Swagman was one of the first companies worldwide to design and market a hitch style bike rack. Over the years, that small bike rack company based in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia grew to include numerous other ground breaking designs in the North American Bicycle, RV and Automobile markets.The XTC2 is not recommended for use with carbon frames. The XTC2 does not accept padlocks. If you want to lock your bikes to the rack, please consider purchasing the Swagman Anti-Wobble Threaded Hitch Pin & Cable desertcart.com The XTC Cross-Country 2-Bike Rack is designed to make it easy to carry two bikes securely on your car's hitch with no risk of bike-on-car, or bike-on-bike damage. Thanks to a built-in anti-wobble device, the platform-style rack secures solidly to 2 or 1.25-inch hitches. To load the bikes, simply lift them into the wheel platforms, secure the wheels with the integrated wheel straps, and secure the grip arms over the frames. With push button ratcheting arms and sliding wheel platforms, the rack provides a custom fit for bikes with 20 to 29-inch wheels and can accommodate multiple frame types. The soft frame-friendly coating on the grip arms, ensures that your bikes' finishes remain unmarred. In comparison to roof mounted bike racks that generally require you to remove the bike's front wheel and hitch-mounted cradle carriers that don't support the bikes from the base, the XTC Cross-Country is easy to use and worry free. Whether your rack is fully loaded or not in use, the rack provides ready access to your car's trunk. The rack folds up for easy storage when not in use and the center arm folds down to allow access to the rear of vehicle without removing the rack. Built to last, the XTC Cross-Country 2-Bike Rack carries a limited lifetime warranty from Swagman. Please note: an optional locking hitch pin and 10-millimeter security cable can be used with this rack and are sold separately.

Review: Great Rack..... - Was looking at these for a while and finally decided to pick one up. I love it! Very easy to use. Bikes can be put on or taken off in seconds. I really like the fact that you can lock the arms down with a padlock....just make sure the lock just barely fits through the hole. I bought the masterlock 131 set on the advice of an earlier review and THOSE ONLY WORK FOR THE HITCH PIN to lock the rack into your hitch reciever. If the lock on the arm is too small, you can still squeeze the release in far enough to move the arms up and down(no point in wasting the money for a lock in that case). For locking the arms down onto the bikes, I found that the masterlock 141 works perfect once you run a drill bit through the hole. It almost fits already but is maybe a millimeter off. Just find a bit that is the same size as the hole and run it through a couple of times to smooth the metal inside and the lock will fit perfectly. I bought a 3 lock set so that all the locks will work with a single key. I needed the third because I own a jeep and with the spare tire in the way I had to add a hitch extension to get the inside bike away from the tire. That defeats the idea of using a lock on the hitch pin. I just use a cable and the third lock to lock the rack to the hitch. I bought the hitch extension here on desertcart as well (Advantage Hitch Extension for bicycle racks). Works great and also has the anti wobble setup just like the rack. Thought it might add some movement, but the rack seems just as solid as it did without it. The rack will work without it, but with the spare tire so close, you have to remove the pedal closest to the vehicle. So, if you're looking for a really simple and convenient bike rack, and you have a reciever for a hitch on your car or truck, this is the best I've found.....even bought a second one for my girlfriend (so I could keep mine).
Review: perfect - This a great bike carrier. Assembly is pretty easy, though I was glad to have read a previous review to have some idea of what to do with the two little screws that were left over and not mentioned in the directions at all. They go on the bottom side of the carrier, I think to secure the little plastic caps on the ends of the horizontal rail. Another reviewer also mentioned something about the ratcheting arms and one being longer than the other and that it mattered which order you put them on. That made sense to me once I tried to put a bike on the carrier and I have to switch them around. Don't worry, you'll figure it out if you did it wrong and it is easy enough to switch them around. The longer arm goes on first. The carrier went right into my 1 1/4 receiver with no problems. I find that I have to pull the carrier out just a tad from fully inserted to line up the holes for the pin. The threaded hitch pin is sort of a pain to get screwed in, but it does do a great job of getting the carrier secure and as wobble-less as possible. I used a ratcheting socket wrench to fasten it. Soon after I got the carrier I ordered the Swagman locking hitch pin so that I could leave the carrier on my car without worrying about theft. It is not extremely quick and easy to get the carrier on and off the car, so I wouldn't plan to be doing it everyday. Since the top arm folds down, you can leave it on your vehicle (without bikes) and still open a back hatch or trunk. I have the carrier on a Mazda 5 van and with the top arm folded down, my back door opens just fine. Getting bikes on and off the carrier couldn't be easier. Once you adjust the wheel loops to the right distance for your bikes, it is as easy as setting your bike in them, pull the straps through the wheels and bring the top arm down tight on the top tube. Just make sure your wheels are resting in the loops equally and you get the top tube of the bike up in that arm loop. I have taken my aluminum frame road bike out on the carrier a couple of times so far and it works great- the carrier does rock back and forth some, but not excessively. The bike feels really secure. I really like how quick and easy it is to get my bike on this carrier, as I have used it to take my bike halfway to work and then bike the rest of the way. I'm usually rushing to get to work on time, and I'm glad that I don't have to take extra time to mess with getting my bike on or off the car with a lot of straps or anything else. I also feel that it holds my new expensive bike securely and I'm not worried about banging up my bike or my car or causing an accident.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid Carrier That Works Well
*by A***R on August 25, 2014*

This is a solid carrier that works well for it's price point. All in all I'm quite pleased with this rack and would buy it again. It's good enough. Yes, there are things that could be improved, but this really does the job no problems. Good: * Works great with a Honda Civic. Doesn't bottom out or sit too low. * It takes just a couple of minutes to remove and not much longer to install. * The threaded bolt is a bit of a pain, but I just keep a cheap ratchet in the trunk now. * It's reasonably light and I can stow it in the trunk of my Honda Civic with no problems. * Pickup a couple master lock 141s for the hooks and a 131 to replace the cotter pin. Everything just fit for me, no drilling. Bad: * the screw stops just go into plastic. It's really cheap / not very solid. Not a threaded hole like it should be. * As other reviewers mentioned, it's just a couple of (large) allen bolts to remove the cross beam. * No good way to lock trays and main beam--I just use an old cable lock. It works well enough.
