Today on our 2012 Honda Civic well be test fitting the Swagman XTC2 two bike carrier
part #: S64670. To begin our installation well simply slide the bike rack shank into
the hitch, well line up the hitch pinhole and install and tighten down our anti-rattle
bolt. With the bolt tight our bike rack is secured to the vehicle. Now well go ahead
and give you a few measurements. Our ground clearance at the back of the bike rack is
13 inches and from the closest point of the bike rack to the back of the vehicle is 4
inches. Well now go ahead and unfold the bike rack platform and open our trunk.
As you can see we can gain full access to the cargo area with this bike rack. We can
then place the bike rack into the wheel loops where well bring the vertical bar up remembering
to reinstall the pin holding the bar in place. We can then bring the top bar clamp down over
the top bar of our bike securing our bike to the bike rack. Well move back down to the
wheel loops where well run the strap through the wheel and secure it on the other side.
And there you have it, our bike is loaded and were ready to hit the road.
