Re:FWIW Bike Rack
F. J. & Ellen
The Swagman bike rack fits around the 2 inch Reese hitch bar. It has a 2 inch sleeve that fits on the hitch bar between the receiver and the ball. It is not in way of the operation of our Reese trunion hitch since there is plenty of room between the end of the receiver and the hitch ball for the Swgman sleeve. Also, there is enough room so that the bikes do not touch the TM on turns; however, we do have to remove the bikes in the event we want to open the TM while it is still hitch to the TV.
It also has locks on it and swings down out of the way when we want to open the tailgate on our pickup. We are "sold" on this kind of bike rack.
Hope this answers your question.
