Specs:
The Race Ready lets you transport 1 bike on your roof rack crossbars. This rack has an upright arm with a locking, adjustable clamp that holds your bike securely by the front wheel and a wheel cage that stabilizes the front wheel during transport. It secures your front and rear wheels with ratcheting straps that slide along the wheel tray to accommodate bikes of different lengths. It clamps to most crossbars, and the upright arm folds down for storage when not in use.
The ratcheting hook on the upright arm holds your bike firmly by the front wheel - no frame contact. The padded hook won't scratch or scuff the tire, and the built-in lock secures the bike to the rack.
It includes a wheel cage that stabilizes the front wheel to prevent shifting during transport.
Both the upright arm and the wheel cage fold down when not in use. This improves overhead clearance so it's easier to park in your garage with the rack installed.
The sliding wheel straps let you quickly secure your front and rear wheels to the carrier. These straps slide along the wheel tray so that you can carry bikes of different lengths.
The Race Ready clamps easily to most crossbars - no tools required. Remove the hand knobs and lower clamps on the front and rear crossbar mounts, position the rack on your crossbars, then replace clamps and tighten the hand knobs.

I am satisfied with the product except the bolts that attract the Swagman roof bike rack to Rhino-Rack VA 2500 Crossbars because the bolts are too short and the spare bolts provided are not enough. I had to go to Home Depot to get the similar bolts to replace all original bolts. Overall, I really love this Swagman Roof bike rack. I already test drive on freeway at speed 65 mph and everything is good and smooth when I checked after I got off from freeway in parking lot. Everything is perfect as advertising. See picture attached from my 2008 Nissan Altima 3.5L V6 SE Sedan.
After a year of having this bike rack and countless uses, I’d highly recommend it. This rack is sturdy and reliable. My only complaint is that one of my ratcheting straps has worn a bit. Otherwise this bike rack is 100% perfect.
Sure said it was compatible with the crossbars I bought. It is not
Arrived on time. Item received in good condition.

Very easy to assemble.
Rack works well and is very dependable, even for long trips. However, using it for a fat bike has the disadvantage of lifting a bike that heavy onto my wife’s SUV roof.
Sturdy and quality construction. Very easy to assemble and mount on vehicle. Holds bike in place very well.
Works great!

Hey Justin, I see that you purchased the Curt roof rack part # C18118 with this bike rack. I was not able to find any reason why they wouldnt be compatible. I am curious and ready to help if you can provide more information.
