Hi, everyone. It's Evangeline. And today, we're taking a look at the replacement shim, knob, and bolt for your Swagman XTC series bike rack. We have a bunch of replacement parts here at etrailer. And this is gonna be the replacement shim, knob, and bolt for your wheel cradles. It does not include your wheel cradle.
So, if this is the part that's broken, you can find that as a separate replacement part. This is just gonna be for the knob. And in this video, I'll show you how to replace it. The shims fit underneath your wheel cradle. So, there's a little groove or track there and you have to slide them through, and then it snaps into place.
So, there's two of those shims. And then you have a carriage bolt. So, that's going to fit into the square side. So, there's gonna be a round side and a square side. Get that carriage bolt and fit that right through.
And now, you're ready to put this on your bike rack. So once you've slid through on your bike rack, just slide it to where you want your wheelbase to be. Go ahead and get that replacement knob, thread that onto that bolt. Make sure to press from below since it is a carriage bolt until it is secure on the bike rack. So, this is gonna work for your Swagman XTC series as well as your Swagman E-Spec bike rack.
Those have in common the tray size or I guess the shank of the cradle size of an inch and an eighth of an inch square. So, if your bike rack has that measurement, this will probably work with that. But you can also check out our product page for an updated list of bike racks this is a replacement part for. So, for those other replacement parts, whether it's the shank, or this strap, or some pins, you can find those here at etrailer.com. But right here, right now, this was a look at the replacement shims, knob, and a bolt for your Swagman XTC Series bike racks..

Still holding up. Some are perfect, some require force to tighten, meaning require the use of pliers. Not made equal. I wanted to see a quick-release skewer.
I'm not knocking it off. I love my Swagman bike carrier it does the job it was made for but some parts can be improved.
It’s good to know that these easily damaged individual detail parts are available in lieu of of more robust design
