Trailer Hitch for a 2009 Honda Accord Sedan and a Bike Rack
Question:
I like the bike wing for 2 bikes, but I have been thinking of carrying 3 bikes. What would you suggest for the same vehicle?

Expert Reply:
For your 2009 Honda Accord sedan I recommend Curt trailer hitch # C11496. With the other hitch options there is an additional part you would need to be able to use a bike rack but not with this hitch.
This and all of the hitches for your Accord are Class I hitches with 1-1/4 inch receivers. Class I trailer hitches are rated for a maximum of 2 bikes because it cannot handle additional weight that is further away from the receiver. I have linked the Class I compatible 2-bike racks for you. I like the Curt # C18085 because it is compatible with many bike styles. I have linked videos of the hitch and bike rack for you.
If you need to carry more that just 2 bikes let me know how many and I can find a solution for you.
