Can the Swagman XC Hold Fat Bikes on a 2011 Kia Sorento with 1-1/4 Inch Trailer Hitch

Question:

How well can I expect this rack to perform on a 2011 Kia sorrento with a draw title 1 1/4 inch hitch?? I have been looking at much more expensive racks, Swagman, in fact, but they do not tilt, they are fixed and cost almost twice as much. Thanks.

To be clear the Swagman XC # S64650 also does not tilt. With that said this is one of the highest rated bike racks. Out of the over 400 reviews it has a near perfect score. So that is saying something.

As it comes it is not designed for fat bike tires but you could add wheel hoops # S64674 and they will accommodate tires up to 5 inches wide. Adding these will be good for 1 bike so if you have 2 fat bikes you would need 2 sets total.
