Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2013 Mercedes E350 For Bike Rack
Question:
I have a 2013 MB E 350. I also have a Thule 4 bike rack similar to TH 9043 for a 2inch receiver. Do you have a hitch that will fit the MB and the bike rack that is designed for a 2inch receiver? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The only hitches we have for your 2013 Mercedes Benz E350 are 1-1/4 inch sized like the part # C11001. This hitch can only carry up to 2 bikes at a time max due to the lighter duty nature of it.
So only option we'd have is a new hitch and 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.
