Neither would work well on the old carrier. This hitch mount rack is sufficiently adjustable to accommodate both with security. I love it.


4 out of 5 stars SOLID...but   November 10, 2008

Very solid way to mount bikes but you may have to make a couple of changes to carry two bikes of greatly different sizes. I ride a 61cm frame road bike. My wife rides a small frame hybrid. I had to install the wheel holding loops upside down in order to fit the larger bike. (Got this idea from another review of the same rack). I also replaced the plastic adjusting knobs with hex bolts in order to tighten the loops securely. I cut a small length of foam pipe insulation to protect the frame where the hooks touch...just a precaution. br / br /Once set up, bikes are easy to load and unload. There is NO movement while driving. If you have a pickup and are carrying two bikes with straight handle bars (mountain bikes), there maybe a clearance issue with the bike closest to the truck. There is a longer bar available in that case. SUV's should have no problem.


5 out of 5 stars A rack I would recommend to anyone!   October 6, 2008

I have used the Swagman XC quite a few times already and it has impressed me with its ease of use and storage. When it comes time to mount my bike, it takes seconds instead of minutes. Put the bike in the wheel hoops and slide the frame grip arm down and I'm done! I even attach a lock to the frame grip arm for added security. When I'm done with the rack, the way it comes apart and folds, I store it in the back of my Jeep. I would even recommend this rack to my close friends, that's how much I like it!

I purchased this 2-bike rack with the additional 2-bike add-on for four bikes total. This is an extremely well built and well designed item that is SO user friendly. I absolutely love it.

After reading the favorable reviews of this product on Amazon.com, I ordered this product. It was delivered on time and took all but 15 minutes to assemble and install. We use it transporting two bikes on our Honda Pilot. It is well designed and holds two bikes very securely. There is no movement of the bikes when driving and the vertical member can be rotated into horizontal position when you want open the tail gate. I am very pleased with this product.
