Carry up to four bikes -- including kids' bikes -- directly from your RV, truck, or SUV's standard 2-inch hitch receiver. The Curt 18064 is built for real-world use: it tilts down so you can open your rear hatch without unloading, folds flat for garage storage, and uses adjustable rubber cradles to protect every frame. At 180 lbs total capacity and 41 lbs rack weight, it handles family loads without drama.
Whether you're pulling into a campground and want to ride the trails, or heading out on a weekend road trip with the family, the Curt 18064 keeps all four bikes secured and scratch-free. The rack mounts into any standard 2-inch receiver hitch and locks into place with a threaded anti-wobble shank that eliminates the side-to-side sway that rattles cheaper racks loose over miles of highway.
Tapered cradle arms fit everything from adult road bikes to smaller kids' bikes without adapters or extra hardware. Adjustable rubber cradle pads grip each top tube firmly and prevent metal-on-metal contact, so paint and frames stay protected even on rough roads.
Entire rack pivots down without removing bikes, giving you full access to your RV's rear storage compartment, SUV hatch, or truck tailgate area.
Threaded bolt tightens the shank directly against the receiver walls, minimizing rack movement and bike sway on highways and rough campground roads.
Each cradle arm folds down when the rack is empty, reducing overall footprint for compact garage or basement storage between trips.
Integrated safety reflectors are mounted on the rack itself, keeping the rear of your vehicle visible to following traffic when the rack extends beyond your bumper.
The rubber-padded cradles slide along tapered arms to accommodate different frame sizes and tube diameters. Road bikes, mountain bikes, hybrids, and kids' bikes all load securely without needing frame adapters. Velcro-style hook-and-loop straps (integrated into the cradle design) wrap around the top tube to hold each bike upright and stationary.
The Curt 18064 is designed exclusively for 2-inch receiver tube openings. It does not fit 1.25-inch receivers. Before ordering, confirm your hitch receiver opening measures 2 inches square. Most Class III, Class IV, and Class V trailer hitches on trucks, SUVs, minivans, and RVs use a 2-inch receiver.
Installation is tool-free for the shank insertion -- slide the shank into the receiver, insert the hitch pin (pin and clip included), and tighten the anti-wobble bolt. No drilling, no wiring, no professional installation needed.
The anti-wobble shank is one of the most important features for highway use. Standard hitch pins leave a small gap between the shank and receiver walls, which causes noticeable rack sway at speed. The Curt 18064's threaded tightening bolt closes that gap mechanically, producing a firmer, quieter connection over long interstate miles.
Built-in reflectors are positioned at the outermost point of the rack, which is critical when the loaded rack extends your vehicle's rear profile. This is a legal visibility requirement in many states for any load-carrying accessory that extends behind the bumper.
With the arms folded flat, the Curt 18064 stores compactly against a garage wall or in an RV basement bay. The fold-flat design also reduces aerodynamic drag when driving empty with the rack still attached to the receiver.
