Trailer Hitch Recommendation for a 2015 Honda Pilot for a Bike Rack
Question:
Is there a 2 inch trailer hitch for a 2015 Honda Fit. I only see 1.25 inch. I want to use it with a bike rack that weighs about 110 pounds with bikes on it.

For your 2015 Honda Fit there are only 1-1/4 inch hitches like the Draw Tite # 24920 available. 2 inch hitches are usually only seen on larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks.
This hitch has a 200 lb tongue weight capacity, so as long as your bike rack is compatible with Class I hitches you should be good with the Draw Tite. You may need to upgrade your bike rack though.
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. The rack includes an anti-rattle hitch bolt, but a combination anti-rattle hitch lock/cable lock is available separately as part # S64031.
