Bike Rack for Class I Trailer Hitch on 2016 Scion iA

Question:

Which bike racks will fit this hitch? Making sure the pin hole lines up, some racks have a longer input part.

The Curt Hitch # C11421 that fits your 2016 Scion iA is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver, which means you need a bike rack with a 1-1/4" shank that is compatible with a Class I hitch. Please note that you are also limited to carrying two bikes with a Class I hitch.

I highly recommend checking out the Hollywood Racks Trail Rider # HR200Z, which uses padded hooks to grasp your bikes by the top tubes and adjustable wheel mounts with straps to secure your rear wheels. It has a mast which tilts down for easier access to your rear cargo area and also has folding arms to make storage easier.

The Trail Rider has a shank that rises 5", giving your rack additional ground clearance and has a weight capacity of 45 lbs per bike.
