Compatibility of RockyMounts RKY10003 Bike Rack With Class I Hitch
Question:
Looking at C11367 hitch for my BMW 430i 2019 convertible. Want to attach it to the RKY 10003. It seems hitch is for class 1 and rack class 2. Are they compatible? I want to haul a 45lb ebike and a regular road bike. Thanks

Expert Reply:
According to Curt, their # C11367 Class I hitch is a confirmed fit for your vehicle.
The RockyMounts # RKY10003 MonoRail bike rack you'd looked at is indeed only rated for a Class II hitch, and not a Class I, due to the lower capacity of the Class I hitch. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend using it.
I'd recommend the Thule T2 Pro XTR, part # TH23JV which is compatible with your bikes as well as with the Class I hitch.
I've linked to some demonstration and install videos that you might find helpful.
