Least Visible Hitch Recommendation for 2017 Honda CR-V

Question:

I am interested in the least visible hitch possible for a 2017 Honda CR-V. It will not be used for towing - it will only be used to hold a bike rack. I live in McKinney, TX and would also need someone to install. Can you help?

Of the hitches available for your 2017 Honda CR-V the best option will be the Draw Tite hitch part # 36597 which is a confirmed fit and since it's the smaller 1-1/4 inch hitch size it will be the least visible and still a great option for carrying a bike rack.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 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.
