Engineered to provide secure bike transport while protecting both your truck and your bikes, the Tailgate Pad Curve offers a clean, reliable, and easy-to-use system for carrying up to six bikes to the trailhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike traditional tailgate pads, the Curve is shaped to sit flush against the rounded upper edge found on many newer trucks. This design creates full contact across the tailgate for improved stability and protection. \u003cstrong\u003eOwners of newer Ford F-150, Ram, Toyota Tundra, and similar trucks with outward-curving tailgates will benefit from the Curve's tailored fit and secure mounting.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA highly durable tarpaulin outer shell provides excellent resistance against cuts, weather, and UV exposure, while the soft anti-scratch lining protects your truck's paint from wear and abrasion. Along the top edge, six molded rubber retention blocks cradle bike downtubes and help prevent bikes from shifting or contacting one another during transport.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEVOC replaces traditional hook-and-loop straps with flexible TPU ski straps that offer a more secure hold and greater durability. Each strap features a rubber-tipped hook that helps prevent frame scratches and wear. Standard-length straps accommodate most bikes, while extra-long versions provide additional clearance for larger e-bike frames.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe segmented top edge allows the pad to flex independently across multiple sections, conforming more naturally to your truck's tailgate shape. Additional foam padding protects fork lowers and other vulnerable components during transport. Convenient aluminum cam buckles make installation quick and simple, while a dedicated backup camera flap maintains visibility and minimizes sensor interference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in M\/L and XL sizes, the EVOC Tailgate Pad Curve is compatible with mountain bikes, gravel bikes, road bikes, and e-bikes, making it a versatile choice for riders who regularly transport multiple bikes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EVOC Tailgate Pad Curve is a purpose-built transport solution that combines truck-specific fit, premium protection, and secure bike retention for hassle-free travel to every ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurved Tailgate Fit - \u003c\/strong\u003eSpecifically designed to conform to modern pickup trucks with curved tailgate profiles for improved contact and stability.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurable Protective Construction - \u003c\/strong\u003eTarpaulin outer shell resists cuts, water, and UV exposure while the soft inner lining protects vehicle paint.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecure Bike Retention - \u003c\/strong\u003eSix molded rubber blocks and TPU ski straps keep bikes stable and separated during transport.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuick Installation System - \u003c\/strong\u003eAluminum cam buckles allow for fast, secure attachment without complicated strap routing.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCarries Up to Six Bikes - \u003c\/strong\u003eCompatible with mountain, gravel, road, and electric bikes for versatile transport capability.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EVOC Sports US","offers":[{"title":"Black, M\/L","offer_id":48252004696309,"sku":"721722-01-ML","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0483\/9040\/6312\/files\/EVOC_Tailgate_Pad_Curve_Black_ML_Contender_Bicycles.jpg?v=1781200234","url":"https:\/\/contenderbicycles.com\/products\/evoc-tailgate-pad-curve","provider":"Contender Bicycles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
