Recommended 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch and Bike Rack For 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV

Question:

I just picked up a 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV and am looking for a 1-1/4" trailer hitch to carry my bikes. I also would like a bike rack that can carry my two lightweight bikes. What do you recommend?

We have exactly what you are looking for.

Starting with the trailer hitch receiver we have the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24956 which is a confirmed fit for your 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV and has the 1-1/4" receiver you were wanting. This hitch has a 200lb tongue weight rating which is perfect for carrying two lightweight bikes like yours.

Moving on to the bike rack I recommend the Thule Apex XT 2 Bike Rack # TH9024XT which can accommodate two bikes weighing up to 37.5lbs each and will fit the above trailer hitch receiver perfectly. This rack has a quite a few nice features such as integrated locks to secure the bike to the rack, and the rack to your trailer hitch, along with anti-sway cradles to keep your bikes from moving around while you are driving.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
