This 2-bike rack is perfect for carrying electric bikes and bikes with carbon frames or custom paint jobs. Ratcheting arms grip your bikes' front wheels - no frame contact. Tilts with bikes loaded for cargo area access.

Specs:
Note: May interfere with bikes with front fenders.
The Curt platform rack has ratcheting hooks that grab your bikes firmly by the front wheel, so it won't scratch or scuff the paint. To load a bike, simply place your front wheel in the cradle, rotate the arm up and over the wheel, and press down firmly on the ratcheting hook. To unload your bike, press the button on the upright arm to release the ratcheting hook, and slide the hook up.
The wheel trays have cradles with ratcheting straps to secure your rear wheel to the rack. The cradles slide along the tray to accommodate bikes with a variety of wheelbases. To secure your wheel, run the strap over the rim and back down through the strap buckle and pull tight. To remove your bike, press the quick-release button on the buckle and undo the strap.
The rack tilts down with your bikes loaded. So, whether you're at the trail or the grocery store, you don't have to remove your bikes to access your cargo area. It also folds up when not in use. This leaves a smaller footprint, so you can keep the rack on your vehicle to park in your garage. And if you want to remove it, it doesn't take up as much space to store it.
To make tilting and folding easier, the Stage 2's release lever is mounted on the front of the rack. This means you won't have to reach through or around your bikes with one hand to reach the lever, while supporting the rack's weight with the other, when lowering the rack. Instead, you'll be able to hold the rack with both hands the entire time.
The rack quickly installs in your hitch receiver, without the need for tools. Just slide the shank into your hitch and turn the knob until snug. Turning the knob deploys an anti-rattle wedge in the shank to help take play out of the hitch connection.
The rack includes locks to secure your bikes to the rack and the rack to your vehicle. Integrated cable locks thread around your bikes' frames and insert into the lock at the top of each arm. The cables store inside the arms when not in use. The lock on the hand knob secures the rack to your vehicle. The hand knob will spin freely when locked so a would-be thief can't operate it. The locks are keyed alike, so you only need to use 1 key.

This 2-bike rack is perfect for carrying electric bikes and bikes with carbon frames or custom paint jobs. Ratcheting arms grip your bikes' front wheels - no frame contact. Tilts with bikes loaded for cargo area access.Awesome rack. We use it for our two Aventon Adventure 2 eBikes. No wobble. Excellent quality, very heavy duty.
Kimberly D. at etrailer was incredible
This is an excellent bike rack for heavy ebikes. We bought two ebikes about 18 months ago and my old bike rack couldn't handle the weight of the ebikes. This rack is extremely strong and sturdy. It's probably a bit too much for just regular bikes as it is quite heavy and moving it around in the garage isn't easy. But it's well worth it for heavy ebikes. I strongly recommend this bike rack!
Simple assembly, easy to use, extremely effective and strong design. We LOVE it!

It has been one year since our purchase, we used the rack during the warm months in NC. The rack is easy to use and it is just the right size. Makes bike transport a breeze. Still loving it.
Overall, a great, heavy duty rack with good weight capacity. At about 8 months the trigger mechanism broke but CURT honored the 1 year warranty and sent a new mechanism. In the last year, this rack has hauled e bikes all over the United States and provides a stable, lockable platform for bikes of all sizes. I am very satisfied.
I found this ebike carrier very reliable, well built and very easy to install and to load bikes. I have a fat tire ebike and it works extremely well for my bike. I would recommend this carrier to anyone.
Customer support were very helpful in resolving a minor part issue.
Great addition to loading the SUP boards and now adding the e-bike platform to extend the day trips! Extra weight and 4"tire rack is an industry must! Easy to install and set up. Plenty of room for the tail gate access!
We haul 2 electric bikes with fat tires. They fit on the rack perfectly. Very sturdy rack; anti rattle feature prevents rack from wiggling & bouncing in the receiver - this is a great feature; bike tie downs are very effective & simple to use; tilting & stowage is a great feature. We highly recommend this bike rack.

Still using the Curt bike rack & working perfectly. Great product.
We bought two e-bikes and needed a bike rack that could handle them. Right from the beginning I was impressed with etrailer. Great product description, great videos and prices were competitive with other companies. We purchased the Curt rack on 9/6/23 and the delivery date was scheduled for 9/11/23. We were pleasantly surprised when the rack arrived on 9/9/23. We assembled it today and plan on using it next weekend. Assembly was easy.
The bike rack came as the day it was projected. The assembly was easy and the rack appears to be more than satisfactory. I do intend to add another ratchet strap for added stability as I travel the interstate speeds.
What great rack, solid and easy to load my e- mtn bike! Price and quality, top notch!!! Very please with my purchase!
Awesome rack - very easy to assemble. I like the security features like the locking cables and locking hitch connection. Looks like a really sturdy rack for our e-bikes. Quick shipping - I’ve ordered several items from e-trailer, and always had great service.
Very good e-bike rack platform I had to add a ramp as I could not mount the e-bikes alone ( e-bikes were 64lbs each)
This heavy duty bike rack is great. Holds my two 60 pound E bikes. That’s a total of 120 pounds. No problem at all. Very sturdy. Not to mention etrailer sent this out immediately.tracking was superb.delivery was perfect. Thanks etrailer for a very good.experience.
Nice design and well made
Great bike rack put together under an hour.. only wish the arms were easier to adjust.
Great product! Made extremely well and everything was thought out to make bike carrying and loading are a breeze.

Exceptionally well, paint is as good as the day I unboxed it and the bike rack showing no sign of flaws, I am happy to say.
unit was easy to assemble. Looks and feels like a well-built unit. I haven't used it yet as it is raining at the present time. Hopefully I will get a chance in the next day or so.
The rack was delivered a couple of days early and it works great.
Well engineered! Easy to assembled and works very well our e-bikes.
With the great help I received I decided to purchase the curt ebike rack. The rack arrived 2 days early! What service! Very easy to assemble, extra heavy duty construction, and works perfectly. I would highly recommend etrailer and Curt products.
I have ordered several different things from etrailer and they have always been on top of their game
So far so good. Heavy duty , easy to assemble, Can't wait to try it.
A year later and it still looks new. This is easy to get on and off the car and the bikes are easy to load and unload. Highly Recommend!
Heavy duty.
Used it for the first trip this week. Had a nine-hour drive with an e-bike and a Trek. Held the bikes very well and able to put the bikes on in a couple of minutes. Definitely recommend.
