Expert Reply:
Because carbon fiber framed bikes can be damaged by a bike rack that holds the bike by the frame (and wheels, in your case) a rack like the Thule # TH92BJ DoubleTrack Pro wouldn't be recommended.
I'd recommend a rack that holds the bike bike by the tires, like the Inno Tire Hold, part # INH120. The Tire Hold holds the bikes completely by the tires, and won't touch any of the carbon fiber, so you won't need to worry about your bike getting damaged. The rack is compatible with both 1-1/4 inch and 2 inch hitches. The rack features integrated locks to help deter theft, and if you watch the linked video, you can see my friend Randy go over the additional features the rack offers.
