How Much Does the Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack S64650 Weigh
Question:
How much does the Swagman S64650 weigh?
asked by: Colleen S
Expert Reply:
The Swagman XC 2-Bike Rack Platform Style part # S64650 weighs around 25 lbs. This is very light for a platform style bike rack but we do have one that is lighter, the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4412B which weighs 22.5 lbs.
If you just need a basic bike rack for occasional use then by all means go with the Swagman XC but if you have nice bikes and will be hauling them frequently you may want to take a look at the Saris Freedom 2 which is a much better rack overall but the price does reflect this. The 8" shank rise of the Freedom will also do a better job of avoiding ground contact when compared to the 4" shank rise of the XC.
