How to Attach a 1-1/4 Inch Hitch Bike Rack to a RV Bumper Hitch
Question:
Is there a 1 1/4 bumper hitch to fit my RV 4 bumper. If I use a 2 hitch I have to use an adapter witch makes the bike rack stick to far out.

I would recommend to use the Brophy Hitch Reducer, part # HT02. This reducer will insert into a 2 inch hitch receiver on your RV and allow you use your 1-1/4 inch hitch bike rack. It will extend out from the original hitch pin hole an extra 3 inches. Hopefully, an extra 3 inches would not cause you any problems.
It comes with a 1/2 inch pin and clip for the hitch accessory, but you will also need a Hidden Hitch 5/8 Inch Pin and Clip, part # PC3 to attach the reducer to the hitch.
There are no RV bumper hitches available in a 1-1/4 inch size. All of the RV hitches start at 2 inch size and go larger.
I am including a link to the page of the RV bumper hitches I have and a link to a video review on the Brophy hitch reducer.
