Question:

For your 2014 Mazda CX-5, I recommend the Swagman Chinook 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # S64683. This will carry two bikes of various frame styles weighing up to 45 lbs each and beach cruisers are normally a heavier bike than many racks can handle. This rack includes the threaded hitch lock and has locking hooks to secure your bikes in place. This rack will also tilt away to allow access to your hatch. I've attached a video for you.

Whether you have ladies bikes or have large fenders on your wheels, this bike rack will work great for you without any additional adapters.
