Bike Rack Recommendation for Bikes that Have Fenders with a 2014 Honda Accord
Question:
Looking at almost every model you carry for my 2014 Honda accord Sedan.....I notice that with almost every photo....None of the bikes have fenders....We have 2 bikes...Both with fenders.....Are fenders a problem when trying to clamp down the wheel?

It's not a great idea to use a wheel mount style bike rack with bikes that have fenders since the rack is going to be grabbing onto and putting pressure on the fenders. A better solution would be a frame mount bike rack that would not touch the fenders.
A very popular platform bike rack that only touches the frame is the Thule DoubleTrack part # TH92BJ. This would work well for you. I attached a help article on this bike rack for you to check out as well.
If you need a hitch for your 2014 Honda Accord Sedan you would want the Curt part # C11496 which is a confirmed fit.
