Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendation for 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
Question:
I am looking for a hitch that will hold 2 mountain bikes on my 2016 Hyuandi Sonata Hybrid. Which hitch would be work and what bike rack do you recommend to us with it. I am trying to decide what would work best so I would likie to ask you if there is truck mounted bike rack that would work on the this model of the Sonata hybrid?

For your 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid I recommend the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 24965. This is a 1-1/4 inch hitch that can easily carry a 2 bike rack. This is also the best priced option we have for you. I like the Draw-Tite hitch as it will not require an additional support strap when carrying a bike rack like the Curt hitches do.
I really like the Saris SuperClamp EX part # SA4025F. This is a lightweight platform rack (which is normally an unheard of combo). That means it'll be easy to install and remove from your vehicle since it's light, but also it'll be very easy to load bikes on since it's a platform rack.
This rack also only touches bikes at the tire so it protects any damage to delicate frame materials or finishes.
