It is great for carrying boxes and things like that but I wouldn't recommend carrying bicycles. It is 20 inches front to back, 60 inches left to right and has a 6 inch rail. Can't imagine how you would steady bikes in it without an attachment that would stabilize them.

Two or three for sure but maybe four stacked correctly. It does swing just a bit so you will have to secure them correcgtly.

Not really designed for bicycles, but could easily accommodate 3 bikes properly tied down. Very well constructed and glad i purchased it.

I believe the spec weight is 30 pounds per bike. That said, I have the 4 bike carrier and I stood on the base coming out of the hitch sans bikes with no issues (250 lbs); this thing is pretty sturdy.

The bike carrier comes with multiple attachments to accommodate for off-center placement and different size spare tires. It all seems very sturdy and secure. I have had the carrier for 3 months.

It's pretty heavy. But its very sturdy. Doesn't shake at all, unless of course your on a bumpy road. its possible to mount only one of the carriers but you would have about a foot of the rack protruding plus it you wouldn't be saving that much weight. this is the best bike rack or there.

most definately, will hold as many bikes as you can put on.I install the one that is rated a 2500 pounds and I pull a ATV behind my camper... I reinforced my 4" bumper with some angle iron, just to be extra careful.you wont have to do that if your just hauling bicycles.make sure you pick the right one... they come with 2" and 4" receivers

They do partially. But it is more like a cargo tray. If you plan to transport bicycles I deffinetely recommend bicycle carrier.

This really isn't designed to carry bikes. It could be easily modified to do so since it has such high weight carry capabilities. I would advise to consider a Thule or Yakima bike carrier to really carry the bikes safely and without damage (to the bikes or vehicle).

When I have used the carrier it had ample space to carry two adult bikes, a kid's bike, and another smaller bike with training wheels. I would think it is wide enough to accomodate your needs.

This carrier is huge, I haven't put clubs up there, personally, but you should easily fit two sets of clubs and might be able to fit up to four sets

It will be very uncomfotable to load the bikes. Technicali i dont see a problem if you have space on your rack but very unconvenient and i strongly dont reccomand

It can maybe hold 4, really depends on the size of the kid bicycles. If we are talking tricycles, probably, small sized two wheeled bikes, probably not. Look at the dimensions for depth, and then see if you can get your bikes to squish together given the dimensions in an imaginary area around your domicile.

Only two bikes will fit on this if you have the peddles rotated in the proper orientation when mounted on a wall. I presume if you have this mounted on a beam away from the wall, so there's more room for the tires/handlebars, you might be able to get 3 on there.

If you can lift four bikes it is quite easy. Odd shaped bikes or kiddie bikes may present a problem. The tube adapter can be important for some bikes.

I would contact the company to be certain, but we load really beefy kids bikes on there with no problem. Just make sure your hitch is rated for the very heavy Swagman PLUS your very heavy bikes. ;)

I dont think so. It doesnt seem to be long enough (left to right) or wide enough depth (front t.o back) to hold 4 bikes. I think mostly due to the pedals & stuff gtting tangled. You wouldnt be able to neatly stack them next to each other.

I bought one a year ago. I have had 4 bikes on it. What you do is load two bikes, each bike facing a different direction, then you put the second rack on, but not all the way in until you load the 3rd. bike on. Tighten down the thumb screw then load the 4th. bike. It works for me.

Not sure about bike carriers. I am using mine with Malone Kayak carriers and it works fine, just need to make sure they are tighten down well.
