Will Swagman 2 Bike Carrier # S64670 Fold Easily
Question:
Will this rack fold flat, including the part that attaches to the receiver hitch? If not, is it easy to remove that part ideally without using tools?

Expert Reply:
The Swagman 2 Bike Carrier # S64670 will fold flat when attached to the hitch receiver of your vehicle when the bikes have been removed. The carrier will fold into a single, vertical unit and can be moved down to one side or the other; however, the shank of the product is not removable. I have included a link to a video review of this item and instructions for the proper installation of the carrier.
I also recommend the Swagman Locking Anti-Rattle Threaded Hitch Pin # S64029, a 1/2 inch locking hitch for a 1-1/4 inch or a 1/1/4 inch and 2 inch Swagman carrier. Using anti-wobble technology, the threaded pin pulls the receiver bar tight to one side of the hitch, preventing movement during travel. I have included a link to a video review of this item.
