I am interested in getting a Swagman 2 bike rack. I have seen it on other threads here but am not sure how it works with the receiver hitch. Does it need an extension for the receiver? The pictures I have seen are not very clear.
I have a BMW X5 TV with a Curt hitch and a sway bar. I would rather not carry the bikes on the top of the TV. Cross winds are bad enough now and with bikes on the roof they would be only worse but I hate not having my bikes with me.

Hi Dave,

If you search "Swagman" in the search function, you may find a number of discussions.

I use one and love it. Pics in my sig.
