Keeping Bike Tires Straight when Using Reese Bike Rack 63120 on a 2017 Toyota Corolla
Question:
Im curious if this will work with the curt hitch or not? Also, how does the front tire stay straight with this type of holder? Do I need tie down cables or rope?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the Reese bike rack # 63120 will fit Curt trailer hitch # C11265 on your 2017 Toyota Corolla. This bike rack does not have the ability to keep the bike tires straight while driving. In order to keep the tires straight you can use hook and loop strap # SR54FR. I have linked a video featuring these straps for you.
Since you have the Curt hitch you will also need to use stabilization strap # 18050 per Curt's warranty requirements. I have included a link to a video showing how it works as well.
