2-inch receiver hitch The Cross Country "XC" 2-Bike Rail Rack can easily accommodate children's and adult bikes, downhill bikes, cruiser bikes, full suspension bikes, BMX bikes, "Y" frame designs and much more, without the hassle of removing wheels. The XC slides into a 2-inch receiver and carries up to 2 bikes, with an option to carry up to 4 bikes with another module (4 bikes on Class III hitch only). The XC easily adjusts to different bike frame sizes with the simple movement of the wheel hoops. Frame grip arms have a soft-frame friendly coating to protect your bike's finish. When not in use, the rack folds up for easy storage (on or off vehicle), shipping, etc. The XC carries the widest variety of bike frames in its class.

Summary: A Great Bike Rack!
Comment: This is a great bike rack for SUVs with rear door mounted spare tires. I've got a Toyota FJ Cruiser with a 32"x11" mud tire mounted on the rear and this rack will easily clear this large tire.
Here's why I highly recommend this bike rack. First, it's CHEAP, well made and easy to put together and install. Second, there's a 19" hitch extender that's probably long enough to clear up to 35" spare tires mounted to a rear door. Third, the hitch extender is attached to your 2" hitch with a threaded hitch pin bolt that firmly secures the extender to the hitch, so that the extender doesn't move around. Fourth, there are also 2 large pinch bolts that securely attaches to the bottom of the rack at the other end of extender, so that the rack doesn't move around either; this setup is as "solid" as these things get. Fifth, you can choose to use the rack for one or 2 bikes, depending on your needs; ie., you don't have to install the extra hoops and locking mechanism for a 2nd bike if you only carry one bike like I do. Sixth, your bike(s) is (are) firmly attached to the rack and released with a simple padded ratchet mechanism; no need for tie downs for the wheels and/or handles. All you have to do is place the bike in the tire hoops (which are easily adjusted side to side with a tension nut) and then lower the ratchet mechanism on to the bike's cross bar until the bike is firmly secured and it doesn't matter if you have a straight or slanted cross bar, so no special crossbar attachments to the bike are required either. Sixth, you can get into the back of your SUV by removing the bikes and removing the pin in the center vertical locking bar which allows you to lower it to one side or the other. This isn't as convenient as the more expensive tilting or side arm set ups, but it's not as expensive as them either. Seventh, you don't have to lift and load the bikes up high on the car. The tire hoops are at the level of the hitch and aren't perched precariously high up on the roof or on the tire, which makes loading an unloading a breeze. Eighth, if you need to carry more than 2 bikes, there's an accessory that will allow you to carry 4. It doesn't get much better than this!
BTW, I couldn't find a spare tire bike rack that would fit my 32x11" spare tire, so if you have a spare tire that large or larger don't even bother looking for a spare tire bike rack. There aren't any that will work for tires that large. They are for designed for regular passenger sized tires only.

Summary: Love this bike rack
Comment: I use this rack with a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with a large tire mounted on the back and this rack fits just perfectly behind it. The rack is very sturdy and locks my two bikes securely to the vehicle while making stops at restaurants etc. along the way to my destination.

Summary: Bike rack
Comment: Works good, after I got a longer 2" tube section. When I mounted to back of our fifth wheel trailer it was too close so bike would hit trailer. Problem was that my hitch on trailer was mounted under trailer too far.

Summary: Excellent Carrier
Comment: This is a strong carrier, easy to use and transfers easily from vehicle to vehicle. Also folding options allow access to tailgate on trucks and suvs. Very sturdy, no straps to mess with, ratchet down clamps are great.

Summary: Great Product!!
Comment: I have used the Swagman XC Cross-Country 2-Bike Hitch Mount Bike Rack many times. I feel it is a quality built product and also a very versatile mounting system for many frame styles and sizes. The bikes are securely mounted and the threaded bolt-style hitch pin make this a very rattle free and stable mounting system. Once you figure out the best mounting position for your bikes, they are then very quick and easy to load and unload. I considered many styles and brands of bike racks before I made this purchase. I also bought the Swagman 2 Bike add-on for this rack. Now I can have one 4/bike rack, or use it as 2 individual 2/bike racks. I am very satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend this product.
