Do I Need A Drawbar For Hitch If I Use Hitch Mounted Bike Rack 2018 Mazda 6
Question:
I looking at the two hitches for my 2018 Mazda6 to use only for a bike rack. The description says a drawbar is sold separately. What is a drawbar? Does not seem I would need adding a RockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo bike rack. Thank you

If you are looking at the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Item # C11356, the drawbar is sold separately and not included. You will not need this part if you are using a hitch mounted bike rack such as the RockyMounts HighNoon FC Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount # RKY87RR, or any other hitch mounted accessories.
A drawbar (or sometimes called ball mount), is the metal piece that slides into the hitch opening to provide the attachment point for a hitch ball for trailer towing.
