Expert Reply:
Your best bet would be a dual receiver like the Curt Ball Mount # D210 you were looking at. The tongue weight capacity of the reciever is rated up to 750 lbs. Keep in mind that the bikes and bike rack will add to the tongue weight on the ball mount.
The ball mount will use a ball with a 1 inch diameter shank. Like the 2 inch ball # 63845 or the 1-7/8 inch ball # 19260.
