Description

About Swagman "Ride, paddle, explore: seek your adventure" That philosophy was the intention of founders Jim and Jan Morris who saw an opportunity to create a better way to transport your bike back in the early 90’s. 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.

  • Great Racks!
These came out pretty amazing, and match my cargo racks!! I like the locking feature: the only drawback is that the racks themselves are mounted with u bolts and knobs on it. Someone could easily just unscrew the knobs and take the rack and the bike. Easily fixed with bolts from the store, but that’s more permanent if you need to remove them occasionally for other gear! ... show more

  • Inexpensive alternative for a proven design
This type of rack has been around a long time, and works well if you, like me, require a roof rack and prefer keeping the front wheel on the bike while it's being transported. The rack arm grips the bike's down-tube, holding it upright, and then a wheel strap in front and in back keeps everything in place. The knob for tightening the arm comes with a key lock, so the bike can be locked to the vehicle. Whether this is an adequate theft deterrent depends a lot on how long you leave the bike on top of the car, where you're parked, and if you can keep it in view. Remember, the rack itself does not lock to the roof, so a would-be thief just needs to remove the rack (five thumb screws) to make off with the rack and the bike. So I give the locking feature three stars. It's enough to deter an opportunist. Not enough to deter a determined thief. But on the other hand, most bike locks can be defeated in seconds or minutes with a battery powered grinder. So deterrence is probably about all you can hope for anyway. Carrying a bike: Set the bike on its wheels atop the rack's wheel tray. Then lift the arm up to the bike's down-tube, and tighten it around the down-tube. Finally, place a strap through the wheel tray in front and in back, securing each strap around the bike's wheel. It's pretty easy, and doesn't take long. Assembly: This step consists of six bolts with nuts and washers, two end caps, and a little measuring to make sure you're accommodating your car's rack correctly. It takes a half hour or so. Installation: This step consists of three U-bolts, six thumb screws with washers, and some more measuring and fiddling to get everything lined up right. This takes ten or fifteen minutes the first time. Subsequent installations should take around five to seven minutes. Comparison to "name brand" racks: This rack is sturdy enough. Maybe not quite as heavy a metal gauge as a high end rack, but strong enough and secure enough. Assembly is no fun. It's like the "ready to assemble furniture" experience but for bike racks. A name-brand rack would come further assembled, and with more refined parts. Additionally, installation takes longer than a name brand rack would since you have to screw on several U-bolts. Typically the name brand products have more convenient mounts. And of course they cost 2x to 3x as much as this rack does. One note about the rack's overall bike carrying strategy: This rack does require making contact with the bike's frame where it clamps around the down tube. For nice bikes, and particularly for carbon fiber bikes, you're probably better off with solutions that only make contact with the wheels (examples include the Yakima Front Loader and Top Loader). For steel or aluminum bikes, and bikes where you're less concerned with signs of having been rack-carried, this is fine. I have three racks on top of my car; two Front Loaders, for the nicer bikes, and this one which I use for the kid bike. You can mitigate the wear that the clamp will cause by putting a cloth around the down tube where contact is made. But I probably still wouldn't use this on a lightweight carbon fiber frame. Four stars: It is inexpensive, strong enough, and gets the job done without any fuss. It would be five if the mounting and assembly were easier. ... show more

  • Best on a budget
I bought 4 of these to install on racks over the bed of my truck so I can move the entire family’s bikes while towing our camper and still use the bed for gear. They fit the function perfect and haul all of the varied sizes of bikes my family uses from my Large size frame 29” mountain bike down to my daughters 16” little kid mountain bike. I have them all set at the same length and the bikes have no issues going on and staying very secure. There only two issues both of which I am accepting because the alternative is a single Thule or Yakima rack for the price I paid for all 4 of these. Those issues are: The lock is kind shotty, which as a security device isn’t that big of a deal because I run a cable lock through all of the bikes. However the issue is that the lock is in the large hand turn nut that closes the support arm around the downtube. If this is not locked it will free spin and I lost two of those hand nut/locks while driving unloaded. I replaced them with a nylock nut and wing nut so the function still works but still a bit of a bummer. Second, the opening on the supporting arm at max opening is not quite large enough to fit the downtube of my my Scott Scale 979 (it has a fairly wide oval shaped downtube) and has to be forced pretty hard in and out of the opening. This is inconvenient as loading and unloading takes some effort, but it works perfect once you muscle it in and I have not found a reason to doubt the stability or security of the bike once mounted. All in all these are great if you are like me and have to buy more than one or two. As mentioned earlier I could only buy at most 1 Thule or Yakima rack for the price I paid for 4 of these and they serve the exact same purpose. ... show more

  • Works but leaves a lot to be desired
This works and is cheap so it has that going for it. Depending on the usage, it may not work for everyone. One major issue is the clamp base is also where the rack attaches to the vehicle crossbar. This requires there to be a large length of the rack sticking forward of the crossbar. On true roof racks, this may not be an issue, but for pickup beds or any situation with a limited amount of space, it may make the rack completely unusable. We barely got it to work on a pickup bed rack even with the bike facing backwards. Another issues is that this isn't long enough for all bikes. Newer geometry bikes may be fine but even some older 26in wheeled mountain bike frames had one wheel partly off the rack no matter what we did. One of these was an xs size frame as well. Last and main issue, it that it's just not super sturdy. The metal is very light on the wheel tray and the tubing. The clamp will also come apart when not in use if not locked / clamped, luckily it keeps falling in my pickup bed but make sure to lock it or get a piece of PVC or something to clamp when it's not in use. I would also not trust the included straps, they are practically shoelaces. ... show more

  • 2.5 Stars. Wrong bolt. Poor design.
This works for smaller bikes and I only trust it on my heavy duty truck bed rails. The metal is very flimsy, but when used on the 3" rails it becomes steady enough for bikes with smaller wheelbase. Would NOT trust an adult bike on this and would NOT use it with other cheaply made rail systems. One of the bolts that came with it was the completely wrong bolt (shown in picture) but it didn't matter because I had to modify the installation. You'll notice in the pictures that the arm bracket has bolts under it to secure in place. When this is placed on the rails per the instructions the bolts prevent the rack from seating. You'll notice another picture where the arm mounting place is modified and only 1 bolt used. This works and is sturdy but only on good rail systems. ... show more
