XTC2 Hitch Mount Bike Rack

Founders Jim and Jan Morris had the philosophy to create a better way to transport bikes back in the early 90s, which led to the birth of Swagman. As one of the pioneers in the global market, Swagman designed and introduced the hitch style bike rack. From its humble beginnings in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, the company expanded its range to include innovative designs for the North American Bicycle, RV, and Automobile markets.

One of Swagman's standout products is the XTC Cross-Country 2-Bike Rack, specifically engineered to safely transport two bikes on your car's hitch without any risk of damage. The platform-style rack comes with a built-in anti-wobble device that securely attaches to 2 or 1.25-inch hitches. Loading the bikes is a breeze - place them on the wheel platforms, secure the wheels with integrated straps, and lock the grip arms over the frames. The rack can be adjusted to fit bikes with 20 to 29-inch wheels and various frame types, all while protecting the bike finishes with its soft frame-friendly coating.

Compared to roof-mounted racks that require removing the front wheel or cradle carriers that lack base support, the XTC Cross-Country offers a hassle-free solution for bike transportation. The rack grants easy access to your car's trunk, even when fully loaded, and folds up for convenient storage when not in use. Additionally, the center arm can be folded down to access the rear of the vehicle without removing the rack. Backed by a limited lifetime warranty, the XTC Cross-Country ensures durability and reliability for years to come.

For added security, consider purchasing the optional locking hitch pin and security cable, available separately. Assembling the XTC2 is a quick task with provided instructions, allowing you to hit the road with your bikes in no time. With a weight capacity of 35 lbs. per bike, the rack is compatible with Class 2 or higher, 1-1/4" and 2" hitch receivers, accommodating most frame sizes and styles ranging from 12" to 29" tire sizes.

In conclusion, the XTC Cross-Country 2-Bike Rack by Swagman combines ease of use, space-saving storage, worry-free security, and versatility, making it the ideal choice for transporting bikes on your outdoor adventures.
