Expert Reply:
For the Curt hitch part # C11127 you have installed on your 2015 Mazda 5 the Swagman XTC part # S64670 is a solid rack that works well. My Dad has one he's been using for several years and he still likes it.
In that price range I would recommend the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z over the XTC though. They function both similarly but the big advantage of the Trail Rider is that it's very stable. It has far less movement than all bike racks in it's price range.
