Recommended Single Bike Rack for 2016 Honda Accord Sedan Sport w/ Class I Curt Hitch Installed

Question:

Will this work on a 2016 Honda Accord sport sedan? I just got the curt tow hitch item #C11681 installed on my car and was wondering if this would work without being too low getting in/out of driveways or going over speed bumps?

I have another option for you, but the RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Bike Rack # RKY10007 you were looking at will not work with the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11681 you have installed on your 2016 Honda Accord. This is due to your hitch being a Class I hitch, but the RockMounts rack is not compatible with Class I hitches.

For a similar rack that is compatible I recommend taking a look at the Inno Tire Hold 1 Bike Platform Rack # INH110 as it is rated for use with Class I hitches like yours, and works with bikes that weigh up to 60lbs with tires up to 3" wide. This rack has the shank quite a bit lower than where the bike sits so you shouldn't have any issues with driveways, and will have no issues with speed bumps.

I included a video of the # INH110 for you to take a look at.
