At our children's urging we recently purchased bicycles for ourselves so that we could take family rides together. Since we are not experienced cyclists, perhaps I am not the best judge of a bike rack; in fact, this is the first bike rack I have ever owned and perhaps that makes me a mite too critical.

That being said, however, on the whole, I am very pleased with this rack. It holds our four bikes extremely securely, including my women's frame bike (one of the reasons we decided to go with a platform-style bike rack, like this one). The bikes, when firmly fastened, don't budge at all. I like the fact that the bike rack tilts upward, away from the road, which gives us an added sense of security when driving over bumps. I like the fact that the arms ratchet down, rather than screw down, as a competitive rack does, as I find that we are often securing and then releasing the arms to better the position the bikes. Screwing and unscrewing would drive me up the wall. Plus, the... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Swagman XC-4 Cross-Country Bike Rack, September 6, 2009

This review is from: Swagman XTC-4 Cross-Country 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver Hitch) (Sports)
If you are considering this rack, you have the same questions I had. How much of a hassle is it to hook up? Will the bikes ride securely without knocking into each other? Will the rack wobble/shake? Can you really load 4 bikes securely? Can road bikes fit as securely as MTBs? I've driven my '08 Yukon over 2,000 miles with the rack on back for the last 10 weeks. I've had 1,2,3,& 4 bikes loaded at various times. My simple answer is that it does all of the above well and therefore I highly recommend it.

Concerns: This is not a light rack (which is why is rides so securely) and though I can set it up on my vehicle myself, it is much easier with two people. The arms that come down to secure the bikes have a black pad that contacts your bike. This pad for some reason leaves a resin on the bike so I always put a rag between the arm pad and my bike to eliminate the resin marks. No big deal but the manufacturer should change this in its next product iteration. It... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality, January 14, 2009
This review is from: Swagman XTC-4 Cross-Country 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver Hitch) (Sports)
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.
