Not sure what you are asking. The lock comes with two different sized bars to fit the usual-sized inserts. All you have to do is determine the size of the insert for your hitch.

I know you can purchase an adapter that will allow a 2inch hitch to be attached to a 1-1/4" receiver. However, I believe that with a four bike hitch, you need to have a 2 inch receiver type hitch for strength. These hitches are heavy without any bikes. Four bikes just adds another 100 plus pounds to the hitch and all this weight is hanging way out. You could go to the swagman website or to ORS racks direct and ask this them this question to confirm my answer.

it fit my bike hitch-i have the 2" truck hitch so i need to use the L-metal adapter brackets the bike hitch comes with along with the allen bolt provided with the bike rack hitch, also i can use the smaller pin that comes with the lock but it lets the bike rack wobble a bit with the adapters - reason i use the allen bolt the bike hitch came with (my bike hitch = Reese Carry Power SportWing Hitch Mount Bike Carrier, 2 Bikes)

not this one, this will fit into the existing 2" and convert to an 2" again. It's like having an extended 2" tube to fit a bike rack that uses 2" fitting.

No you will need to get a hitch adapter, the best one i found is through uhaul that goes from 1 1/4 to 2, you will need to get the short adapter because a type 1 hitch has stoppers to prevent you from using a larger hitch adapter.

No, the model that I had purchased was for a 2" receiver. I have a 2" to 1 1/4" adapter which works nicely.

I am not sure what your pn looks like. our pin screws into rack whenit is the receiver. great bike rack.

"Yes", the rack ships with a two inch adapter so it will work in a 2inch receiver. If you have a 1.25 receiver, you won't need the adapter. Hope this helps.

There is an adapter with the rack for the 1.25 inch tow hitch. I have a bigger hitch. With my hitch I had trouble getting the rack tight. It seems to me that this would be tougher to do with the smaller hitch size. I was very fussy about having the rack tight with the hitch and used some rubber shim. That might not be necessary but it made me feel better.

I'm not sure what you're asking. This is a rack for 2 bicycles. Please rephrase your question & I'll see if I can answer it. Thanks. Steve

If your truck is like mine that came with a 2.5" receiver, there is a sleeve that can be purchased from many places, that will allow you to use the 2" shank with a 2.5" receiver. Works well, but a little noisy sometimes. Rattles a bit.

This product should work better on a 1 1/4 hitch rather than a 2" hitch with the adapter. There would be less flex and it is a sturdier connection. I had 2". Just make sure the screws that hold the safety latch are tight.

the extra length of the adapter from 1/14" to 2" is at least 9" long and will reduce the weight the receiver can handle since it is leveraged out. You will also have more play in the receiver parts so you will need to strap down your bike to the car. I suggest you use a cross pattern with a tie down from the top right of the vehicle to the middle left of the motorcycle and top left of the vehicle to the middle right of the bike. This will stabilize the entire situation. I have also ran into problems with the motorcycle coming of the rail while driving over RR tracks etc. I tie down the tires under the rack to stop this. Works very well.

Let me start by saying that I don't KNOW for sure. I have the two bike XC that fits the 2" receiver. In looking at the Swagman website, it APPEARS that the difference is in the brackets that cradle the bike's tires. Go there and check it out. I have hauled two bikes in my XC in the receiver on my truck and in the receiver I had added to the rear of my 32' bumper pull trailer and it has worked well for both applications. I do use a custom-made riser when using the rack on my trailer. The riser raises the bike rack up about 8" higher than the bumper on the trailer and keeps both bikes and rack from scraping on the road surface when there is a radical change in road elevation. For example, when pulling the truck and trailer into or out of a sloped driveway or encountering city streets with substantial dips for surface storm drains, etc. Once the mounting brackets are positioned for a specific bike, it's very easy to place the bike on the rack and secure it for travel and just as easy to remove it for use. Maybe a bit too easy to remove! I always use a cable lock to secure the bike to the rack and I upgraded the pin that holds the rack to the receiver to the locking version. Those steps don't discourage a dedicated thief, but they work well for a casual grab and go, crime of opportunity type of thief. I hope that helps.

The bike rack I received works with 1.25" and 2" hitches. It has an adapter to make it fit the larger 2" receiver. The adapter came installed on the rack. You take the adapter off if you only have 1.25" receiver. I do believe a Class 1 hitch is a 1.25", so if that is correct, you should be fine. Just make sure you have a 1.25" or 2" before you purchase, because if your receiver is not one of those two sizes, it won't work. Hope this helps. Happy riding! P.S. I love this rack. Great value for the dollar and when you screw down the bolt, it keeps everything from swaying and wobbling. Also, make sure you have a 19MM wrench or socket laying around for the anti sway bolt, as you will need it. The bike rack I received works with 1.25" and 2" hitches.

I'm not that familiar with RV hitch configurations. If you have a 1 1/4" hitch receiver or an adapter for a 2" to make it 1 1/4", I don't see that there would be a problem.

Yes it does fit 1 1/4 receiver and should clear your tire..........it is easy to use.
