Fat-Bike Bike Rack Recommendation for a Bike with 3.45 inch Tires
Question:
I have 26 inch tires that are 3.45 inches in width. Will the Highland SportWing 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4inch and 2inch Hitches - Aluminum accomodate the fat tire requirement? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
I have a bike rack I can recommend that will work with your fat bike but the Swagman XTC2 bike rack # S64670 that you referenced would not work with your size tires.
Instead, I would recommend the Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack for Fat Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # C18085-FB. This rack is specifically designed for fat bikes and will accommodate tires that are up to 4.88 inches in width.
