Curry bumper suitable for heavy bike rack/bikes?

Hi there, I've been shopping around for a good bumper w/ receiver hitch and have come up empty handed. However, I live near Curry, and they have this bumper:

In the notes, it says "The bumper is not rated for towing but the tow hook may be used for recovery". I have a pretty heavy dual bike rack and some pretty heavy beach cruisers. Would this bumper hold up?

Thanks :) Greg "finagler" Nagel

Have you seen the Olympic Rock Bumpers? I have one (rated for 2000 lbs I believe the manufacturer's site says) and love it. They have 50 and 57 inch models for different models of Jeep:

Had one on my 98TJ and towed a sandrail on a trailer with all supporting crap....gas...firewood..ect. Never had a problem. They do not come with a place to hook up safety chains though! You'll have no problems with a bike rack and your beach cruisers.

Thanks DD! I'll look into the other makers, but nothing beats buying direct and not having to wait for someone to order it.
