Which Bike Racks are Compatible with Class I Hitches for 2016 Mazda CX-3
Question:
I will be using this hitch for Yakima bike rack on a 2016 Mazda CX-3. Can you tell me distance from outside of hitch to the stop for the Draw-Tite I Sport Frame Receiver so I can be sure hitch will take the rack?

Sounds like you have a Class II bike rack by Yakima and would like to install it in the Draw Tite hitch part # 24933 which is a confirmed fit for the 2016 Mazda CX-3. Nearly all Yakima 1-1/4 inch hitches are Class II only so there's no way I can recommend a hitch that would work with your bike rack since all of the hitches for your vehicle are Class I.
Only solution would be to go with a bike rack that is Class I compatible.
The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
