Will the Swagman XP Work With the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk
Question:
Would a Swagman XP - Folding 5 Bike Rack for 2inch Trailer Hitches, Item # S64970, work with this A-frame mount? The Swagman XP would only hold 2 bikes and no more. Im concerned about the weight on the CC-275.

Expert Reply:
The Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk Trailer-Mounted Bike Rack Carrier part # CC-275 has a weight capacity of 100 lbs. The Swagman XP part # S64970 weighs about 45 lbs therefore you have 55 lbs left over for your two bikes. However, the Swagman XP is not rated for use on a trailer so I cannot recommend this. Instead, I recommend the 2 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack part # 63120 which only weighs 25 lbs so that then leaves you with 66 lbs for your two bikes. The 2 Bike Hitch Mounted Folding Rack cannot carry more than 66 lbs.
The other option you have is the Jack-It 2 Bike Rack for A-Frame Trailers part # LC429756 which mounts via the jack tube hardware. The weight of the Stromberg Carlson Bike Bunk or Jack-It 2 Bike Rack would not have an effect on your trailer's tongue.
