Hi, Can you please tell me how much the following racks weigh: Swagman Trailhead #s63360 Swagman Titan #S63400 Thule #TH9058? I need to make sure I can load the rack myself. Thanks,

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Thule Camber 2 # TH9058 weighs approximately 28 lbs, the Swagman Titan 2 Bike Rack # S63400 weighs approximately 33 lbs and the Swagman Trailhead 2 Bike Rack # S63360 weighs about 27 lbs.
These are each quality bike racks and should be manageable but if you are looking for a truly lightweight, easy-to-use hanging bike rack you may also want to consider the Kuat Beta which weighs 12.6 lbs. It is available for 2 inch hitches # B202-2 and 1-1/4 inch hitches # B202-114.
Additionally, please note that when using any hanging bike rack you'll need bike frame adapter bar # 64005 if your bike is dual-suspension, has a step-through frame or you want to carry a small children's bike. The bar will give those bikes a horizontal mounting point so they can be carried by the rack.
For security to lock these racks to your hitch and help protect your investment you can use the Thule Snug Tite Hitch Lock # THSTL2 with the Thule Roadway; or Swagman's Anti-Rattle Lock # S64029 for the Swagman Trailhead and Swagman Titan.
I have also added links to video reviews of each bike rack for you to take a look at.
