    Yakimaw backswing hitch swing rack adaptor

    It's awesome, easy to install and will adapt to most any bike rack model. Only one issue with it and I resolved the problem myself, it was the spring loaded safety pin that wasn't in the hole very far, so I bent the bracket where it is welded onto the hitch, it now is fully inserted into the hole.

    Very useful

    I like this adapter. It is very useful for getting into the back of the car. Seems very sturdy when loaded with bikes.
