Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Curt 18085 Secure Locking Tray-Style Bike Rack Mount, 2 Bikes, Fits 1-1/4, 2-Inch Receiver, Black by Michael Radhakrishnan

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Solid luggage rack, easy to use, cheaper than Thule/Yakima

Just got this rack which seems to fix the shortcomings of the 18084 rack. The tailgate can be opened with the trunk folded up without any problems. Easy to apply, fold, remove. Use it with a full suspension Santa Cruz Blur and a Specialized Hardtail. The Santa Cruz wheel had to be loaded first (closer to the car) in order for the second to fit. However, this is not a problem. firmly fixed in the CURT coupling. I have yet to figure out how to improve this as the bikes will bounce up and down when going over bumps etc.

Pros
  • STANDARD FIT. Designed to conveniently transport your bikes, this bike rack hitch comes with a stem and adapter that will fit almost any 1-1/4" or 2" hitch receiver. It holds up to 2 bikes and 90 lbs.
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
