While we don't have any 1" hitches we do have a great 2" hitch that does fit your 2021 Honda CR-V Touring. It is the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" item # 306-X7345 you were looking at. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Honda with included hardware. This is the only hitch that is confirmed to fit the Touring model. I have linked an installation video below. If you need an adapter because your bike rack fits a 1-1/4" receiver please email me back with your specific model bike rack and I will be happy to find one for you. The Trailer Hitch Reducer 2" to 1-1/4" Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e63YR may work but most bike rack manufacturers make their own.

Yes, it will interfere with your hands free lift gate. This hitch and all others for the varying models of Honda CR-V's need a sensor relocation kit from your local Honda dealer. We have had some customers report success in searching around the rear of their CR-V's trying to find a spot where the sensor will work and not be blocked.
