Question:
Does the above rack have a 2inch male end without having to use a separate hitch adaptor.

Expert Reply:
Thule's EasyFold 2-Bike Platform Rack # TH903202 that you referenced is designed so that it will work fine in both 1-1/4-inch hitches and 2-inch hitches. There is no need to use a hitch adapter like # MT70033. Such adapters tend to introduce more random motion of the installed rack and they also cut your hitch capacity in half.
The brilliantly designed EasyFold carrier is something special. Please check out the linked video.
Apart from fitting both hitch sizes, it also handles very heavy bikes up to 65-lbs each, it works on just about any frame style, it includes a loading ramp (that stores inside the rack) so those heavy electric bikes never have to be lifted, and true to its name it, it easily folds to a compact size for convenient handling. Both the foot-operated tilt mechanism and built-in wheels appear in the photo I linked for you.
