About Swagman
"Ride, paddle, explore: seek your adventure"
That philosophy was the intention of founders Jim and Jan Morris who saw an opportunity to create a better way to transport your bike back in the early 90’s. Swagman was one of the first companies worldwide to design and market a hitch style bike rack. Over the years, that small bike rack company based in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia grew to include numerous other ground breaking designs in the North American Bicycle, RV and Automobile markets.

Update:
Still using the bar on the back of our bike. Still very useful. I do want to add that after being out in the elements for almost a year (we leave the bar on our bike rack) it is rusting somewhat. Both the balls that hold the swinging mechanism shut are rusting, as well as something internally (you can see the rust when you extend the bar to fit the bike in place.) Everything still works so far, but be aware that exposure to the elements will take its toll kinda quick (or at least quicker than I would have expected.)
Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2023
The design is pretty solid. The side opening clamps get wide open and close shut with a secure, large " locking pin" that engages and secures the clamp very positively. I have a larger than average sized frame and this clamp still fit with no problem. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars , athough minor reasons, is because some steel parts likely to rust over time ( but just keep it oiled and clean) and the two halves are kept pulled together by a bungee cord, which may weaken and fail in the future BUT I trust that this likely won't happen And even if it did, the bar would still work without issue other than the inside part of the loop is not covered in nylon and could scratch the frame - that part of the clamp does not touch the frame on my bike, so not an issue for me.
I Strongly recommend this top bar adaptor !!!
I forgot to take a picture of my bike mounted, but I recently purchased a bike for my mother and I needed to use it for that bike as well and it worked equally well on her medium sized bike. I highly recommend this bar if you have a trunk mounted rack vs a hitch mounted.

I really liked the closing/locking mechanism, and the protective the rubber coating is more than sufficient and durable.

Posterior a varios robos de portabicicletas de techo de elevados precios, decidí utilizar portabicicletas Saris Bones para guardarlos después de cada uso, conveniente pues sólo tenía MTB Hardtail y Road.
Hay una curva de aprendizaje para usarlo bien, pues como mencionó alguien en su review, la primera vez pegó la rueda delantera con el primer tope (reductor de velocidad), sólo debí modificar el ángulo de los brazos de Bones para que ya no pegue.
Por lo pronto, sólo ha sido usado por menos de 1 hora en calles y avenidas de la ciudad sin problema alguno, pero sobre su estabilidad y durabilidad podré opinar en unas semanas después de un viaje por carretera y así también subir fotos.
Por otro lado, sobre su calidad-precio, he investigado y revisado que hay otras barras similares o iguales, sólo con diferentes marcas impresas y más caras, decidí por Swagman gracias al review de un usuario de Amazon de EUA.
Para MTB de Doble Suspensión, esta Barra Adaptadora es esencial para seguir utilizando el existente Bones y no gastar en un portabicileta de techo.
