Bike Rack Recommendation for a 1-1/4 inch Hitch

Question:

Hi I hope you can help me . Im looking for a bike rack hitch for a 1 1/4 inch hitch. The problem Im having is that I am looking for a small distance from the center of the pin hole to the arm . I drive a fiat and want to keep the size of the car small, without the bulk of a big hitch in the back . I would like help with this .

The Swagman XTC2, part # S64670 is one of the most popular racks because it's so easy to use, and because the rack has an angled shank that would raise the bike rack up by three inches providing additional ground clearance. Because of that, this is the rack I'd recommend for you.

This rack will add about 19-1/2 inches to the rear of your vehicle.

The rack includes an anti-rattle hitch bolt, but a combination anti-rattle hitch lock/cable lock is available separately as part # S64031.
