Will the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT & Kuat Sherpa 2.0 Fit A 2015 Ford Fiesta With A Class I Hitch?
Question:
Will the Thule doubletrack pro 2 or Kuat Sherpa 2.0 fit a 2015 Ford Fiesta sedan? Currently I have installed the Draw-Tite sport hitch #24910 installed. If these racks will not work, which brand will work best for this hitch? Specifically looking for a platform rack as I have a step through frame on a carbon bike.

I am happy to inform you that both the Thule DoubleTrack Pro XT # TH92BJ and the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # SH12G will fit on your 2015 Ford Fiesta Sedan.
The Draw-Tite Sportframe # 24910 is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver opening. Both the # TH9054 and the # SH12G are rated to fit Class I hitches with 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" receiver openings.
I would like to caution you that frame mount bike racks aren't the best option for carbon frame bikes. Carbon frames can be easily damaged. A wheel mount option such as the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # SH12G is one of our best bikes racks and your best option. The Sherpa also happens to weighs 3 pounds less than the Thule DoubleTrack.
