What Depth of Pin Hole Will Bike Rack Work on for 2019 Acura RDX
Question:
Just had a dealer install a 1-1/4 in hitch on my 2019 Acura RDX The pin hole depth is 3/4 in Seems very short What 2 bike rack can I use? Was shopping for Thule helium pro2 but specs say 1-1/2 in pin hole depth

I have never heard of a trailer hitch receiver with a pin hole depth of just 3/4" and there isn't a bike rack that is going to work with a pin hole at such a short distance.
I know this isn't the news you were looking for but the best option truly is to get the hitch you have removed and install a new one for your 2019 Acura RDX that has a pin hole plenty long enough to use either the Thule or Yakima racks listed above. You can choose from either a 1-1/4" hitch like you have now or 2" hitch, and both of these fit your 2019 RDX:
- 1-1/4 Inch Hitch: Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 36114
- 2 Inch Hitch: Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76268
I have added a link below to our entire selection of bike racks for you to take a look at as well.
