RV Approved 4 Bike RV Bumper Mount Rack – U-Bolt Mounted Carrier for Travel Trailers, 5th Wheels and RVs

This is not a paid advertisement. I researched several bike racks and purchased this one after seeing it mounted to another travel trailer. I am happy to recommend this bike rack. We just completed a 2900 mile journey with four bikes on the rack, and as full-time RV'ers it will get used constantly. I have the bike rack attached to the 4" bumper on my travel trailer, and it is extremely sturdy. I was looking for something that I felt safe carrying 4 bikes on for many years and this really fit the bill. It is well built and allows proper spacing for the bikes to be secured well. The rack is attached securely at multiple points on the bumper, to distribute the load. We are carrying 3 adult bikes and 1 16" child bike, but I would have no problem carrying 4 adult bikes. The only drawback to this rack is that all the bikes should have similar wheelbases. The rack holds the bikes securely by allowing the wheels to settle into wheel wells. You set the distance between the racks based on the wheelbase of your bike. If another bike has a shorter or longer wheelbase only one wheel will fit securely in the wheel well. We dealt with this by putting the smallest bike in the inside position (closest to the trailer) and strapping it in very well, but only the rear wheel is in the wheel well, with the front tire sitting on the edge of the rack. Even in this configuration, after 2900 miles none of the bikes had moved at all. Visit MovingToAmerica(dot)me to see video and photos of this bike rack in action.

I just have one bike and had a rack which hung on my ladder. Due to constant bouncing it broke my ladder and I decided to get a bumper mount rack. I have a center mounted spare tire and attached the two halves of this rack on each side of my tire and it fits my 26in bike fine. Due to my pedals sticking out, I can't use the first bike rail because the pedal hits the spare tire but middle rail works fine. The middle rail also has one of the vertical support stands on which I can lean my bike rear wheel frame against. With a little padding to protect my frame and a couple of tie-downs my bike is locked into place and rides great. The rack is extremely sturdy and fits the standard bumper perfect. Just make sure your bumper is designed to be able to carry the weight.

Amazing product. Works as advertised. You won't be disappointed. Came fast! Well made! Heavy duty! Install was easy!

Went together well, directions were good, I needed a second set of hands to hold pieces while I tightened bolts. Very sturdy have driven over 2k miles and it hasn't moved. Could do away with some holes where nothing goes that just collect water and rust. I got it to hold my wifes tricycle and it does so, however the the slots for the tires are made wider than most normal.bikes, also it only holds the trike, not my other bikes but I'm ok with that

While on vacation camping at the beach, my family purchased 3 bicycles and wasn't sure how we were going to transport them home. This rack is durable, sturdy and dependable. We have only used it for bicycles and I'm not sure I would recommend it being used for any other purposes. I would add a little bit to the design and place a or some sort of other brace to prevent bicycles or the handles from bouncing into the back of your camper during transport or rubbing the back of it. It would also be helpful when securing the bicycles with ratchet straps. Another thing that I would do to modify the rack is to have a least 1 or 2 spots adjustable to the bicycle tire size. My son has a fat tire bicycle and it was a little difficult to secure onto the rack. We use a cut foam pool noodle to prevent any mishaps with the bikes rubbing against each other or the camper because like the camper will sometimes bounce during transit so will anything attached to it. Even though I mentioned a couple design improvements I would definitely purchase this again if needed and we also recommend it to our fellow camping friends. Overall we are very satisfied with this rack. It definitely gets the job done.

Loved the simple and compact design. Bikes can be placed easily. When trying to attach to our 4" bumper it kept moving easily when pushing up and down like it will on the road. Would be great for 4.5" bumpers. My sons MTB does not fit between the slots and only would fit once we let most of the air out. My road bike would almost sit on the rim instead of tire and I am concerned it will get damaged. For the right bikes and bumper this will be a great option.

I have used this rack for 8 months now, and I am nothing but impressed with it. As some other reviews stated, it did not fit right with my RV, but that is because my bumper is very close to the RV. My modification was to put the flat bars on top and the square tubes on the bottom. I have a very sturdy bumper, so I have had no problems with the rack bending or distorting my bumper. Please check your bumper before purchasing to make sure that it can handle something being cantilevered 3 feet out. The rack is strong enough that I can stand on it with no movement whatsoever. I am able to carry 2 adult bikes and 2 children's bikes very easily. I purchased some bungee cords to attach the bikes and they work perfectly. With so many bars on the rack, there are plenty of attachment points. I have a 4" bumper on my RV, and it fit perfectly. I have recommended this product to other RVing friends. 8,000+ miles and still going strong.

We purchased this rack after purchasing a ladder style bike rack for our Travel Trailer. The ladder on the back of the camper is to close to the side to use a ladder rack so we went with this bumper mounted rack. I e-mailed Swagman and asked if this rack would work with a bumper mounted spare tire and they assured me that it would. It does but, you have to do a lot of adjusting and you will get your bike's on. This is a four bike rack but, with the spare tire you can only get two adult size bikes on it. The rack is very sturdy and assembly is a breeze. We only carry two bike's so this worked ok for us. We will use this until something better comes along.

Easy to install and very sturdy. Given the location of my spare tire on the rear bumper I was only able to fit 3 bikes on this mount but that wasn't a problem because I put the 2 smaller bikes on the rear of my vehicle on a separate mount. I was a bit worried travelling for the first time as the bikes are not viewable while travelling. However, I had them strapped down with ratchet straps and I had no issues whatsoever. With the bikes removed, the carrier acts as a handy table for my Traeger smoker!

Placed on the back of my travel trailer 5-6 years ago and is still securely attached. Holds 4 adult bicycles.

Good sturdy bike rack however realistically only holds 3 bikes as the first slot allows bike to rub up against RV wall causing damage. I recommend skipping the closest holder to avoid this problem

It works as per the description. You need to be sure your bumper is rated to carry that load especially on bumpy roads.

This bike rack was easy to install, is made of durable quality metal and holds 4 full size bikes easily. It also arrived before the expected delivery date.
