Dakine Pickup Pad DLX Curve - Cascade Camo (Small) | Curved Tailgate Bike Pad for 5 Bikes

Overview

The Dakine Pickup Pad DLX Curve in Cascade Camo brings a focused, trail-ready solution for curved tailgates on late-model Dodge and Ford trucks. Instead of a generic rack, you get a tailored pad that cushions bikes and keeps them stable from trailhead to shuttle day. The DLX Curve design blends rugged capability with a clean, confident look that suits both practical use and urban commutes.

Fit, capacity, and versatility

Available in two sizes, the small model spans 54 inches and accommodates up to five bikes, while the larger variant reaches 62 inches and handles seven bikes. Both versions use individual bike anchor straps and a robust webbing system to secure gear during drive time.

Security, ease, and fast setup
