Review of the Curt Hitch Bike Racks on a 2015 Toyota Sienna


Today on our two thousand fifteen Toyota Sienna, we're doing a test fit of the Curt Premium Hanging Style Four Bike Rack. Part number for that is C one eight zero six four. Now we already have our bike on the rack, we're first going to show you how we strap that down. So we've got two cradles holding our bike in place with three straps, two on our frame here and then one as our anti-sway strap in the back. Its going to keep a lot of the shaking movement out of the bike as you're heading down the road, so you won't cause damage to your bike rack or vehicle. So to remove those you're just going to pull down and lift up . And we're going to save that anti-sway strap for last. Then we can pull our bike off the rack and set it off to the side.

I always suggest that you replace any of the straps that you have left loose, so you don't lose or damage any of them. Now we'll take a few measurements. So our first measurement is our overall length with our arms hanging out. We're adding about thirty inches to the back of the vehicle. Now if we wanted to park in a close quarters parking spot, like a parking garage, we can come up here, remove our pin and clip .. Lower the arms down ...

And then replace that pin and clip there. That reduces our overall to about eleven and a half inches now. Our ground clearance is going to be about nine and a half inches. Our closest point is going to be this metal plate back here at about three and a quarter inches. Now while we're down here we can talk about the tilt-away feature. To do so we're just going to lift up on this clip, and undo the screw here in the back.

We can remove the pin and let that hang down, pull up on our T-pin, and we can tilt that away. This will allow us full access to the back hatch of our vehicle to get anything in or out that we may need, and we also have enough room to stay in between the two to get out larger items. So we'll close that up. To secure your bike rack back into place, we'll just lift up until that T-pin fits in it's slot. We will replace our pin here, and our clip, and then we can tighten down our screw in the back. That's going to hold that mast into place, so we don't have a lot of movement there. Now down at our hitch, we do have a two inch hitch on this vehicle, that's what's going to be adaptable for this bike rack. We also have an anti-rattle bolt and clip, that's what's going to keep a lot of the shake and play out of the bike rack as you're heading down the road, so you're not going to see much movement or hear much noise. So that's going to be our completed look at the Curt Premium Hanging Style Four Bike Rack.

Again, that part number is C one eight zero six four on our two thousand fifteen Toyota Sienna. Let's see how it does on the test course. Here on our test course we'll start by going through the slalom. This is going to show us the side to side action which simulates turning corners, or evasive maneuvers. Once we get to the alternating speed bumps we'll see the twisting action. This will simulate hitting a curb, or pothole, or driving over uneven pavement. Once we get to the full speed bumps, we'll see the up and down action. This will be just like driving in and out of the parking lot, garage, or driveway.
