Looking at the pictures on our product page, I believe what you are talking about is the crossbar having a bend (curve) to it, not the tray (cradle).

I have included a picture I took of the rack in the warehouse showing the bend (curve). The cradles for the wheels on the bike rack also have a curve to them. view full answer...
