What is Weight Capacity of Swagman Trailhead Bike Rack
Question:
For the Swagman BULK 4 bike carrier that can be used on the back of a camper trailer, this is what is listed in the specs: Carrying capacity: 4 bikes Weight capacity: 100 lbs 35 lbs Per bike Is this a typo? Is the Weight capacity wrong or is it 25 lbs per bike? Thanks,

Helpful Expert Reply:
The capacity of the Swagman Trailhead 4-Bike Rack # S63381 is a little confusing but basically the bike rack itself has a 100 lb overall capacity but the frame cradles (the brackets with the straps that hold the bikes) each have a capacity of 35 lbs. So the capacity is accurate as listed but could be listed better.
