Best bike rack for trailer hitch?

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by regina.debouse, Dec 9, 2005.

  1. Hi,
    I've just purchased a 2005 CR-V and have the dealer-installed 1
    1/4-inch trailer hitch installed?
    What is the best bike rack available to use with this hitch?
    Wishes include that it would carry 3+ bikes and it might swing down or
    away to allow opening of the rear cargo door (if either is possible).
    Thanks!


    Best regards,

    I have this one that I have used on my Accord and it's been great!

    We have a 2003 Element. We use a Thule 4 bike hitch rack (I don't remember
    the exact model) with a 1/4" hitch. We have never actually used more than 2
    bikes on it, but it does swing down so you can open your rear cargo door.
