Economical Swing Away Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2014 Honda CR-V
Question:
I was wondering about the best bike rack for my Honda CRV 2014 EX. I have a cruiser bike Hampton that currently has a child seat on it. It will only have this for another 1-2 years but with it, the weight is @45 lbs. I really dont think trunk mounts are recommended, so I would need a hitch one. I would love one that allows for access to the back, but they are really expensive- any other options for an inexpensive rack?

The best priced swing away bike rack we offer is the Sportrack Ridge Swing part # SR2415. This rack can swing away when loaded to give you complete access to the rear of the vehicle. The weight capacity of this rack 140 lbs.
For a hitch you would want the Draw Tite hitch part # 75742. This has been confirmed to work on your vehicle and would work well with the with the Sportrack bike rack.
