Curt ActiveLink SE Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack

 

The CURT ActiveLink SE Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack is designed for customers who want a faster, easier way to bring bikes along for weekend rides, trail trips, family travel, and outdoor adventures. Built around CURT's ActiveLink hitch-mounted system, this bike rack helps simplify attachment and removal compared to traditional hitch accessories. It is a strong choice for customers who want secure bike transport without fighting with hard-to-line-up hitch components every time the rack is installed.

The ActiveLink design makes this rack especially convenient for customers who regularly switch between hitch accessories. The shank provides an integrated resting point that helps line up the attachment and hitch pin holes, making installation feel more controlled and less awkward. Instead of crawling behind the vehicle and struggling to hold everything in place, customers can drop the bike rack into position and secure it more easily.

The CURT ActiveLink SE Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack is built to carry bikes securely while helping protect the frames during travel. Adjustable rubber cradles help accept different frame tube sizes, while a rubber bumper pad on the vertical support tube helps reduce scuffs and scratches. This makes the rack useful for customers carrying bikes to local paths, campgrounds, parks, trailheads, vacation stops, and everyday recreation areas.

Access and storage are also important parts of the design. The tilt-away feature allows easier access to the rear cargo area when the rack is unloaded, making it more practical for SUVs, crossovers, and other vehicles where rear hatch access matters. The arms fold down when the rack is not in use, helping reduce the rack's profile during storage or when driving without bikes loaded.

CURT adds anti-rattle features to help reduce noise and movement during travel. The anti-rattle hitch pin and anti-rattle hand wheel help keep the rack more stable, while the plastic lining on the shank helps suppress vibration. Built-in reflectors on the ends of the arms add visibility, giving the rack a more complete and travel-ready design for customers carrying bikes behind the vehicle.

The rack is constructed from steel and protected with a dual E-coat and carbide black powder coat finish for outdoor durability. Two-bike and four-bike options allow customers to choose the right setup for solo rides, couples, families, or group outings. Whether customers are upgrading for trail riding, family bike trips, camping weekends, outdoor recreation, road trips, or easier hitch-mounted bike transport, the CURT ActiveLink SE Hitch-Mounted Bike Rack delivers convenient bike carrying with secure ActiveLink attachment and practical travel-ready features.
