Trailer Hitch and 2 Bike Platform Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Lexus RX 350
Question:
I am planning to purchase a Hollywood Sport rider platform 2 bike rack. Is the 1 1/4 in hitch lighter than the 2 in. Since I am not planning to use the hitch for any other towing which hitch would you recommend? Thanks

The Hollywood Racks Trail Rider part # HR200Z is a great option for platform bike rack that can fit a 1-1/4 inch trailer hitch. It also comes with an adapter to fit a 2 inch hitch which you would need since the hitches for a 2015 Lexus RX 350 are this size. At this price point there really isn't a better bike rack option. This rack works very well and is very stable. Check out the test course video I attached to see how stable it is in the hitch of a vehicle.
For a trailer hitch you'd want the Draw Tite part # 75676 which is a confirmed fit and has the best price of all the available options.
