  The Thule Helium Aero 3-Bike Rack TH9043 makes an awful nice gift but you are correct that there is a short distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the locking knob - just 4-1/2".

  For all of your alternative framed bikes, I recommend going with a platform style rack like the Saris Freedom # SA4414B. This will be a great rack for you and all your passengers!

The neat thing about the Freedom is the way the cradles pivot and slide up and down the central masts. This allows the rack to grab your bike's tube at the perfect angle. To secure your bikes to your...

• Easiest Tool Recommendation for Installing Hitch Pin of Thule Hitching Post Pro
  The Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack part # TH934XTR that you referenced does use a hitch pin bolt that will require either using the included wrench to install or possibly a socket and ratchet.

• What Size Wrench or Socket for Bolt Head of 8' Cable Lock and Anti-Rattle Hitch Lock # SA984
  I spoke with my contact at Saris and she told me that the size socket/wrench needed for the bolt on the # SA984 that you referenced would be a 19 mm or a 3/4 inch. So the wrench part # PT20104-38524 that you referenced would work with it.
