Recommending A Hitch For Carrying A Bike Rack For 2021 Subaru Outback
Question:
Hello. I have a 2021 Subaru Outback can you recommend a hitch? Just need it for my bike rack, no towing. Thank you.

I recommend our etrailer class III trailer hitch # e25TR for your 2021 Subaru Outback.
This hitch hides well under the bumper and with the matte black finish, this helps prevent rust and corrosion. This hitch is great for holding a bike rack and with the max tongue weight being 350 pounds, this will handle any 2" bike rack you put on it.
Sounds like you already have a bike rack but I have a great suggestion if not. The Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR with folding arms, Tilting mast and anti-sway cradles. The anti-sway cradles help prevent movement of bikes on the carrier. With a weight capacity of 35 lbs per bike this bike rack is great for your 2021 Subaru Outback. This works great with any 2" Hitch.
