Expert Reply:
There are a couple of differences between the Swagman XC, part # S64650 and the XTC, part # S64670.
The XC has a shank rise of 4-inches and the distance from the center of the hitch pin to the closest wheel hoop is 10-1/2 inches and will accommodate wheels up to 3-1/2 inches wide. The maximum wheelbase is 51-1/2 inches.
The XTC has a shank rise of 3-inches and the distance form the center of the hitch pin to the closest wheel hoop is 8 inches. This carrier can accommodate wheels up to 2-1/2 inches wide and the maximum bike wheelbase for this carrier is 66-inches.
Both carriers have a weight capacity of 35-lbs per bike. I have attached a couple of links to review videos for both carriers you can check out.
