Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.
This hitch-mounted bike rack lets you securely transport up to 4 bikes on the back of your vehicle. The anti-sway cradles securely hold your bikes during transport. Plus, the rack tilts away from your vehicle for easy access to your vehicle's rear cargo area. This bike rack can be used with both 1-1/4" (Class II only) and 2" hitch receivers and comes with a stabilizer strap for added support.
Dual Folding Arms
This rack's sturdy dual arms provide excellent support for your bikes. When you're not carrying bikes, simply remove the tethered bail pin to fold the arms down. This folding design allows you to leave the carrier mounted on your vehicle when it's not in use.
Anti-Sway Cradles
Anti-sway cradles with rubber straps help to hold your bikes securely on the rack. The straps secure each bike frame to the cradles in 3 spots - 2 on the top tube and 1 on the downtube - to help prevent bike-to-bike and bike-to-car contact. And the cradles rotate to grab your bike frames at optimal angles. Grooves in the cradles keep your brake lines from getting twisted or pinched.
Tilting Mast for Easy Access to Cargo Area
Getting into your rear cargo area is easy, even if the bike rack is loaded. Remove the pin and clip that hold the rack in the upright position. Then tilt the rack away from the vehicle for easy access into your cargo area.
A horizontal bar built into the base of the rack keeps the mast from pivoting too far forward and holds it in place while you access your cargo area. When you're finished getting in your trunk, simply raise the mast back up and replace the pin and clip.
Anti-Wobble Hitch Pin and Adapter Sleeve
The included threaded hitch pin helps to keep the rack from moving and rattling around inside of your vehicle's hitch by pulling the shank tight to the side of the receiver.
The included adapter sleeve lets you use this bike in a 1-1/4" or a 2" hitch receiver. To install the 2" adapter sleeve, simply bolt it to the bike rack's shank using the included hardware.
Stabilizing Strap Provides Support
The included stablizing strap provides added support by anchoring the rack to your vehicle. This helps to reduce unwanted movement of the rack while you drive. It also helps to take the load off your hitch, which is why the strap is required for use with Curt 1-1/4" (Class I and Class II) and some 2" (Class III) trailer hitches. The strap attaches to the upper center section of the bike rack, in between the dual arms, and to the trunk or rear window of your vehicle. The strap easily cinches tight to provide secure support while the rack is in use.
A built-in rung on the back of the upright mast provides an anchor point for a wheel and handlebar support strap or cable lock (each sold separately) to keep your bikes' handlebars and wheels from moving during transport. Simply thread the strap through the rung and through your bikes' wheels to immobilize them. You can also use a cable lock in conjunction with the strap to secure your bikes to the rack.

Nice bike rack ! Saddles are well made and none of the ears that hold the straps in place have broken like they have with other brands I've owned.
It came with 1 strap for each saddle and the straps seem just a tad stretchy. I looked on line and found that Home Depot has a good price for the straps so I now have 2 straps on each saddle.
I've got it on a 1&1/4 hitch, but it came with an adapter for a 2 inch.
It holds 3 road bikes. I used it all the time.
Comments
still holding up very well. None of the saddle ears of broken. I did have a problem with the saddles slipping back on the arms so I bought some radiator clamps and locked them in place.

Order the curt 4 bike hitch rack and have not tried it yet. The ordering process was simple and I also used the toll to determine which hitch and rack capacity’s would fit my vehicle. Outstanding! Once ordered, I was told who picked and shipped the product and tracking information motion was provided. The shipping was fast and free. I would highly recommended etrailer for your towing and carrying needs.Their customer service, knowledge, shipping and price are the Best. Highly recommended!
Comments
I would surely buy this again after using for a year! Great product.

I havent used it yet. But I will definitely buy from eTrailer.com again! Great Customer Service. I like getting the emails from 'George' and 'Carol'
Comments
I now use this rack at least two times a week. I keep it in the back of my SUV and installremove so that it wont get stolen. Thanks Seattle. I am using it in a 2in receiver, so it is not tight. This could be fixed, but I remove and install it fairly often. So thats fine.

Received the bike rack in about 3 days! Assembled and had it on the car in less than 30 min. Very sturdy and I love that it came with the 2inch adapter. Our last bike rack did not fold down. This one does. Great feature so I don’t have to remove it

Everything about the hitch itself is as-advertised. Installation was straightforward, and the end result looks great on the back of the car (2015 Passat). It is tucked in and not intrusive. The 4-bike rack, based on our bikes, does not really hold 4 bikes at a time. It has straps for 4 bikes, and they adjust, but with adult size bikes, it unfortunately is not enough room. I could imagine them working if a couple of the bikes were small child size, but our youngest is now over 5 feet tall, so we are all on adult size bikes. Also the bike rack when installed drags the pavement backing out of our driveway, which is not steep, even when not loaded with the bikes. The bottom of the bike rack should angle up from where it inserts into the hitch more steeply, instead of coming out square from the hitch as far as it needs to to clear the bumper. The rack does seem to hold 3 bikes securely, though, and it tips out of the way while installed on the car to allow for trunk access, so while not perfect, is reasonably useable.
Comments
I believe that if the bike rack curved up from where it attaches to the hitch, it would solve the problem of scraping on drivewayssloped entrances. The hitch by itself never hits anything, only the rack. Even with the occasional scrape, though, the rack is holding up well after a year.

Not too happy with rack. Hard to mount bikes. Rubber to hold bikes to Hard to use.
by: Tim 05/05/2020
I didn't know to pay attention to the 1 1/4" vs 2" hitch adapters. A 2" hitch would be much more stable. Needed to buy an additional tie down strap for side stability. Overall good product; weak point is the 2" hitch necked down to 1 1/4".
Comments
Its been a year now, and the bike hauler is working out well. We have taken it on some longer 100+ mile trips, and it is good with the second tie down strap for lateral stability.
Tim Z - 05/06/2021by: John07/27/2021
Poor design. Huge wedge shaped bicycle supports make it almost impossible to mount a bike to the rack. If you can get the bike to mount, when removing the wedge support will grab the brake cable and give it a good twang. Bought a replacement unit.
by: Mark P06/14/2017
Assembly was good. Directions were a little sparse and need work but got it together. Good fit on receiver hitch and is sturdy. One pin is very tight but should wear in. Have not put bikes on it yet but pleased so far.
Comments
I have been using the rack for over a year now and it works great. It is getting ready to go to the beach again and has been on many trips around town as well.
Mark P - 06/14/2018by: Paul07/16/2022
Super sturdy but SO heavy! I’ve reverted to strap-onto-hatchback-door style, much more manageable for me
by: Juli10/07/2021
MADE IN CHINA!!!! I researched for days to find a bike rack not made in China. Curt advertised their products were made in USA! False advertising! China has destroyed our economy and lifestyle...NO ONE should sell products from China in this country! I'm beyond livid!!
Comments
I understand your frustration. Some Curt products are USA made but their bike racks are not. This 4 bike rack is our most affordable one that is indeed made in the USA if you are still looking for one: Item # TH934XTR

The shipment came to us quickly. I found that assembling the product was fairly easy (using a few of my own tools) and the components were shipped in good condition We just used our rack for the first time this weekend on a long interstate trip to a metro area, for a long weekend. Weather dictated that our bikes ended up staying on the rack arms most of the time, through all kinds of road travel and rainy conditions; it held up well while doing a pretty fair job of protecting the bicycles. There was a little "bounce play" of the bikes with each other while traveling at high speeds, but the overall performance of the rack was pretty good for a product at this price-point. I would recommend it to others.
by: Kelly06/15/2020
The bike rack can accommodate 4 full bikes. We use this for BMX bikes so I am not sure if larger bikes would fit. With 4 bmx, it is maxed out. It is very sturdy and fits on my chevy cruze nice. I am still able to open the trunk when bikes are on the rack.
The down side is that the rubber securements do not last long. With in a month of usage several times a week the rubber tore on a few. I contacted the mfg directly and they sent me a dozen out without argument - great customer service. I keep them in my trunk so if one gets worn I can replace it on the fly. All in all, good product. I would purchase it again. 4 stars, just because of the strap issue.
by: David02/09/2019
Works great. Only problem I found was some of the smaller adult bikes have trouble fitting on the bars. Sorry I didn't get a rack with the bars closer together. Having said that, they do make an adapter for kids bikes that i may spring for.
by: Cy01/07/2022
Great product for a biker. Can be used for two bikes with ease, and adding two extra bikes is also very easy. The stabilizer keeps everything from moving.
by: Mark 08/25/2021
There are probably higher quality bike racks out there, but this one is a good quality for the price. It works. It is strong. IT is heavy. it accommodates 4 bikes. It pivots for hatch back and tail gate openings. it gets job done.

We have had the curt 4 bike rack for a year and it works well. It fits our Honda Pilot 2016 and is easy to install/uninstall.
by: Alyssa 07/31/2020
I have a Buick Encore 2020. I wanted a 4 bike rack. I read all the reviews on this site and others. The bike rack was easy to put together - my 15 year old and I did it. Did take some time but we managed it. It is heavy so an extra person that can lift is helpful. A Buick only allows for 1 1/4 hitch. So true to what others wrote the bike rack does sway when the bikes are on. This is a bit nerve racking. We took several test drives to try it out. Speed bumps are killer. It looks like the bike rack is going to heave the bikes over the front end of the car. If you can stomach this then you are okay. We don't plan to go off road or up hills. We just want to be able to take surface and freeways to some nice bike rides.
by: Joanna06/21/2020
Our first adventure with this or any bike rack was across the country. There was some side to side swaying, but the bikes arrived safely. They did get a little scratched when one of the holders moved, but we were able to readjust it and it hasn't moved since. For the trip back we bought a "stabilizer" piece to help and the bikes did not sway as much. The way back caused less anxiety for us. Around town I do not use the extra piece.
by: Jeffrey10/31/2017
For the price I thought it might be a little rickety but it is sufficiently sturdy and works like a champ. Easy on/easy off. Fits snug in the hitch and the clamping screw makes it nice and tight. The straps are similarly snug and heavy duty. I have only used it with 2 bikes. I've never put the 4 bike extensions on. That seems like it might be quite a bit of stress for it, but if they were light-weight bikes it would probably handle it.
by: Jennifer 12/03/2021
Bought this bike rack a year ago, and it has been very good!
by: Keith07/30/2020
More expensive then the class 3 hitch,heaver then the hitch.The bushing that convertes the hitch from class 2 to 3 is very chessey,wobbly like you'd never bealve an will not except a regular hitch pin. You can't use a locking pin!
by: Evelyn08/09/2018
The bike rack is quite wobbly when the car is driving . The straps that come with it do not adequately hold the bikes on the rack. They need to be secured with other methods to keep them on the rack. The rack is also very heavy, so you would think it wouldn’t be so wobbly, but it is.
by: Joshua 06/14/2021
This bike rack appears to be very well put together. I’ve used it a few times and it does work good. etrailer is also good to deal with.
by: Tom Osinska12/20/2020
First time buyer and the service over the phone with Korren was exceptional. I told her when I needed the items and I paid a little more but the items were on my door step exactly when she promised. The first item that I ordered was not in stock and I received a email telling me that. I called and Korren answered explained what was available, she asked if there was anything else that I needed and I explained to her that I was looking for a hitch pin and she told me that the one that was available already had one with it. The experience dealing with Korren and your company was awesome. I will definitely be recommending you folks to anyone. Thank you. I also don’t normally do these reviews but I had to with you guys. Thanks again.

- Will Curt Trailer Hitch Mount Bike Rack Fit 2009 and 2016 Subaru OutbacksThe Curt bike rack # C18030 is designed to fit 1-1/4 inch Class II hitches and 2 inch hitches. There are Class I, II, and III hitches available for the 2009 Outback and Class II and Class III hitches for the 2016 Outback. Provided that your Outbacks both have Class II or Class III trailer hitches and not an aftermarket Class I or the Subaru factory hitch then the bike rack will fit.
view full answer... - Thumbscrew on Curt Bike Rack 18030The wingnut is a thumbscrew that should have arrived already in the shank of the Curt 4 Bike Rack # C18030 and definitely not just falling out. It helps stabilize the rack and as you can see at about the 1:30 mark of the video I linked for you, is something you would need to unscrew a bit in order to allow the bike rack to tilt down.

The Curt # C18030 is a great option since it works with 1-1/4" or 2" trailer hitch receivers, and has a weight capacity of 45lbs per bike.

Curt 4 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting Item # C18030 will fit the Class III, 2 inch trailer hitch on your 2015 Toyota RAV4. I have included a link to a video review of this rack on a similar vehicle. If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I...
view full answer... - Replacement Adapter Sleeve for Curt 4 Bike Rack Part # C18030I do have an option for you but Curt does not offer the adapter sleeve on the Curt 4 Bike Rack part # C18030 separately. Instead, you could just use something like the Hitch Adapter Sleeve part # HRREDADA as the design is pretty much standard. You might need to drill into the adapter to line up with the set screws on the shank of the bike rack but they are not required.
view full answer... - Will Curt Bike Rack C18030 Fit on 2007 Toyota RAV4You would have to measure from your hitch pin hole out to the furthest point out on the rear spare of your 2007 Toyota RAV4 to determine if the # C18030 will clear it. The rack has a distance of 7-3/4 inches from the pin hole to nearest portion of the mast. If the distance you measured is less than that this rack will fit. When we installed the Curt hitch part # C13149 on a 2007 RAV4 the measured distance was 6 inches so there is a very good chance the rack would work for you.

Even if a higher-capacity rack fits the hitch, such as the Curt # C18030, you are still limited by the Class I hitch to only two bikes.

I really like this hitch as it has a concealed crosstube which means you'll only see the hitch opening down below the bumper of the hitch.
