Is a 4-Bike Rack Possible for 2015 Honda Fit?

Question

Question:

Hi, I was looking at the TH934XTR 4 bike rack, but noticed it says it can only carry two bikes when used on a Honda Fit, due to the smaller hitch size. Do you have any racks that can carry 4 bikes 2 adult, 2 kids on a Honda Fit? Thank you!

Expert Reply:

Your 2015 Honda Fit will not have a bike rack available that can carry 4 bikes because only Class I hitches will fit your vehicle, and Class I hitches such as the Draw-Tite # 24920 that fits your Honda have a maximum capacity of 2 bikes. There are 3-bike trunk-mounted racks for your Fit such as the Saris Guardian # SAR43FR.

Additionally, please note that when using a hanging rack like the # SAR43FR you will need bike frame adapter bar # 64005 if your bike is dual-suspension, has a step-through frame or you want to carry a small children's bike. The bar will give those bikes a horizontal mounting point so they can be carried by the rack.

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…
