Product Description SWAGMAN 64665 4 BIKE RAC XC F/2" RCVR
Amazon.com Product Description Transport up to four bikes at once whether driving across country or to the campsite with the Swagman XC-4 cross-country bike rack. Designed to fit a two-inch receiver hitch, the bike rack makes it easy to load and unload your bikes from ground level. The rack includes a set of fast-adjustable, quick-release tire hoops and a ratcheting top arm, helping it fit a wide range of bike frames. In addition, the rack's center arm folds down when not in use, making it easy to access the rear of the vehicle without removing the rack. And to ensure that your rack doesn't rust over time, the XC-4 is powder coated. Built to provide more ground clearance than other racks, the cross-country rack comes with new and improved wheel straps for bicycle security.

Just what we needed! July 3, 2007 Totally Texas Mom 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
In a family of five, we have dirtbikes, slick racers and even Mom's beach machine. No two frames are alike, and our much loved Yakima rack has had to be retired...only the road bike frames fit on it! That leaves the kids out - enter the Swagman! Cool! We can fit 4 totally different bikes on this ultra user-friendly rack and put the smallest bike in the back of the Xterra. Unbelievable! Easy to install (once you figure out that you have to take apart what they've already put together) and a cinch to load and unload. It even folds up out of the way, but not too tall to obstruct the rearview. Thanks, Swagman, for thinking of the multifacited biking family! P.S. Buy a locking pin for the hitch - this one's a keeper.
Nice Rack June 30, 2008 Michael Trouten (Michigan) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This rack rides excellent on the back of my Avalanche. Hauls 4 bikes with a great deal of ease. There were a couple of small drawbacks. It takes a bit of time to get the bikes aligned decent, so they do not rub together. Once loaded properly though, they do not move. My major complaint however; is, the rubber covering the clamp that locks the tube into place, rubs off and leaves the tube marred. I have placed some lambs wool onto the clamps to alleviate that problem. Overall, this is a great rack and carries the bikes without any serious issues. Well worth the money, in fact it is by far the best rack going for the price.
Quality January 15, 2009 dca (SoCal) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Best rack I have owned due to total versatility. Fits a Toyota Sequoia perfectly and the threaded hitch pin pulls tight to prevent lateral movement. Any style bike will go on this rack because of the unlimited individual adjustibility. The frame work and welding is excellent. When the bikes are unloaded the rack folds up out of the way. Super quick on off loading. Just remember which bike goes in which position! Cons: Super poor instructions plus have a magnifying glass ready.

Built solid...sturdy September 7, 2009 NW 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was my first bike rack purchase so I had to do lots of research. I read many comments that mentioned bikes aren't made to hang from the cross bar as they do with the other kind of design....made sense to me. So I looked into one were it sat on it's wheels. The bike rack is heavy but I can pick it up by myself. You will have a much easier time carrying it if you step near the middle of it and straddle one side while walking. The bikes are very stable while driving, although they will bounce around if you go over a large enough bump. It will take a little getting use to positioning the bikes at first....getting the tire supports just right. But after that it's a matter of putting them in and securing them, just a few minutes. One more tip...I put a small towel under the top support arm while securing it to the cross arm of the bike. This prevented it from leaving rubber residue on the bike...no big deal though, just fyi.
