Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk
Question:
HI! I have a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trail hawk. I would like to add a bike rack but do not have a trailer hitch. Ive researched your site and came up with these 3 items. I would only be using it for a weeks vacation, traveling 2 hours so Im trying not to spend too much. Do you think these would be what I need? I have 3 bikes. Thanks so much for your time!!

First let's start with a hitch for your 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. For that you would want the Curt hitch part # C13172.
For a great value bike rack that would do a great job carrying your 3 bikes you would want the Swagman Trailhead 3 part # S63365.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
