Both bike racks are similar designs made by different companies. I would recommend the Swagman part # S64650 over the Curt # C18084 though as it is a bike rack we have been selling a while now and it is just very reliable and a great bike rack at that price point. The Curt rack isn't bad, but it's not any better than the Swagman and weighs almost 20 lbs more so it wouldn't be what I would go with.
This would work well with the Curt hitch part # C11265.
Curt requires the use of their stabilizer strap part # 18050 when using their hitch to carry a non-supported load like a bike rack. I attached a review video for you to check for the strap as well.
